Billing For Electricity Used
Billing For Electricity Used
(OP)
Is it possible to calculate the exact cost for electricity used over the past 18 mths in a comms room. The supply is metered with a Socomec Diris AP type meter, which does not have the option of kWh. The units that can be read off the meter are kW, kVAR, kVA, V, Hz, A and the hours run.
If its is not possible to get an exact cost can this be estimated. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It is remotely possible that an accessory module that will provide a watthour KYZ-pulse output could be obtained. Connect it to a counter and log a month's worth of usage, and vaguely estimate the prior interval. This assumes that the metering devices and associated instrument transformers are suitably accurate for revenue-transfer purposes.
With digitally-displayed information, it is critical not to confuse resolution with accuracy.

I was hoping that I could calculate the kilowatts per day, from which I could then get kWh. The rest of the facility has kWh meters and using the cost per kWh from the suppliers bill the tenant bills are calculated.
