Instructions for Use
3.2.
Measuring the values in a medium-voltage system
The ComPass B permanently senses the voltage, current and frequency values and performs cal-
culated measurements of P, Q, S and cos φ in medium-voltage distribution networks. It also calcu-
lates the mean values (Ø15 min) and the maximum values (24 h/7 days/365 days, slave pointer).
All values can be read locally on the OLED display or transmitted by remote signals via the RS485/
MODBUS interface.
