Frequently Asked Questions About Infrared Meter Reading

Frequently Asked Questions About Infrared Meter Reading

1. What do the current ratio and voltage ratio of an infrared meter refer to?
Current ratio × voltage ratio = the meter's transformation ratio. The current ratio typically refers to the transformation ratio of the meter's current transformer, while the voltage ratio is commonly used in high-voltage applications. For a 380V grid-connected system, the voltage transformation ratio is 10,000/100 = 100.

2. Do peak, off-peak, and valley templates take effect on historical data after being bound to infrared meter reading?
Peak, off-peak, and valley templates do not apply to historical meter data after being bound; they take effect the day after being bound to a power station.

3. How can the infrared meter reading peak-off-peak template be activated?
1. Go to Applications > Peak-Off-Peak Templates and create the corresponding template.
2. Bind the corresponding template to the corresponding power station.
Note: The power station must be an industrial or commercial type, and its location must match the region set for the peak-off-peak schedule.
