Capabilities of the PM870 During an Event
The PM870 calculates rms magnitudes, based on 128 data points per cycle, every 1/2
cycle. This ensures that even sub-cycle duration rms variations are not missed.
cycle. This ensures that even sub-cycle duration rms variations are not missed.
The power meter is configured with 12 default voltage disturbance alarms for all voltage
channels. Current sag and swell alarms are available by configuring custom alarms. A
maximum of 12 disturbance alarms are available. When the PM870 detects a sag or swell,
it can perform the following actions:
channels. Current sag and swell alarms are available by configuring custom alarms. A
maximum of 12 disturbance alarms are available. When the PM870 detects a sag or swell,
it can perform the following actions:
•
Perform a waveform capture with a resolution from 185 cycles at 16 samples per
cycle on one channel down to 3 cycles at 128 samples per cycle on all six channels of
the metered current and voltage inputs (see Figure 8–1 on page 63). Use PowerLogic
software to set up the event capture and retrieve the waveform.

the metered current and voltage inputs (see Figure 8–1 on page 63). Use PowerLogic
software to set up the event capture and retrieve the waveform.
•
Record the event in the alarm log. When an event occurs, the PM870 updates the
alarm log with an event date and time stamp with 1 millisecond resolution for a sag or
swell pickup, and an rms magnitude corresponding to the most extreme value of the
sag or swell during the event pickup delay. Also, the PM870 can record the sag or swell
dropout in the alarm log at the end of the disturbance. Information stored includes: a
dropout time stamp with 1 millisecond resolution and a second rms magnitude
corresponding to the most extreme value of the sag or swell. Use PowerLogic software
to view the alarm log.
NOTE: The Power Meter display has a 1 second resolution.
