Energy Studies
What is an Energy Study?
A service we provide is Energy Studies, this can also be called Data Logging, Energy Logging or Power Studies.
​
An Energy Study is essentially a report of how an Installation uses Electricity.
​
It provides a lot of detail, some of the information we can get from these are listed below:
​
Voltage
Current
Frequency
Power Consumption
Power Factor
Real Power
Reactive Power
Apparent Power
Harmonic Distortion
Balancing of Phases
​
This information can be vital and very important to some consumers that have very sensitive equipment that could be damaged. It also gives a great insight into how efficient the equipment installed is.
Why get an Energy Study?
​
Some of the reasons these Studies are carried out are:
​
Damage to equipment
Equipment not behaving as intended
Electricity Bills higher than usual
Equipment running hot
Looking at ways to reduce Carbon Footprint
Looking at ways to reduce Electricity Consumption
Looking at installing more equipment that uses a lot of Electricity
​
​
These studies can be carried out on a working system, there is no need to isolate the power for this to be done. On completion you will receive a full report with advice and guidance, whilst also picking up on anything that is out of the ordinary.
