Some History of Power and Energy
• Steinmetz originally developed the methods
of power and energy calculation (1897).
• Changes in electrical loads require new
measurement methods and calculation to
accurately reflect system behaviour.
• DIN40110-2 Quantities used in alternating
current theory - Part 2: Multi-line circuits.
• IEEE1459-2010 - Definitions for the

Unbalanced Conditions.
• The DIN and IEEE standard have some small
differences but both standards provide
consistent results.
• The Fluke 430-II includes both classical and
modern (unified) algorithms for power and
energy measurement.

Inverter efficiency for solar installations

Recipe for solar installation ROI


1. Solar cells and solar battery storage

2. Inverters convert that dc current to ac
(useful power)
3. For optimum performance,
inverter settings need to match solar
cell output, which changes over time

A solar installation that isn’t
configured correctly won’t run

Traditional method
Evaluating Mechanical Output Power

• Measurement of mechanical power


usually requires a torque sensing system
which requires a sensor, conditioning
electronics and acquisition hardware.
• Installing the torque sensors in to existing
motors is difficult and time consuming.
• The complexity and cost of these systems
is high.
• Systems that also measure electrical
power are even more complex.
• Field testing systems are difficult to
install, understand and costly.

The Fluke 438-II provides a very affordable alternative delivering easy to understand measurement
data on systems that are operating in their typical environment.
Breakthrough Technology

Proving Fluke-438-II Measurement Methods

Using a 355 kW (475 hp) motor, the output


torque from a mechanical sensor was compared
to the Fluke-438-II

While running with stable torque, delta between torque sensor and
Fluke 438-II is < 2%

Electrical Measurements
• Three phase measurements
– Electrical Power
– Unbalance
– Power Factor
– Harmonic Distortion
• Motor Electrical Analysis
– Directly on line motors only
(more than 60% of motors are connected direct
on line)
– Measurement as % of rated nameplate
specification
• Measurement Benefits
– Quickly quantify performance relative to design
specification
– Measure and eliminate poor power quality as
source of motor failure
Mechanical Measurements
• Calculated Mechanical Measurements using
advanced analysis of electrical signals
– Power
– Torque
– Speed
– Efficiency
• Motor Mechanical Analysis
– Directly coupled motors only
– Measurement as % of rated nameplate
specification for quick good or bad indication
• Measurement Benefits
– No load sensor required, save cost and
overcome challenges of accessing shaft
– Quickly ascertain load under operating
condition
Motor Rated Load
• Calculated real time load factor
– Operating conditions, load and power quality
impact the rated performance of motors
– To compensate, the motor power must be de-rated
to mitigate temperature rise and stress to windings
and mechanical components
• Motor Mechanical Analysis
– Directly coupled motors only
– De-rating factor calculated according to National
Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA)
standards, taking the impact of poor power quality
into account.
• Measurement Benefits
– Quickly identify motors operating at or beyond
limits, make system adjustments to prevent
failures
– Size the motor to save operating cost and prevent
downtime
Diagnostic benefits

• The 438-II has two important summary screens that show key electrical and mechanical
parameters in terms of ‘state of health’ to provide a quick insight on the status of the
motors as it operates.
• Measuring torque can give a direct insight into the state of health
of the motor, the load and process.
• Reliable operation over time is ensured while minimizing maintenance costs.
Diagnostic benefits

• Analysis of measured data is much simplified by classifying measurements from good


(green) to bad (red).
• Where the black indicators are plotted indicated where the motor is operating with
optimal or expected performance. The expected performance comparison is in line with
the measurement compared to the motor’s rating plate data.
• Indicators falling inside the red bars may be due to poor power quality (unbalance and
harmonics) or under or overloading of the motor.
Derating motors
When harmonics and unbalance are present the motor is likely
to run hotter than the specification, the purpose of the NEMA derating
is to ensure that the motors continue to run within specifications.

• The derating curve shows the


performance of a motor under test.
• Each of the points shows the
performance as the load changes
and the state of the power quality.
• Points in the green zone are within
acceptable performance limits.
• Operation in the yellow zone is
acceptable for short periods.
• Points in the red zone should be
avoided as operation in the area
may potentially damage the motor
PowerLog 4.0
• PowerLog 4.0 is a revised
version of the software
package that supports a
number of Fluke products.
• The new package support
the new measurements
included in the Fluke 430
series II products.
• There are a number of user
interface improvements,
this is illustrated in the
include statistics mode.
