DESIGN OF COST EFFECTIVE SINGLE CHIP POWER, PFAND VAF METER

Abstract

Energy management is became key thing current days. It is also most required for any sector weather it is
industrial sector or non-industrial sector. Especially for an industrial sector the energy consumption details are much
needed because the expense of the energy consumption is one of the most critical as it takes away more percentages of
revenues. But because of more cost and bigger size of measuring devices it is hard to use such devices as per
requirement. The Energy management process works better only if there is better measuring system otherwise energy
management process cannot perform as per expectation. So, here in this paper multifunctional measuring device is
explained. The device is useful for such applications like energy management, energy audit, distribution system, Process
control, HVAC and building management system and different panels like Electrical panels, DG set panels, motor
control and power control center panels, control and relay panels, switchgear panels etc. The meter explained here is
works with single controller. So the size of the energy measuring IC can be saved and hence size of the device can be
reduced.
