This communications option extends submetering capabilities to include BACnet Master-Slave/Token-Passing over RS-485 meter connections.
The BACnet MS/TP communications option for the Class 5000
converts electrical submeter data into an RS-485 serial communications format
compatible with BACnet. The Class 5000 meter, equipped with Option B converts,
up to 38 metering data parameters into the BACnet Master-Slave/Token-Passing
(MS/TP) protocol. These measurements include energy and reactive energy,
delivered and received (kWh); real power (kW), total and by phase; reactive
(kVAR) and apparent (kVA) power, total and by phase; power factor (percent),
total and by phase; and current (A), voltage (V) and phase angle (degrees) by
phase.
