Complex Loads, Power Consumption Measurement and Peak Load Monitoring
Experiments on reducing peak loads through measurements with active-current and maximum-demand meters demonstrate how the load on a mains supply network can be reduced and evenly distributed over a 24-hour period. An analysis of the power supply grid and connected consumers (loads) is necessary for effective use of the measurement techniques involved. Accordingly, each experiment permits a detailed investigation of static, dynamic, symmetric and asymmetric loads.
- Measurement with active and reactive energy meters:
- For symmetric and asymmetric RL loads
- In the event of a phase failure
- In the event of over-compensation (RC load)
- For active loads
- In the event of energy-flow reversal
- Three-phase consumers with star and delta connections (R, L, C, RL, RC and RLC loads)
- Determination of the first and second power maxima
- Determination of the power maximum in the event of an asymmetric load
- Recording of load profiles
