Hardware reference PowerLogic™ PM5500 / PM5600 / PM5700 series
Digital outputs
The meter is equipped with two Form A digital outputs (D1, D2).
You can configure the digital outputs for use in the following applications:
• switching applications, for example, to provide on/off control signals for
switching capacitor banks, generators, and other external devices and
equipment
• demand synchronization applications, where the meter provides pulse signals
to the input of another meter to control its demand period
• energy pulsing applications, where a receiving device determines energy
usage by counting the kWh pulses coming from the meter’s digital outputs
Refer to Device specifications, page 219 for the voltage limits of the digital
outputs. For higher voltage applications, use an external relay as the switching
circuit.
Digital inputs
The meter is equipped with four digital inputs (S1 to S4) or two digital inputs (S1 &
S2)*.
NOTE: *Available in specific meter models. Refer to Features differentiation
matrix for PM5500 / PM5600 / PM5700 series, page 20 for the availability.
You can configure the digital inputs for use in status monitoring or input metering
applications.
The meter’s digital inputs require an external voltage source to detect the digital
input’s on/off state. The meter detects an on state if the external voltage appearing
at the digital input is within its operating range.
Refer to Device specifications, page 219 for the external voltage sources to detect
the digital input’s on/off state.
Analog inputs
The meter is equipped with two analog inputs (A1 & A2)*.
NOTE: *Available in specific meter models. Refer to Features differentiation
matrix for PM5500 / PM5600 / PM5700 series, page 20 for the availability.
The analog inputs interpret an incoming analog current signal from transducers.
For analog input operation, the meter processes an analog input signal and
provides the resulting scaled value.
The meter measures the current using standard 4 - 20 mA analog transducers.

evidence that the device has been physically tampered with:
• Physical revenue-lock switch on the meter is used to help prevent
unauthorized access to the meter, parameter values and settings.
• Meter lock status indicators are used to determine if the meter is revenue
locked, i.e. LED lock status indicator on device and revenue lock icon on the
display.
• Multiple anti-tamper sealing points are used to help prevent access and
leaves evidence of tampering.
See “Revenue locking”, page 216 for details about physically locking and sealing
the device.
Configuration
These security capabilities support the analysis of security events, help protect the
device from unauthorized alteration and records configuration changes and user
account events:
• Internal time synchronization.
• Meter configuration event logging.
• Timestamps, including date and time, match the meter clock.
• Internal FTP site to store files in the meter’s flash memory, such as:
webpages, COMTRADE records and firmware files.
User accounts
These security capabilities help enforce authorizations assigned to users,
segregation of duties and least privilege:
• User authentication is used to identify and authenticate software processes
and devices managing accounts.
• Least privilege configurable in multiple dimensions: read, peak demand reset,
time sync, test mode, meter configuration and security communications
configuration.
• User account lockout with 5 unsuccessful login attempts.
• Administrators can override user authorizations by deleting their account.
Hardening
These security capabilities help prohibit and restrict the use of unnecessary
functions, protocols and/or services:
• Least functionality can be applied to prohibit and restrict the use of
unnecessary functions, protocols and/or services.
• Port numbers can be changed from default values to lower the predictability
of port use.

Ethernet communications
The meter supports Modbus TCP, BACnet/IP, EtherNet/IP, HTTP / HTTPS4, SNTP,
SNMP, SMTP, FTP / FTPS4, DNP3 protocols and can communicate at data
speeds up to 100 Mbps through its Ethernet communications port.
The meter supports a single IP address between two 10/100Base-T Ethernet
ports. The second Ethernet port functions as an Ethernet switch, which allows you
to have shorter Ethernet cable runs between the meters without requiring
additional Ethernet routers or repeaters. This helps simplify network connections
and reduce installation time and costs.
The meter supports a maximum of 128 concurrent TCP/IP connections, that are
shared between HTTP / HTTPS4, FTP / FTPS4, Modbus TCP and other TCP/IP
protocols.
The meter supports a maximum of three concurrent connections (sessions) using
the DNP3 protocol.
Ethernet configuration
In order to use Ethernet communications, you must configure your device’s IP
address; you must also configure the subnet and gateway information if required
by your network.
NOTE: For meters that do not have a display, you must configure each one
separately in order to set a unique IP address for each device.
You need to enter network information for any Ethernet servers used by the
device.
NOTE: Contact your network system administrator for your IP address and
other Ethernet network configuration values.
Configure your device’s Ethernet settings by using the display or directly
connecting to your meter and using a web browser to access the device’s
webpages. Modify your meter’s Ethernet settings to those provided by your
network system administrator before connecting the device to your local area
network (LAN).
After the meter’s Ethernet port is configured and connected to the LAN, you can
use ION Setup to configure other meter setup parameters.

