Demand values are continuously calculated for real power (A kW, B kW, C kW, Total kW), reactive power
(A var, B var, C var, Total var), and apparent power (A VA, B VA, C VA, Total VA).

Values and timestamps in the demand registers are reported in primary values. They can be read at the
front-panel display, through BESTCOMSPlus, and through the web page interface.
Peak demand values can be preset by pressing the Edit key and changing the value. Write access to the
Reports functional area is required to preset values at the front panel.
To access demand data through BESTCOMSPlus, use the Metering Explorer to open the Demand tree
branch and select Demand Current (Figure 163), Demand Power (Figure 164), Demand Reactive Power,
