Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for accurately measuring delivered or supplied electrical energy over an extended range of values. In one embodiment, a meter for monitoring the energy at a remote site includes a current sensor for measuring the current supplied to or from the site, and a microprocessor that generates output readings with an enhanced accuracy over a wide range of outputs in response to digital samples received from the sensor. In a one implementation, the meter is configured to provide readings with an accuracy that satisfies the standards IEC 60687 1A 0.5S, IEC 60687 5A 0.5S, ANSI C12.20 Class 20 0.5, and ANSI C12.20 Class 2/10 0.5. In another implementation, the meter is configured to provide readings with an accuracy that satisfies the standards IEC 60687 1A 0.2S, IEC 60687 5A 0.2S, ANSI C12.20 Class 20 0.2, and ANSI C12.20 Class 2/10 0.2.
