I have been given the task of figuring out how much power some pieces of equipment in our plant use. I know I can calculate the power using nameplates and voltages and ..... But I was looking for a piece of equipment that I can hook up to record the data. The only data that I am truely concerned with is Power usage spikes (Max instant KW) and KWH. Basically we want to hook this thing up and forget about it for a few days then go back and read the values. It would also be helpful if this unit had clamp on type probes and was not hardwired.
Does anyone know of a device that can do this.
We are looking at 480V equipment pulling up to 600Amps.
I would hate to have to steal the meter off the side of a building somewhere. LOL
