277 V L-N / 480 V L-L. However, the maximum voltage allowed for direct
connection may be lower, depending on the local electrical codes and regulations.
As per installation category III the maximum voltage on the meter voltage
measurement inputs should not exceed 277 V L-N / 480 V L-L.
If your system voltage is greater than the specified direct connect maximum
voltage, you must use VTs (voltage transformers) to step down the voltages.
Balanced system considerations

In situations where you are monitoring a balanced 3-phase load, you may choose
to connect only one or two CTs on the phase(s) you want to measure, and then
configure the meter so it calculates the current on the unconnected current
input(s).
NOTE: For a balanced 4-wire Wye system, the meter’s calculations assume
that there is no current flowing through the neutral conductor.
Balanced 3-phase Wye system with 2 CTs

The current for the unconnected current input is calculated so that the vector sum
for all three phases equal zero.
Balanced 3-phase Wye or Delta system with 1CT

The currents for the unconnected current inputs are calculated so that their
magnitude and phase angle are identical and equally distributed, and the vector
sum for all three phase currents equal zero.
NOTE: You must always use 3 CTs for 3-phase 4-wire center-tapped Delta or
center-tapped open Delta systems.
Serial communications
The meter supports serial communication through the RS-485 port.
In an RS-485 network, there is one master device, typically an Ethernet to RS-485
gateway. It provides the means for RS-485 communications with multiple slave
devices (for example, meters). For applications that require only one dedicated
computer to communicate with the slave devices, an RS-232 to RS-485 converter
can be used as the master device. In master device, recommended response
time-out setting should be minimum 1 second.
RS-485 configuration
Before connecting your device to the RS-485 bus, use the meter’s display, or ION
Setup to configure your meter’s default RS-485 settings.
Your meter has one RS-485 connection.
Your meter must have a unique unit identifier (address) and have the following
settings match the rest of the devices on the RS-485 bus:
• Protocol
• Baud rate
QGH1336803-04 21
• Parity
You can use a communications converter (USB to RS-485 or RS-232 to RS-485)
to connect to your meter.
Serial protocols
Your meter supports the serial communication protocol on its RS-485 port.
• Modbus RTU
RS-485 wiring
Connect the devices on the RS-485 bus in a point-to-point configuration, with the
(+) and (-) terminals from one device connected to the corresponding (+) and (-)
terminals on the next device.
RS-485 cable
Use a shielded 2 wire or 1 twisted pair RS-485 cable to wire the devices. Use
either shielded 2 wire or 1 twisted pair to connect the (+) and (-) terminals.
The total distance for devices connected on an RS-485 bus should not exceed
900 m (2953 ft).
NOTE: You can connect a maximum of 32 devices to a single RS-485 bus.
RS-485 terminals
- Data minus. This transmits/receives the inverting data signals.
+ Data plus. This transmits/receives the non-inverting data signals.
RS-485 network configuration

After you have wired the RS-485 port and powered up the meter, you must
configure the serial communications port in order to communicate with the meter.
Each device on the same RS-485 communications bus must have a unique
address and all connected devices must be set to the same protocol, baud rate,
and parity (data format).
NOTE: To communicate with the meter using ION Setup, you must set the
serial site and all connected devices in the RS-485 network to the same parity
setting.
For meters that do not have a display, you must first wire and configure each one
separately before connecting these meters to the same RS-485 bus.

reliable measurements and calculated electrical values for various commercial,
buildings and industrial applications.
Power and Energy measurements

The meter lets you configure any one power parameter (W, VA, or VAR) at a time.
You can set it using the meter’s display, through communication using ION Setup,
or by any Modbus tool that supports FC16 (command number is 2959).
Energy accumulation in the meter depends on the selected power parameter (W,
VA, or VAR). Integrated energy values and old values also depends on the
selected power parameter.
NOTE:
• On changing the power parameter (either through meter display or
communication), all the stored energy values (old and integrated) are
reset to zero.
• Energy values can also be cleared through communication. Run Hours
are displayed with 6 digit Hours and 2 Digit Minutes.
Energy (EM6433H and EM6436H)

The meter provides uni-directional, 2-quadrant, Class 1 / Class 0.5 accurate
energy metering.
The meter stores accumulated value of any one of the selected energy from
active, reactive, or apparent energy in nonvolatile memory:
• kWh, kVARh, kVAh

Verifying accuracy EasyLogic™ EM64xxH series
Verifying accuracy
Overview of meter accuracy
All meters are tested and verified at the factory in accordance with International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE) standards.
Your 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.
Accuracy test requirements (EM6433H and EM6436H)

