Reducing Industrial Electricity Penalties with Class 1.0 Sub-Metering & Modbus
Industrial manufacturing plants often incur tens of thousands of rupees in monthly utility penalties due to low Power Factor (PF < 0.90) and contracted Maximum Demand (MD) breaches.

1. Multi-Parameter Electrical Panel Monitoring

Our 3-Phase Digital Energy Meters measure True RMS Voltage, Phase Currents, Active Power (kW), Reactive Power (kVAR), Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), and Power Factor.

Key Technical Details:
  • Class 1.0 accuracy compliant with IEC 62053-21 electricity metering standards
  • Split-core current transformers (CTs) allow zero-downtime installation
  • Automated demand-spike alerts dispatched before reaching utility thresholds
Conclusion & Architectural Summary

Continuous sub-metering and proactive power factor management deliver typical investment payback periods of under 4 months.