BACnet/IP
BACnet/IP protocol allows communication between the components of a building
automation and control system (for example, HVAC, lighting control, security
systems and related equipment).
The BACnet/IP protocol defines a number of services that are used to
communicate between devices and the objects that are acted upon by those
services.
Term Definition
APDU Application protocol data unit, that data portion of a BACnet
message.
COV, COV increment Change of value, sets the amount by which a value has to change in
order for the meter to send a subscription notification.
Object Represents the device and device data. Each object has a type (for
example, analog input or binary input) and has a number of
properties.
HRB1684301-12 79
PowerLogic™ PM5500 / PM5600 / PM5700 series Communications
Term Definition
Subscription A relationship between a BACnet client and the meter, so that when
the present value property of an object changes on the meter, a
notification is sent to the client.
Subscription notification The message the meter sends to indicate a COV event has occurred.
Unconfirmed message A message for which the device does not expect an answer.

By default, SNMP communication is enabled and SNMP trapping is disabled. Use
the meter’s webpages to enable / disable SNMP and configure SNMP
parameters.
Supported requests
Your meter supports get and get-next requests (read-only).
MIB file
The MIB file is a human-readable text file. Besides being required by your NMS,
you can use it to determine the objects the meter supports and their object IDs.
SNMP requires that you load your meter’s MIB file (available for download from
www.se.com) into the NMS. The MIB filename is SchneiderPM5xxx_Vyy_zz.MIB,
where yy is the major revision and zz is the minor revision.
Your meter is compliant with MIB-II as defined by the standard MIB file RFC 1213.
You must install RFC 1213, which is required to read basic network information for
the meter (for example, TCP/IP traffic or number of packets received), if it is not
included with your SNMP manager software.

WAGES monitoring
WAGES monitoring allows you to record and analyze all energy sources and
utilities usage.
Your system may use several different types of energy. For example, you may
consume steam or compressed air for industrial processes, electricity for lights
and computers, water for cooling and natural gas for heating. WAGES monitoring
collects the usage information from all these different energy sources to enable a
more complete energy analysis.
WAGES information can help you:
• Identify losses or inefficiencies.
• Modify demand to reduce costs.
• Optimize energy source usage.

WAGES example
This example shows WAGES monitoring for a water flow meter.
You can connect your meter’s digital input to a transducer that sends a pulse for
every 15 kiloliters (4000 US Gal) of water. After configuring an input metering
channel and assigning it to the digital input, the meter is able to detect and record
the incoming pulses. An energy management system can then use the information
from the meter to perform WAGES analysis.

Input metering
Your meter’s digital inputs can be used to count pulses from transducers and
convert the pulses to energy measurements.
Your meter’s input metering channels count pulses received from the digital inputs
assigned to that channel. The incoming pulses are used in calculating and
measuring consumption data (e.g., BTU, kWh, L, kg). Each channel must have the
following values configured to match the pulse data:
• Pulse Weight: the pulses per unit value.
• Unit Code: the unit of measure associated with the monitored value.
• Demand Code: for time-based values (such as kWh), this provides the
associated demand units (kW) for demand calculations; for other values
(such as kg), this can be configured to provide rate information (kg/h or kg/s).
• Mode: whether a pulse is based on a complete pulse or a transition.
For example, if each complete pulse represents 125 Wh, you can configure for Wh
pulsing as follows:
• Pulse Weight = pulses/Wh = 1/125 = 0.008
• Unit Code = Wh
• Demand Code = kW (this is automatically set)
• Mode = pulse
If you want to configure for kWh pulsing, you must adjust the pulse weight
calculation and unit code as follows:
• Pulse Weight = pulses/kWh = 1/0.125 = 8
• Unit Code = kWh

