Energy Metering Considerations

Energy metering values (kW_Hrs, kVAR_Hrs, and kVA_Hrs) are provided using
a REAL data type. Values are expressed in a 32-bit floating-point format with a
precision of 7 digits. The table lists the theoretical range of a REAL value.

The energy values accumulate when the average generator line current is no less
than 1% of generator rated current. The limit that can be represented by an
energy tag is expressed by the following formulas:

When the energy tag value reaches (8,388,600 * rated kVA * % of rated load) and
the unit is still providing the same load level or less, the value will not update.

For instance, a 30 MVA machine operating at 10% load will yield an energy tag
limit of :
(8,338,600 * .1 * 30000) = 25,015,800,000 kVAh, or 2.50158 x 10

10

kVAh

When the energy tag value exceeds 8,338,600, rounding of the value begins to
occur.

The energy values are not retentive. When the 1407-CGCM unit powers up or
re-establishes a connection with the controller, the energy presets in the
Unscheduled Write table are written to the energy metering values.
