Chapter 1 Introduction
The PowerLogic™ PM5500 series power and energy meters offer value for the
demanding needs of your energy monitoring and cost management applications. All
meters in the PM5500 series range comply to Class 0.2S accuracy standards and
feature high quality, reliability and affordability in a compact and easy to install format.
Some of the many features supported by the meter include:
• A fourth current input for direct and accurate measurement of neutral current, to
help avoid device overload and network outage.
• Two digital outputs for control and energy pulsing applications.
• Four digital inputs with input metering support for WAGES monitoring applications.
• Dual Ethernet switched ports allow fast Ethernet interconnection to other PM5500
series meters using only one IP switch.
• Multiple tariff support (8 tariffs) for monitoring energy usage on different days and
times.
• Extensive alarming options, including logic and custom alarms.
• THD and individual harmonics up to the 63rd order.
• Onboard webpages for displaying real-time and logged data using a web browser.
• Onboard data logging support for up to 14 selectable parameters.
• Multiple language support: The back-lit anti-glare display screen can be switched to
display meter information in one of the supported languages (available on models
with a display screen).
• Graphical display of harmonics and phasor diagrams (available on models with a
display screen).
You can use the meter can as a stand-alone device, but its extensive capabilities are
fully realized when used as part of an energy management system.
For applications, feature details and the most current and complete specifications of the
PM5500 series meters, see the PM5000 series technical datasheet at www.schneider-