Analog inputs
Applicable only in PM5570 meter model.
The analog inputs are typically used to measure flow rates, temperatures,
pressures, rotations, and fluid levels through electrical signals from transducers.
For analog input operation, your meter processes an analog input signal and
provides the resulting scaled value. Your meter’s analog inputs can measure
current using standard 4 - 20 mA analog transducers.
You need to configure analog inputs’s minimum and maximum values. Analog
inputs may show a value below zero scale if an open circuit is detected on the
input.

Resets PowerLogic™ PM5500 / PM5600 / PM5700 series
Resets
Meter resets
Resets allow you to clear various accumulated parameters stored on your meter
or reinitialize the meter or meter accessories.
Meter resets clear your meter’s onboard data logs and other related information.
Resets are typically performed after you make changes to the meter’s basic setup
parameters (such as frequency, VT/PT or CT settings) to clear invalid or obsolete
data in preparation for putting the meter into active service.
Meter Initialization
Meter Initialization is a special command that clears the meter’s logged data,
counters and timers.
It is common practice to initialize the meter after its configuration is completed,
before adding it to an energy management system.
After configuring all the meter setup parameters, navigate through the different
meter display screens and make sure the displayed data is valid then perform
meter initialization.

Alarms
Alarms overview
An alarm is the meter’s means of notifying you when an alarm condition is
detected, such as an error or an event that falls outside of normal operating
conditions. Alarms are typically setpoint-driven and can be programmed to
monitor certain behaviors, events or unwanted conditions in your electrical
system.
You can configure your meter to generate and display high, medium and low
priority alarms when predefined events are detected in the meter’s measured
values or operating states. Your meter also logs the alarm event information.
The meter ships with some alarms already enabled from the factory. Other alarms
need to be configured before the meter can generate alarms.
Customize meter alarms as required, such as changing the priority. You can also
create custom alarms using the advanced features of your meter.
Alarm types
Your meters supports a number of different alarm types.

you must re-enable the alarm using the display or ION Setup.
*Available in specific meter models. Refer to Features differentiation matrix for PM5500 / PM5600 /
PM5700 series, page 20 for the availability.
Standard alarms
Standard alarms are setpoint-driven alarms which monitor certain behaviors,
events or unwanted conditions in your electrical system.
Standard alarms have a detection rate equal to the 50/60 meter cycle, which is
nominally 1 second if the meter’s frequency setting is configured to match the
system frequency (50 or 60 Hz).
Many of the standard alarms are three-phase alarms. Alarm setpoints are
evaluated for each of the three phases individually, but the alarm is reported as a
single alarm. The alarm pickup occurs when the first phase exceeds the alarm
pickup magnitude for the pickup time delay. The alarm is active as long as any
phase remains in an alarm state. The alarm dropout occurs when the last phase
drops below the dropout magnitude for the dropout time delay.

Multi-tariffs PowerLogic™ PM5500 / PM5600 / PM5700 series
Multi-tariffs
Multi-tariff
The multi-tariff feature allows you to set up different tariffs for storing energy
values.
The energy values for different tariffs are stored in registers that correspond to
each of those tariffs.
Multi-tariff example
The multi-tariff feature can be used when a utility has set up tariff schedules with
different rates based on what day or time of day energy is consumed.
Power
Time
Cost
T1 T2 T3 T4
T1 T2 T3 T4
In the above illustration, the area under the power curve equals the energy
consumed.
Typically, the utility sets tariff schedules so the cost of energy is higher during high
demand or high energy consumption times. How these “tariff energy containers”
are configured determines how fast these containers fill, which correlates to
increasing energy costs. The price per kWh is lowest at tariff T1 and highest at
tariff T2.
Multi-tariff implementation
The meter supports configuration of up to 8 different tariffs to measure and
monitor energy usage that can be used in billing or cost applications.
There are different tariff modes you can use to determine what tariff is applied and
when: Command mode, Time of Day mode, and Input mode.

