    2. PRESENTATION OF THE INSTRUMENT 2.1. DESCRIPTION PEL: Power & Energy Logger (power and energy logger) The PEL106 is a DC, single-phase, two-phase, and three-phase (wye and D) power and energy logger in a rugged sealed housing. The PEL has all power/energy recording functions needed for most of the world's 50Hz, 60Hz, 400Hz, and DC distribution net- works, with many connection possibilities to suit different installations.
