PM5000 Series: Functions and Characteristics
PM5000 Series: Functions and Characteristics
The PowerLogic™ PM5000 power meter is the ideal fit for cost management
applications. It provides the measurement capabilities needed to allocate energy usage,
perform tenant metering and sub-billing, pin-point energy savings, optimize equipment
efficiency and utilization, and perform a high level assessment of the power quality of the
electrical network.
In a single 96 x 96 mm unit, with a graphical display, all three phases, neutral and
ground can be monitored simultaneously.
The bright, anti-glare display features large characters and powerful backlighting
for easy reading even in extreme lighting conditions and viewing angles.
Easy to understand menus, text in 8 selectable languages, icons and graphics create
a friendly environment to learn about your electrical network.
Highly accurate devices with global billing certifications.
Applications
Cost management: Cost saving opportunities become clear once you understand
how and when your facility uses electricity. The PowerLogic™ PM5000 series meters
PowerLogic™ PM5000 Series meter are ideal for:
• Sub billing / tenant metering: allows a landlord, property management firm,
condominium association, homeowners association, or other multi-tenant
property to bill tenants for individual measured utility (electricity) usage. MID
approved meters for billing applications across Europe.
• Cost allocation: allocate energy costs between different departments (HVAC,
indoor and outdoor lighting, refrigeration, etc), different parts of an industrial
process or different cost centres. Cost allocation systems can help you save
money by making changes to your operation, better maintaining your equipment,
taking advantage of pricing fluctuations, and managing your demand.
Network management: Improving reliability of the electrical network is key for
success in any business. Monitoring values such as voltage levels, harmonic
distortion and voltage unbalance will help you to ensure proper operation and
maintenance of your electrical network and equipment. PowerLogic™ PM5000 series
meters are the perfect tool for:
• Basic Power Quality monitoring: power quality phenomena can cause
undesirable effects such as heating in transformers, capacitors, motors,
generators and misoperation of electronic equipment and protection devices.
• Min/ Max monitoring (with timestamp): understanding when electrical
parameters, such as voltage, current and power demand, reach maximum and
minimum values will give you the insight to correctly maintain your electrical
network and assure equipment will not be damaged.
• Alarming: alarms help you to be aware of any abnormal behavior on the
electrical network in the moment it happens.
Commercial reference numbers • WAGES monitoring: take advantage of the input metering on PM5000 meters
PM5100 METSEPM5100 to integrate measurements from 3rd party devices such as water, air, gas,
electricity or steam, meters.

applications, where loads are non-linear (i.e. switching power supplies on computers/
servers), measuring neutral current is essential to avoid overload and resulting
outage. In addition, the PM5500 provides a calculated ground current value, not
available in meters with 3 CTs.
These types of power quality parameters help to identify the source of harmonics
that can harm transformers, capacitors, generators, motors and electronic

relays (PM5300).
The PM5000 series keeps an alarm log with the active and historical alarms with date
and time stamping.
Load timer
A load timer can be set to count load running hours based on a minimum current
withdraw, adjustable to monitor and advise maintenance requirements on the load.