Instantaneous measurements
The meter provides highly accurate 1-second measurements.
These measurements include true RMS, per phase and total for:
• 3-phase voltage (line-to-line, line-to-neutral)
• 3-phase current, neutral and ground current
• Active (kW), reactive (kVAR) and apparent (kVA) power
• True PF (power factor)
• Displacement PF
• System frequency
• Voltage (line-to-line, line-to-neutral) and current unbalance
The voltage and current inputs are continuously monitored at a sampling rate of
128 points per cycle. This amount of resolution helps enable the meter to provide
reliable measurements and calculated electrical values for various commercial,
buildings and industrial applications.
Residual current
Available in specific meter models. Refer to Features differentiation matrix
for PM5500 / PM5600 / PM5700 series, page 20 for the availability.
Residual current is an unintended flow of current to ground typically resulting from
an issue with electrical insulation within a load or connecting wiring.
Residual current may be measured as:
• The sum total of all currents flowing through the phase (and neutral)
conductors
• The current flowing through the Protective Earth (PE) conductor in TT and TN
earthing systems
The RCM meter models can be used to continuously measure residual currents in
an electrical system. The RCM meter models are equipped with two input
channels (I5 and I6) that require specific toroid current sensors. Each RCM
channel is capable of dual alarm configuration allowing a warning alert level and a
higher level over alarm. The residual current measurements are processed once
per second.

Synchronized demand
You can configure the demand calculations to be synchronized using an external
pulse input, a command sent over communications, or the device’s internal real-
time clock.
Type Description
Input synchronized This method allows you to synchronize the demand interval of your meter
demand with an external digital pulse source (such as another meter’s digital
output) connected to your meter's digital input. This helps synchronize
your meter to the same time interval as the other meter for each demand
calculation.
Command This method allows you to synchronize the demand intervals of multiple
synchronized demand meters on a communications network. For example, if a programmable
logic controller (PLC) input is monitoring a pulse at the end of a demand
interval on a utility revenue meter, you can program the PLC to issue a
command to multiple meters whenever the utility meter starts a new
demand interval. Each time the command is issued, the demand readings
of each meter are calculated for the same interval.
Clock synchronized This method allows you to synchronize the demand interval to the meter’s
demand internal real-time clock. This helps you synchronize the demand to a
particular time, typically on the hour (for example, at 12:00 am). If you
select another time of day when the demand intervals are to be
synchronized, the time must be specified in minutes from midnight. For
example, to synchronize at 8:00 am, select 480 minutes.
NOTE: For these demand types, you can choose block or rolling block
options. If you select a rolling block demand option, you need to specify a
subinterval.
Thermal demand
Thermal demand calculates the demand based on a thermal response, which
imitates the function of thermal demand meters.
The demand calculation updates at the end of each interval. You can set the
demand interval from 1 to 60 minutes (in 1-minute increments).

Current demand
The meter calculates current demand using the block interval, synchronized or

You can set the demand interval from 1 to 60 minutes in 1 minute increments (for
example, 15 minutes).
Predicted demand
The meter calculates predicted demand for the end of the present interval for kW,
kVAR, and kVA demand, taking into account the energy consumption so far within
the present (partial) interval and the present rate of consumption.
Predicated demand is updated according to the update rate of your meter.
The following illustration shows how a change in load can affect predicted demand
for the interval. In this example, the interval is set to 15 minutes.
Peak demand
The meter records the peak (or maximum) values for kWD, kVARD, and kVAD
power (or peak demand).
The peak for each value is the highest average reading since the meter was last
reset. These values are maintained in the meter’s non-volatile memory.
The meter also stores the date and time when the peak demand occurred. In
addition to the peak demand, the meter also stores the coinciding average 3-
phase power factor. The average 3-phase power factor is defined as “demand kW/
demand kVA” for the peak demand interval.

