What Is the Demand Profile Graph?
The Demand Profile Graph is a graphic view of the meter’s energy usage (or demand) over a specific time interval.
E-Mon Energy™ will plot the graph, which is based on downloaded interval data, for up to eight meters with any
combination of groups and locations. E-Mon Energy can display demand intervals of 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes,
depending on the setup of the device parameters. The software plots the rise and fall of the load as Kilo Watts in
relation to date and time. The Demand Profile Graph window is interactive, allowing the user to customize different
views. The graph views include:
• Default View – Displays the load as KW based on time and date from highest to lowest point.
• Chopper View –Displays the load as KW based on a vertical bar that is color-coded to indicate load
levels. The very top of the bar provides the intensity of the color for the load range. The vertical axis
(y-axis) lists the day number. The “from” day is at the bottom of the bar, going up to the “to” day at the
top of the bar. Each day slice of the bar has a horizontal axis (x-axis) that lists the hour of the day.
Midnight is shown at the left of the bar, covering the 24-hour day as it goes across to the right.
