Manual Introduction ibaPQU-S is a modular system to measure power quality parameters using ibaPQU-S as central unit. ibaPQU-S measures raw values such as current and voltage in sync with the grid and calculates the characteristic values according to IEC 61000-4-30 Ed. 3 Class A. Charac- teristic values include: ...
4 analog inputs are supported for the ibaPQU-S func- tion, voltage or current measurement configurable) All other I/O modules of the iba modular system are equally supported; however the signals are transmitted as raw values only. The raw signals and internally calculated characteristic values are sent to the ibaPDA data acquisition system via a bidirectional fiber optic connection for visualization and recording.
The scope of delivery comprises: ibaPQU-S unit Cover caps for FO cables, USB and Ethernet 16-pin connector with spring terminals (digital input channels) 2-pin connector with spring terminals (voltage supply) DVD (iba Software & Manuals) Issue 1.3...
Manual ibaPQU-S Safety instructions Proper use The device is an electrical apparatus. It is only allowed to use the device for the following applications: measurement data acquisition of voltage and current signals in energy grids applications with ibaPDA The device must only be used as described in chapter 11.

Malfunction, internal device applications not running Hardware error Important note When the LED L4 indicates an error, please contact the iba Support. LEDs L5…L8 7.2.2 The LEDs L5 through L8 show status and progress when installing an update, see chap- ter 9 “Updates”.
S2 is not used (should be zero). Important note Unlike other iba devices that support the 32Mbit Flex protocol, it is allowed to operate only two ibaPQU-S systems in cascade configuration at one free 32Mbit Flex link of an ibaFOB card because of the high sampling rate of 10 - 40 kHz and the high data volume in the network channel of the Flex protocol.
Communication interfaces 7.4.1 FO cable connections X10 and X11 The FO cables transmit the process data between the device and the connected iba systems. The 32Mbit Flex transfer protocol also allows configuration data to be trans- ferred via FO cable.
Manual ibaPQU-S 7.5.2 Debounce filter There are four debounce filters for each digital input. They can be chosen and configured independently of each other for each signal. The following filters are available: “Off” (no filter) “Stretch rising edge” ...
Page 21
Manual “Stretch both edges” With the first edge, the output signal (ochre) follows the original signal (blue) and keeps the logical level for the duration of the set debounce time. Subsequently, the channel is transparent again and waits for the next (rising or falling) edge. Debounce filter: “Stretch both edges”...
Manual ibaPQU-S Voltage supply 7.6.1 Voltage supply X14 The external voltage supply is connected with a 2-pin connector. Caution! Only connect the device to an external voltage supply 24 V DC (±10 % unregulated)! Observe the correct polarity! 7.6.2 Backup voltage X30 The X30 terminal (bottom side of the unit) can be used to connect a backup voltage.
Manual Measurement principles and measured quantities To determine the power quality parameters, ibaPQU-S measures raw values such as currents and voltages in synch with the grid. The characteristic values relevant for power quality are calculated internally. Grid types The device is suitable for 1-phase grids, 3-phase grids without neutral conductor and 3-phase grids with neutral conductor (N) or protective earth (PE).
Manual ibaPQU-S Signals and calculated characteristic values The following table shows the required measured quantities depending on the grid type. Based on the measurements, all characteristic values are calculated which are needed to assess the power quality. Measured quantities 1-phase 3-phase without N/PE 3-phase with N/PE U12, U23, U31...

Manual 8.5.2 Signal filtering To calculate the characteristic values, DIN EN 61000-4-7 dictates an anti-aliasing filter to suppress high-frequency interference that would corrupt the calculation of the har- monic components. A digital anti-aliasing filter with a cut-off frequency of approx. 3 kHz is implemented.

The input modules and their configuration is described in the module manuals. 9. In the “PQU-S” basic module, you set the power frequency of your grid and specify a reference signal. One of the connected phases by which sampling is synchronized is used as the reference signal.
Page 34
Manual ibaPQU-S The signals Un and In are optional input signals that do not have to be assigned. The option “Show line-to-line” allows the voltages U12, U23 and U31 to be provided also in a star system. If the signals are not assigned, ibaPQU-S calculates these values. If the signals are measured, the raw values serve as the basis for the other calculations.

Manual 13.2 Connection examples The examples mentioned here refer to a grid with 230 V and 50 Hz. Furthermore, the consumers to be measured are directly connected to the ibaPQU-S system. If the values voltage and current to be measured are higher, appropriate instrument transformers need to be used.
Manual ibaPQU-S 13.2.3 Delta connection Figure 72: Delta connection direct connection 13.2.4 Connection with instrument transformers It is important that the instrument transformers are Open Loop transformers. This means that a sinus signal on the primary side also needs to exist on the secondary side. The instrument transformers also need to offer a broadband frequency transmission in order to capture harmonics or interharmonics up to the 50th harmonic.