Power quality measurements
The meter provides complete harmonic distortion metering, recording and real-
time reporting, up to the 63rd harmonic for all voltage and current inputs.
The following power quality measurements are available:
• Individual harmonics (odd harmonics up to 63rd)
• Total harmonic distortion (THD, thd) for current and voltage (line-to-line, line-
to neutral)
• Total demand distortion (TDD)
• K-factor, Crest factor
• Neutral current metering and ground current calculation
The following harmonics data is available on the display:
• Numeric magnitude and angle of the fundamental (first) harmonic.
• Graphical display of the 3rd to 31st harmonics, expressed as a percentage of
the fundamental harmonic.
Harmonics overview
Harmonics are integer multiples of the fundamental frequency of the power
system.
Harmonics information is valuable for power quality analysis, determining properly
rated transformers, maintenance and troubleshooting. Evaluation of harmonics is
required for compliance to system power quality standards such as EN50160 and
meter power quality standards such as IEC 61000-4-30.
Harmonics measurements include per-phase magnitudes and angles (relative to
the fundamental frequency of the phase A voltage) for the fundamental and higher
order harmonics relative to the fundamental frequency. The meter’s power system
setting defines which phases are present and determines how line-to-line or line-
to-neutral voltage harmonics and current harmonics are calculated.
Harmonics are used to identify whether the supplied system power meets required
power quality standards, or if non-linear loads are affecting your power system.
Power system harmonics can cause current flow on the neutral conductor, and
damage to equipment such as increased heating in electric motors. Power
conditioners or harmonic filters can be used to minimize unwanted harmonics.

PowerLogic™ PM5500 / PM5600 / PM5700 series Power quality
K-factor
K-factor relates the heating effect of a distorted current in a transformer to a
sinusoidal current with the same RMS magnitude — it describes a transformer’s
ability to serve non-linear loads without exceeding rated temperature rise limits.
The K-factor is equal to the sum of the squares of the harmonic currents multiplied
by the squares of the harmonic order. The meter uses the following equation to
calculate K-factor:
h

∑ (Ih x h )
n=1
K=
h 2
∑ Ih
n=1
Where K is the K-factor, h is the harmonic order and Ih is the true RMS current of
harmonic order h.
THD% calculations
THD% is a quick measure of the total distortion present in a waveform and is the
ratio of harmonic content (HC) to the fundamental harmonic (H1).
By default, the meter uses the following equation to calculate THD%:

Power quality PowerLogic™ PM5500 / PM5600 / PM5700 series
thd calculations
thd is an alternate method for calculating total harmonic distortion that uses the
RMS value for the total harmonic content rather than the fundamental content.
The meter uses the following equation to calculate thd:
HC
thd = x 100
(H1)2 + (HC)2
TDD calculations
TDD (total demand distortion) evaluates the harmonic currents between an end
user and a power source.
The harmonic values are based on a point of common coupling (PCC), which is a
common point where each user receives power from the power source.
The meter uses the following equation to calculate TDD:

Waveform capture
Overview of waveform capture
Applicable only in PM5650 / PM5760 / PM5761 meter models.
Your meter is able to record voltage and current waveform information.
Waveform capture information is used to help identify power system disturbances,
which are an increasing concern for industrial plants, hospitals, data centers and
other facilities where the equipment is sensitive to voltage sags and swells.
In addition to measuring and recording numerical values for voltage and current,
your meter can also capture the sinusoidal waveform data. The current and
voltage waveform capture data provides additional information for analysis of the
system’s power quality event.
You can manually trigger waveform capture or configure them to trigger
automatically when there is a power quality event. For waveform capture to trigger
automatically, you must enter your system’s nominal (normal) voltage values, and
then the amount of deviation from the nominal required to trigger waveform
capture.

COMTRADE
COMTRADE stands for COMmon format for TRAnsient Data Exchange defined
by IEC 60255-24, and defines a common format for power quality event
(disturbance) data in order to simplify retrieval, analysis and exchange of
disturbance data between multiple sources and vendors.
COMTRADE is configured as part of the default waveform framework.
COMTRADE records are generated for waveform records triggered by power
quality events or manually.
COMTRADE files can be accessed from the meter’s internal FTP server or
through Modbus TCP (not available on serial), and is composed of two files:
By default:
• The meter is configured to generate COMTRADE records for any sag/swell
event.
• The oldest COMTRADE record is overwritten by the newest record when the
COMTRADE limit of 10 files is exceeded.
NOTE: COMTRADE files can only be downloaded using an Ethernet
connection. They cannot be downloaded using serial, modem or Ethernet
gateway connections.

