Data Recording and Timestamping
For the Electrical Distribution Monitoring and Alarming application, data recording can occur at various levels. Connected products, depending on the level of sophistication, can record data as follows:
-
Analog and event data recorded and timestamped on board: PowerLogic ION9000, PM8000, and some PowerLogic PM5000 models (PM53xx and PM55xx)
-
Event data recorded and timestamped on board: PowerLogic P5/P3, T300, MasterPacT MTZ, ComPacT NSX
-
No onboard recording; real-time data only. Recording and timestamping is done by a data logger (Cyber Sciences SER 3200/2408), server (ASCO CPMA) or software (EcoStruxure Power Monitoring Expert or Power Operation): entry-level PowerLogic PM5000 models, Acti9 Active, Acti9 iEM3000, PowerLogic PowerTag, TransferPacT Active Automatic, Galaxy UPS, PowerLogic AccuSine PCS+/ PCSn/EVC+/PFV+, PowerLogic PFC, and other equipment (including third-party)
For the Electrical Distribution Monitoring and Alarming application, a time accuracy of ±10 milliseconds is recommended, in particular for highly critical applications. For less critical applications, 1 s is acceptable.