The most common method for testing meter accuracy is to apply test voltages and
currents from a stable power source and compare the meter’s readings with
readings from a reference device or energy standard.
Signal and power source

The meter maintains its accuracy during voltage and current signal source
variations but its energy pulsing output needs a stable test signal to help produce
accurate test pulses. The meter’s energy pulsing mechanism needs
approximately 10 seconds to stabilize after every source adjustment.
The meter must be connected to control power in order to conduct accuracy
verification testing. Refer to your meter’s installation documentation for power
supply specifications.
DANGER
Verify the device’s power source meets the specifications for your device’s
power supply.
Control equipment
Control equipment is required for counting and timing the pulse outputs from an
energy pulsing LED.
• 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
pulse 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.
Environment
The meter should be tested at the same temperature as the testing equipment.
The ideal temperature is about 23 ºC (73 ºF). Make sure the meter is warmed up
sufficiently before testing.
QGH1336803-04 49
EasyLogic™ EM64xxH series Verifying accuracy
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 meter standards allow the
manufacturers to specify meter accuracy derating due to ambient temperature
changes and self-heating.
Your meter complies with and meets the requirements of these energy metering
standards.
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.
Reference device or energy standard

To help ensure the accuracy of the test, it is recommended that you use a
reference device or reference energy standard with a specified accuracy that is 6
to 10 times more accurate than the meter under test. Before you start testing, the
reference device or energy standard should be warmed up as recommended by
its manufacturer.
NOTE: Verify the accuracy and precision of all measurement equipment used
in accuracy testing (for example, voltmeters, ammeters, power factor meters).

reference device with a specified accuracy that is 6 to 10 times more accurate
than the meter under test. Before you start testing, the reference device should be
warmed up as recommended by its manufacturer.

52 QGH1336803-04
Required pulses calculation for accuracy verification testing

(EM6433H and EM6436H)
Accuracy verification test equipment typically requires you to specify the number
of pulses for a specific test duration.
The reference test equipment typically requires you to specify the number of
pulses required for a test duration of “t” seconds. Normally, the number of pulses
required is at least 25 pulses, and the test duration is greater than 30 seconds.
Use the following formula to calculate the required number of pulses:
Number of pulses = Ptot x K x t/3600
Where:
• Ptot = total instantaneous power in kilowatts (kW)
• K = the meter’s pulse constant setting, in pulses per kWh
• t = test duration, in seconds (typically greater than 30 seconds)
Total power calculation for accuracy verification testing

(EM6433H and EM6436H)
Accuracy verification testing supplies the same test signal (total power) to both the
energy reference/standard and the meter under test.
Total power is calculated as follows, where:
• Ptot = total instantaneous power in kilowatts (kW)
• VLN = test point line-to-neutral voltage in volts (V)
• I = test point current in amps (A)
• PF = power factor
The result of the calculation is rounded up to the nearest integer.
For a balanced 3–phase Wye system:
Ptot = 3 x VLN x I x PF x 1 kW/1000 W
NOTE: A balanced 3–phase system assumes that the voltage, current and
power factor values are the same for all phases.
For a single-phase system:
Ptot = VLN x I x PF x 1 kW/1000W
Percentage error calculation for accuracy verification testing

EM6433H and EM6436H
Accuracy verification testing requires you to calculate the percentage error
between the meter being tested and the reference/standard.
Calculate the percentage error for every test point using the following formula:
Energy error = (EM - ES) / ES x 100%
Where:
• EM = energy measured by the meter under test
• ES = energy measured by the reference device or energy standard.
NOTE: If accuracy verification reveals inaccuracies in your meter, they may be
caused by typical sources of test errors. If there are no sources of test errors
present, please contact your local Schneider Electric representative.
QGH1336803-04 53
EM6459H
Accuracy verification testing requires you to calculate the percentage error
between the meter being tested and the reference/standard.
Calculate the percentage error for every test point using the following formula:
Percentage error = (MUT - RSS) / RSS x 100
Where:
• MUT= parameter measured by the meter under test
• RSS = Reference Sub Standard (Reference device)
NOTE: If accuracy verification reveals inaccuracies in your meter, they may be
caused by typical sources of test errors. If there are no sources of test errors
present, please contact your local Schneider Electric representative.
Accuracy verification test points (EM6433H and EM6436H)

