ibaPQU-S is a modular system to measure power quality parameters using ibaPQU-S as central unit.

ibaPQU-S measures raw values such as current and voltage in sync with the grid and calculates the characteristic values according to IEC 61000-4-30 Ed. 3 Class A. Characteristic values include:

  • Frequency

  • RMS and maximum value, rectified value, form factor, crest factor

  • FFT (harmonics, interharmonics up to 50th order)

  • THD (Total Harmonic Distorsion)

  • Phase values (U/I phase angle to the reference voltage)

  • Power values (active power, apparent power, reactive power, cos θ, electric energy, power factor for individual lines and for the total grid)

  • Symmetrical components (positive, negative and zero sequence component) and current unbalance

  • Flicker (according to IEC 61000-4-15, short-term, long-term)

  • Event detection (voltage dip, voltage swell, voltage interruption, rapid voltage changes, mains signalling event)

In addition, ibaPQU-S calculates the following values:

  • Commutation notches

  • Flicker for currents

  • Symmetrical components (positive, negative and zero sequence component) and current unbalance

ibaPQU-S is suitable for the following grids:

  • DC

  • 50 Hz

  • 60 Hz

  • User-defined networks with a frequency between 10 and 80 Hz
