Energy & Lighting Solutions > 3 Phase Energy Meter

Introduction :

Shresta's solutions for power metering have helped fuel the utility industry's migration to solid state metering, while simultaneously driving down costs and improving anti-tampering capabilities. Our Solution offer the highest level of integration and flexibility in the industry and are ideal for developing low cost, intelligent utility meters for residential and industrial applications.

Shresta's advanced poly phase meter solution leverages the Single Converter Technology and above capabilities along with a 21-bit 2nd order delta-sigma ADC and 6 analog inputs. Poly-phase monitoring enables the collection of a much richer set of information, beyond just how much electricity is used. In addition to enabling an assessment of power efficiency, which is important for industrial applications, poly-phase also provides improved security to detect tampering and/or power theft. Anti-tamper and time-of-use billings are both key features that are derived from an integrated 'real time clock' which enhances value while simultaneously saving on BOM costs. Anti-tampering capabilities are becoming especially important in developing countries, such as China and India, where power usage and power theft are both growing rapidly.
