Measurement and accuracy of the METSEPM8210

Network frequency: 60 Hz; 50 Hz. Analogue input types: Voltage (impedance 5 MOhm); Current (impedance 0.3 mOhm). Communication protocols: Modbus RTU 115 kbauds – 2-wire; ION 115 kbauds – 2-wire; DNP3; IEC 61850; Modbus TCP/IP; Ethernet Modbus TCP/IP daisy chain 10/100 Mbit/s. Display: Colour TFT LCD. Resolution: 320 x 240 pixels QVGA.

Accuracy is 0.1 percent for current and voltage and class 0.2S for active energy (IEC 62053-22), and the meter samples 256 times per cycle. Measurement covers 57 to 400 V AC phase-to-neutral and 100 to 690 V AC phase-to-phase, in 1 A, 5 A or 10 A current ranges, for three-phase networks with or without neutral.

Compliance reports against EN 50160 and IEEE 519 are listed among the power quality functions, with harmonics, waveform and data logs. The meter has three digital inputs and one pulse output on board, and a 20 to 60 V DC supply.

Communication and cyber security of the METSEPM8210

Ethernet and RS485 are the communication ports, with protocols such as Modbus, ION, DNP3 and IEC 61850 listed. Web services, FTP, NTP time synchronisation and SMTP e-mail are supported, along with IPv6.

The datasheet also lists cybersecurity features such as password protection, port hardening, syslog support and the ability to enable or disable services. The sibling METSEPM89M2600 I/O module adds six digital inputs and two relay outputs to the PM8000 series.

Selection checklist for the METSEPM8210

  • Application: billing, power quality or both.
  • Measuring range: voltage and CT ratio to match the network.
  • Supply: 20 to 60 V DC as stated, with a suitable supply.
  • Network protocol: Modbus, DNP3, IEC 61850 or ION.
  • Memory and logging needs.
  • Expansion I/O: add a PM89M2600 if more I/O is needed.

Installation and commissioning of the METSEPM8210

Connect the voltage and current inputs with attention to polarity and phase order, and short-circuit CTs before disconnecting them. Enter CT and VT ratios correctly, as errors multiply every reading.

Configure the network settings, time synchronisation and logs, and compare the readings with a reference clamp meter. Save the configuration for later restoration.

Typical applications of the METSEPM8210 in Oman and the GCC

In Oman and the GCC, high-end meters are used at power plant switchgear, large industrial incomers, data centres and desalination plants where power quality is a contractual or operational matter. Panel temperature should be kept in the datasheet range.

About brand

Schneider Electric is the French group for energy management and industrial automation: low and medium voltage switchgear and circuit breakers, motor control, drives, PLCs, power monitoring, UPS systems and building management. Its history goes back to 1836, when the brothers Adolphe and Eugène Schneider took over the iron and steel works at Le Creusot in Burgundy. Over the 20th century the company left steel and heavy engineering and became an electrical group through acquisitions such as Merlin Gerin, Télémécanique, Square D and Modicon. Its head office is in Rueil-Malmaison near Paris, and its shares are listed on Euronext Paris.

Milestones

  • 1836: The Schneider brothers acquire the Le Creusot works; the business grows in steel, locomotives and heavy engineering.
  • 1975: First investment in Merlin Gerin, a French maker of electrical distribution equipment.
  • 1988–1992: Télémécanique, Square D (USA) and Merlin Gerin join the group, making it an electrical specialist.
  • 1997: Modicon, the company behind the first programmable logic controller, joins the group.
  • 1999: The group takes the name Schneider Electric.
  • 2007 and 2014: APC (UPS and data centre power) and Invensys (process automation) are acquired.

Choosing Schneider Electric breakers and motor control

Circuit breakers are chosen by current and breaking capacity. Acti9 miniature circuit breakers (iC60, C120) protect final circuits up to 125 A. ComPacT NSX molded case breakers cover about 16 to 630 A, and the letter after the frame size sets the breaking capacity: B, F, N, H, S, L from lowest to highest. MasterPacT air circuit breakers are used as main incomers on large switchboards. For motors, a TeSys contactor with an LRD overload relay or a GV2 motor circuit breaker suits direct starting, an Altistart soft starter reduces starting current, and an Altivar drive controls speed. The breaking capacity must always be at least the prospective short-circuit current at the point of installation.

Where Schneider Electric products are used

In Oman and the GCC, Schneider Electric equipment is found in main and sub-main switchboards of commercial and residential buildings, motor control centres in water, oil and gas and industrial plants, substations protected by Sepam and Easergy relays, data centres powered by Galaxy and APC UPS systems, and buildings controlled by EcoStruxure Building Operation.

APC by Schneider Electric: UPS and critical power

Since 2007, APC has been part of Schneider Electric and is now its product brand for uninterruptible power supplies, replacement batteries, battery packs, network management cards and rack power distribution. Our APC catalogue covers Smart-UPS line-interactive and on-line models, Easy UPS On-Line, the modular Symmetra LX, RM and PX ranges, Silcon three-phase systems and their spare part kits, and the RBC cartridges that keep them running. Schneider Electric breakers, drives and PLCs can be quoted together with APC UPS systems in one request.

Ordering Schneider Electric products: what we need

Send the commercial reference from the label (for example LC1D18M7 or ATV320U22N4C). For breakers, confirm the rated current, number of poles, breaking capacity and trip unit. For contactors, give the coil voltage. For drives, give the motor power and supply voltage. APC products are listed on their own brand page.