The meter should be tested at full and light loads and at lagging (inductive) power
factors to help ensure testing over the entire range of the meter.
The test amperage and voltage input rating are labeled on the meter. Refer to the
installation sheet or data sheet for your meter’s nominal current, voltage and
frequency specifications.
Watt-hour test point Sample accuracy verification test point
Full load 100% to 200% of the nominal current, 100% of the nominal voltage and
nominal frequency at unity power factor or one (1).
Light load 10% of the nominal current, 100% of the nominal voltage and nominal
frequency at unity power factor or one (1).
Inductive load (lagging 100% of the nominal current, 100% of the nominal voltage and nominal
power factor) frequency at 0.50 lagging power factor (current lagging voltage by 60°
phase angle).
VAR-hour test point Sample accuracy verification test point
Full load 100% to 200% of the nominal current, 100% of the nominal voltage and
nominal frequency at zero power factor (current lagging voltage by 90°
phase angle).
Light load 10% of the nominal current, 100% of the nominal voltage and nominal
frequency at zero power factor (current lagging voltage by 90° phase
angle).
Inductive load (lagging 100% of the nominal current, 100% of the nominal voltage and nominal
power factor) frequency at 0.87 lagging power factor (current lagging voltage by 30°
phase angle).
Energy pulsing considerations (EM6433H and EM6436H)

The meter’s energy pulsing LED and pulse outputs are capable of energy pulsing
within specific limits.
Description Energy pulsing LED Pulse output
Maximum pulse frequency 35 Hz 20 Hz
Minimum pulse constant 1 pulse per k_h
Maximum pulse constant 9,999,000 pulses per k_h
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.
54 QGH1336803-04
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 (EM6433H and EM6436H)

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:
VTp CTp 1 kW
Ptot = 3 x VLN x xIx x PF x
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 120:5 amp CTs. The
signals at the secondary side are 119 volts line-to-neutral and 5.31 amps, with a
power factor of 0.85. The desired pulse output frequency is 20 Hz (20 pulses per
second).
1. Calculate the typical total output power (Ptot):
Ptot = 3 x 119 x 480 x 5.31 x 120 x 0.85 x 1 kW = 154.71 kW

120 5 1000 W
2. Calculate the pulse constant (K):

3600 x (pulse frequency) = 3600 seconds/hour x 20 pulses/second
K=
Ptot 154.71 kW
K = 465.5 pulses / kWh
3. At full load (120% of nominal current = 6 A) and power factor (PF = 1),
calculate the maximum total output power (Pmax):
Pmax = 3 x 119 x 480 x 6 x 100 x 1 x 1 kW = 205.6 kW

120 5 1000 W
4. Calculate the maximum output pulse frequency at Pmax:
Maximum pulse frequency = K x Pmax = 465.5 pulses / kWh x 205.6 kW

3600 3600 seconds/hour
Maximum pulse frequency = 26.6 pulses/second = 26.6 Hz
QGH1336803-04 55
5. Check the maximum pulse frequency against the limits for the LED and pulse
outputs:
• 26.6 Hz ≤ LED maximum pulse frequency (35 Hz)
• 26.6 Hz > pulse output maximum pulse frequency (20 Hz)
NOTE: The maximum pulse frequency is within the limits for LED energy
pulsing. However, the maximum pulse frequency is greater than the limits
for pulse output energy pulsing. Pulse output frequencies greater than 20
Hz will saturate the pulse output and cause it to stop pulsing. Therefore in
this example, you can only use the LED for energy pulsing.
Adjustments to allow energy pulsing at the pulse outputs

If you want to use the pulse output, you must reduce the output pulse frequency
so it is within the limits.
Using the values from the above example, the maximum pulse constant for the
pulse output is:
3600 x (pulse output maximum pulse frequency) 3600 x 20

Kmax = =
Pmax 205.6
Kmax = 350.14 pulses per kWh
1. Set the pulse constant (K) to a value below Kmax, for example, 300 pulses/
kWh. Calculate the new maximum output pulse frequency at Pmax:
New maximum pulse frequency = K x Pmax = 300 pulses/kWh x 205.6 kW

3600 3600 seconds/hour
New maximum pulse frequency = 17.1 pulses/second = 17.1 Hz
2. Check the new maximum pulse frequency against the limits for the LED and
pulse outputs:
• 17.1 Hz ≤ LED maximum pulse frequency (35 Hz)
• 17.1 Hz ≤ pulse output maximum frequency (20 Hz)
As expected, changing K to a value below Kmax allows you to use the pulse
output for energy pulsing.
3. Set the new pulse constant (K) on your meter.
Typical sources of test errors

