end,
Supply side,
transformer end,
Load side,
transformer end,
Load side, far end
Defines the location of the meter:
far end – near the supply source or near the load,
transformer end – near the power transformer.
Billing Point Location Supply side, far
end,
Supply side,
transformer end,
Load side,
transformer end,
Load side, far end
Defines the location of the billing point:
far end – near the supply source or near the load,
transformer end – near the power transformer.
Number of Metering Elements 2 (Open Delta)

The EM920 uses pre-calculated loss constants for correcting
meter readings. All calculations are performed by Pas using
transformer and power line data, and then the resulting loss
constants are downloaded to the meter. If power line losses
are included in compensation, they are added to the loss
constants.
For more information on the loss calculation techniques, see
the Handbook for Electricity Metering, 10-th edition, by the
Edison Electric Institute.
To configure loss constants in the meter:
1. Specify the locations of the meter and a point of
billing. The losses will be added to, or subtracted from
the measured power depending on the locations of the
