13.1 Phase Reversal and Phase Imbalance
The set limit alerts the user of an unbalanced or a reversed phase in a Three-phase
System. The EPM 5300P has two options for this purpose. The standard set-up is clockwise
ABC rotation. Counterclockwise CBA rotation can be selected in GROUP 03.1, Switch C UP.
PHASE REVERSAL: Activates when a reversed phase enters the EPM 5300P’s metering
system.
PERCENT PHASE IMBALANCE: Activates when the user's preset value percent phase
imbalance is exceeded. For example: an unbalanced Three-phase System.
Note: The EPM 5200P does not have this capability.