If you see excessive errors during accuracy testing, examine your test setup and
test procedures to eliminate typical sources of measurement errors.
Typical sources of accuracy verification testing errors include:
• Loose connections of voltage or current circuits, often caused by worn-out
contacts or terminals. Inspect terminals of test equipment, cables, test
harness and the meter under test.
• Meter ambient temperature is significantly different than 23 °C (73 °F).
• Floating (ungrounded) neutral voltage terminal in any configuration with
unbalanced phase voltages.
• Inadequate meter control power, resulting in the meter resetting during the
test procedure.
• Ambient light interference or sensitivity issues with the optical sensor.
• Unstable power source causing energy pulsing fluctuations.
• Incorrect test setup: not all phases connected to the reference device or the
energy standard. All phases connected to the meter under test should also be
connected to the reference meter/standard.
• Moisture (condensing humidity), debris or pollution present in the meter under
test.

Power and power factor

Power* and power factor
The sampled measurements taken at the meter’s voltage and current inputs
provide data for calculating power and power factor.
In a balanced 3-phase alternating current (AC) power system source, the AC
voltage waveforms on the current-carrying conductors are equal but offset by one-
third of a period (a phase angle shift of 120 degrees between the three voltage
waveforms).
* Only for EM6433H and EM6436H.
Current phase shift from voltage

Electrical current can lag, lead, or be in phase with the AC voltage waveform, and
is typically associated with the type of load — inductive, capacitive or resistive.
For purely resistive loads, the current waveform is in phase with the voltage
waveform. For capacitive loads, current leads voltage. For inductive loads, current
lags voltage.
The following diagrams show how voltage and current waveforms shift based on
load type under ideal (laboratory) conditions.
Current and voltage in phase (resistive) Current leads voltage (capacitive) Current lags voltage (inductive)
Real, reactive and apparent power (PQS)

A typical AC electrical system load has both resistive and reactive (inductive or
capacitive) components.
Real power, also known as active power (P) is consumed by resistive loads.
Reactive power (Q) is either consumed by inductive loads or generated by
capacitive loads.
Apparent power (S) is the capacity of your measured power system to provide real
and reactive power.
The units for power are watts (W or kW) for real power P, vars (VAR or kVAR) for
reactive power Q, and volt-amps (VA or kVA) for apparent power S.

Power factor register format

The meter performs a simple algorithm to the PF value then stores it in the PF
register.
Each power factor value (PF value) occupies one floating point register for power
factor (PF register). The meter and software interpret the PF register for all
reporting or data entry fields according to the following diagram:

EasyLogic™ EM64xxH series Command interface
Command interface
Command interface
The command interface allows you to configure the power meter by sending
specific commands using Modbus protocol. Reference the online Modbus register
list for meter commands, results, and data types.

• A: In the Command register, enter a meter command.

• B: In the Semaphore register, when using the protected command interface,
enter the semaphore you are given (refer “Using the Protected Command
Interface”). The semaphore register cannot be used with unprotected
command interface.
• C: In the Parameters register, enter all parameters for a meter command.
• D: The Status register displays 0 when the power meter receives a
command. Once the command is completed, the status register displays the
same value as the command register.
• E: The Result register indicates if the command was successful, and if not,
what is the error that occurred.
F: The Data register displays the executed parameters of a successful
command and the invalid parameters based on data type of an unsuccessful
command.
There are two command interfaces, protected and unprotected, described in the
following sections.
Using protected command interface

To issue a meter command using the protected command interface, you must
have a command semaphore.
To get a semaphore, read the semaphore Modbus register. The power meter will
return a zero or a nonzero number.
• If the meter shows zero, someone else owns the semaphore. You must wait
for the semaphore to be available before sending a command.
62 QGH1336803-04
Command interface EasyLogic™ EM64xxH series
• If the meter shows a nonzero number, you own the semaphore. Semaphore is
provided once until it is released or has been inactive for approximately 4
minutes. Once you have the semaphore, subsequent reads of the semaphore
register will return zero until you release the semaphore or it times out.
To send a meter command using the protected command interface:
1. Read the semaphore register and record the meter response. This is your
semaphore.
2. Build the packet to be written to the command block.
3. Write the packet as a Modbus block write (enter the command number,
semaphore, and parameters at the same time).

4. Monitor the meter response registers for validity and completion.

5. Write the semaphore back to the semaphore register to release it for another
master to use.
