Abstract
An electrical panel meter system may include a controller and a plurality of meter modules. Each meter module may be configured to monitor, read, and store at the meter module electrical data related to electrical power provided to a respective branch circuit of the electrical panel meter system. The controller may be configured to issue a read command simultaneously to each meter module and to store a timestamp indicative of the issuance of the read command. The controller may also be configured to issue a send command sequentially to each meter module to transmit its stored electrical data reading. The controller may further be configured to append the stored timestamp to each received electrical data reading to create a timestamped electrical data reading suitable for use in power quality analyzes. Methods of timestamping electrical data sampled in an electrical panel meter system are also provided, as are other aspects.
