Series PM174 Powermeters
The meter’s TOU calendar allows you to configure any tariff
schedule based on any possible utility regulation. The
calendar itself has 32 entries that allow you to specify profiles
for working days and holidays through all seasons in any order
that is convenient for you, based on simple intuitive rules.
There are no limitations on how to define your schedule. The
meter is able to automatically recognize your settings and to
select a proper daily tariff schedule for any day within a year.
The above picture gives you an example of a single-season
tariff schedule configured for weekends and the designated
U.S.A. holidays.
To configure your season tariff schedule:
1. In the “Season” box, select the season,
and in the “Day Type” box, select a day
type for this calendar entry.
2. Select the time interval when this daily
tariff schedule is effective, based on
the start and the end weekdays and,
for a multi-season schedule, on the
start and the end month for the
selected season. It does not matter
which order of weekdays or months
you select: the meter recognizes the
correct order.
3. For exception days like designated
holidays, select a specific day either by
specifying a day and month, or by
selecting a month, a week and a
weekday within the month.
