ELECTRICAL ENERGY
MONITORING
Symmetron
Electronic Applications
Measure in order to be able to manage.
• By continuously monitoring the consumption of individual electrical
loads (air conditioners, kitchen, elevators, etc) and the usage of hot
water, you can extract useful conclusions and gain economic and other
benefits (such as the 'green' label).
• Obtain information, graphs and statistics that can not be extracted from
the total electricity or oil bill and get the complete picture of the energy
consumption of your business.
• You can either buy the measuring equipment for permanent installation
so that you manage your consumptions yourself, or you can receive the
results of the data analysis by Symmetron, as a service, with weekly or
monthly fee.
Benefits
• Detect unexpected and unnecessary
consumptions.
• Avoid the expensive power peaks.
• Control your automated functions.
• Correct the power factor in the individual loads.
• Detect your energy intensive processes and
transfer them to reduced tariff hours.
• Produce consumption statistics per hout, per
day, per month or per year.

Statistics: Energy per day of the month, total and
per line
Besides the total energy per day of the month, the individual consumptions are also available. View which consumption
is the most energy intensive or if a load consumes more than expected
Statistics: Energy per hour of the day, total and per
line
•
Monitor the total and individual consumptions per hour of the day. Which hours do you consume more? ανά ώρα
της ημέρας. Ποιες ώρες καταναλώνετε περισσότερο; Distribute your consumptions better
Statistics: Power factor per day of the month, total
and per line
•
Correct the power factor of your problematic consumptions.
Excel: Data graph.
Energy per day, total and per line
View the total energy per day and per load. Here, the “remaining” consumptions are almost permanent and the most
intensive average load . Which permanent consumptions of yours are not insignificant, as you expected?

Consumption per day, total and per line
Transients graph
1. Total, 2. Elevators, 3. Air-conditioning
Monitor the alteration of your consumptions’ power per second. For example, it is apparent that the air-conditioning
units and the pumps are operating in large groups, according to the needs. Instead of them operating, e.g. in 2 groups
of 3, (3 or 6 are operating), they could be added one by one and 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 or 6 units can operate.
Transients graph
Air-conditioning power, total and per phase
Check the symmetry of a 3-phase load, such as the air-conditioning. As before, it is apparent that the air-conditioning
units and the pumps are operating in large groups, according to the needs. Instead of them operating, e.g. in 2 groups
of 3, (3 or 6 are operating), they could be added one by one and 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 or 6 units can operate.

Statistics: Average maximum power per hour of the
day, total and of one individual load
The maximum power charge is as follows: Each quarter, the maximum total power is measured and their average is
calculated within the hour. This average maximum power is charged and has to be reduced. Detect which loads cause
it the most
System Architecture
System Architecture

The basic system Symmetron offers includes a data logger with an optional telemetry module, multimeters,
if they are required, and one current transformer per phase, all installed in a central electric panel of a
professional building. The main power supply and the individual load lines will be monitored.
However, the system can be expanded and adjusted to your needs:

•
You may monitor multiple 3-phase and 1-phase loads. You may wish to monitor individually more 1-phase,
“small” in theory, consumptions, such as lighting, which are not as small as you expected.
You may also monitor more individual loads, either as a further analysis of loads you are already monitoring
(such as air-conditioning in: unit 1, unit 2, pumps, etc), or as smaller loads, such as lighting, pumps, etc.
Moreover, measure additional loads in multiple sub-panels, if they are, for example, in different floors.
You may also monitor various environmental parameters, such as external temperature, humidity or solar
radiation, which may affect the consumption. For example, all 3 of these parameters can affect the
performance and consumption of an air-conditioning unit.
The data logger records the measurements in its internal memory and in a removable 2GB MicroSD
memory card, with long-term data logging capacity.
The data retrieval directly from the data logger can be done as follows:
–
–
–
Locally, via a serial cable
Via LAN/ internet, via a built-in Ethernet module.
Via GSM/ GPRS, via a built-in modem.
