Portable cl.S PQA PLA404RGP
Power quality analysers is designed according to the norm IEC 61000-4-30 cl. S ed. 3 for continuous measurement of electrical parameters in LV and MV systems for further power quality investigation. The PLA404RGP is built with a powerful RISC processor that provides sufficient processing capabilities for real-time measurement and calculation of all parameters and values.
Continuous sampling of the voltage and current inputs at 40 kHz, guarantees the highest accuracy. Portable PQA PLA404RGP is the instrument for power quality monitoring according to EN 50160 of the incoming energy supply side as well as on the consumer side in order to find and analyse the root cause of network problems

Function
IEC 61000-4-30 ed.3 cl. S
PQ analyzer PLA404RGP measures according the standard IEC 61000-4-30 ed. 3 class A. Such type of analyzers are used in applications where there is necessary precise measurement for power quality evaluation according norms EN 50160, EN 61000-4-7 and EN 61000-4-15. If two devices of class A measures the same signal of voltage and current, measurement results at the same moment have to be same with defined measurement uncertainity.

Events
Events are unexpected signal changes with duration from 10 ms up to days. In some instalations these events can cause material damages and economical losts. Norm EN 50160 defines limits of events and its quantity that can appear in electrical grid during a year. PQA PLA404RGP evaluates following type of events:
- DIP
- INT
- SWELL
- RVC
- I_MAX
Transients
Voltage transients are short commutation, impulse or oscillatory events in electrical grid. Their source can be inductive load switching, power factor correction instruments, atmospheric events, protection instruments action or malfunction of switching elements in the grid.
PLA404RGP analyser detects two types of transients. Absolute transients and differential transients.
- Absolute transients are detected according to override of defined voltage level. The trigger for detection of the absolute transients is defined by absolute threshold (percentage of Udin).
- Differential transients are detected according to the difference between two consecutive voltage measurements. The difference between measurement is defined by differential threshold (percentage of Udin).
Software
MQTT
integration of this protocol into PLA404RGP allows implementation of instrument into any SW. Measured data are divided into several topics in which user can chose which one want to receive. Measured data are transfered in file format JSON.