The length of the lines in the phasor diagram represent the relative magnitude of
the voltages with respect to the other phase voltages, and the currents with
respect to the other phase currents. All angles are measured with respect to the
Va/V1 phase. The Va/V1 phasor is fixed to the right-hand horizontal axis (positive
x-axis). Positive angles are measured counterclockwise.
Numeric values are provided for the magnitude and relative angle for each voltage
and current phase.
Phasor information can be used to troubleshoot incorrect connections on the
meter’s voltage and current inputs (for example, switched phase wiring or polarity
errors), if you know how the phasors should be oriented for your power system.

Verifying accuracy
Overview of meter accuracy
All meters are tested and verified at the factory in accordance with International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) standards.
Your digital power meter typically does not require re-calibration. However, in
some installations a final accuracy verification of the meters is required, especially
if the meters will be used for revenue or billing applications.
For a list of accuracy standards that your meter complies to, contact your local
Schneider Electric representative or download the meter brochure from
www.se.com.
DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
Verify the device’s power source meets the specifications for your device’s
power supply.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
Control equipment
Control equipment is required for counting and timing the pulse outputs from an
energy pulsing LED or digital output.
• Most standard test benches have an arm equipped with optical sensors to
detect LED pulses (the photodiode circuitry converts detected light into a
voltage signal).
• The reference device or energy standard typically has digital inputs that can
detect and count pulses coming from an external source (i.e., the meter’s
digital output).
NOTE: The optical sensors on the test bench can be disrupted by strong
sources of ambient light (such as camera flashes, florescent tubes, sunlight
reflections, floodlights, etc.). This can cause test errors. Use a hood, if
necessary, to block out ambient light.
HRB1684301-12 207
PowerLogic™ PM5500 / PM5600 / PM5700 series Verifying accuracy
Environment
The meter should be tested at the same temperature as the testing equipment.
The ideal temperature is about 23 ºC (73 ºF).
A warm-up time of 30 minutes is recommended before beginning energy accuracy
verification testing. At the factory, the meters are warmed up to their typical
operating temperature before calibration to help ensure that the meters will reach
their optimal accuracy at operating temperature.
Most high precision electronic equipment requires a warm up time before it
reaches its specified performance levels.
Energy pulsing
You can configure the meter’s alarm /energy LED or the digital output(s) for
energy pulsing.
• The meter is equipped with an alarm / energy pulsing LED. When configured
for energy pulsing, the LED emits pulses that are then used to determine the
accuracy of the meter’s energy measurements.
• The meter sends the pulses from the configured digital output(s) port, which
are then used to determine the accuracy of the meter’s energy
measurements by pulse counter.

The pulse rate depends on the voltage, current and PF of the input signal source,
the number of phases, and the VT and CT ratios.
If Ptot is the instantaneous power (in kW) and K is the pulse constant (in pulses
per kWh), then the pulse period is:
3600 1
Pulse period (in seconds) = =
K x Ptot Pulse frequency (Hz)
VT and CT considerations
Total power (Ptot) is derived from the values of the voltage and current inputs at
the secondary side, and takes into account the VT and CT ratios.
The test points are always taken at the secondary side, regardless of whether VTs
or CTs are used.
If VTs and CTs are used, you must include their primary and secondary ratings in
the equation. For example, in a balanced 3-phase Wye system with VTs and CTs:
HRB1684301-12 211

VTs CTs 1000 W
where Ptot = total power, VTp = VT primary, VTs = VT secondary, CTp = CT
primary, CTs = CT secondary and PF = power factor.
Example calculations
This example calculation shows how to calculate power, pulse constants and
maximum pulse frequency, and how to determine a pulse constant that reduces
the maximum pulse frequency.
A balanced 3-phase Wye system uses 480:120 volt VTs and 100:5 amp CTs. The
signals at the secondary side are 119 volts line-to-neutral and 4.99 amps, with a
power factor of 0.85. The desired pulse output frequency is 20 Hz (20 pulses per
second).
