Power Controller: parameters
Function parameters
Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Average power limit | Active power limit defining whether to disconnect/reconnect loads. |
| Measurement time | Time interval during which power consumption is recorded and the average value calculated. The average value is compared with the set average power limit. |
| Number of loads/generators monitored | Number of loads/generators monitored. The system checks that the number of configured loads is consistent with this value... |
| External synchronisation signal | Signal defining when to start the measurement time. |
Load parameters (General)
Element | Description |
|---|---|
User type | Load type. If set as generator, the load is excluded from the function algorithm. |
| Enabled | Includes/excludes the load from the function algorithm |
| Name | Name assigned to the load |
| Power consumption | Rated power of the load |
| Disconnection priority | Position of the load in the load disconnection sequence. Priority 1 corresponds to the first load to be disconnected. To change the disconnection priority, use the mouse to select and drag the graphical representation of the load to the chosen disconnection position (e.g. drag the load to the first place to assign priority 1). |
| Minimum reconnection time | Minimum load connection time to avoid power-on/power-off too close together. |
| Disconnection time | Minimum disconnection time to avoid frequent power-on and off. Maximum disconnection time to avoid prolonged disconnections. |
| Time window | Period of the day during which the load cannot be disconnected. During that period the function algorithm excludes the load. |
Load parameters (Signals)
Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Signal status/Commands > Contact | Device cable used for signal.
|
| Signal status > Meaning | (only if the device used for the signal is a circuit breaker and the optional status signal is activated).
|
| Signal status > Polarity | Active open: if the input contact is open, the function interprets the load as active (closed). Active Closed: if the input contact is closed, the logic interprets the load as active (closed). |
| Signal status > Delay | Delay in seconds before the signal is processed after reception |
