Electrical Submeter
Submeters are electrical devices and associated data
acquisition and communication equipment that measure and track building
energy performance. They are connected downstream from the utility
meter and provide details of energy use for one or more electrical
loads. Such equipment is rated at not more than 1,000 volts AC and 1,500
volts DC.
Section products include submeters used to measure
energy use and production of non-utility operated electrical
co-generation and storage equipment.
Submeters provide building
managers and owners with the information they need to optimize energy
efficiency or allocate electricity bills equitably to building
occupants. Submeters can also identify wasteful consumption and
malfunctioning equipment.
