The PM5320 offers Class 0.5S accuracy for active energy according to IEC 62053-22 and performs sampling at 64 samples per cycle. It can measure voltage, current, frequency, power factor, active and reactive power, energy, and other electrical parameters, making it especially suitable for main and sub-distribution boards, tertiary buildings, industrial facilities, data centers, and energy management systems.

Electrical measurement with Class 0.5S accuracy

The Schneider Electric METSEPM5320 is designed to provide accurate measurement of the main parameters of an electrical network. Its active energy accuracy reaches Class 0.5S, helping identify consumption, allocate energy costs, and detect opportunities to improve efficiency.

Monitored parameters include:

• Voltage.
• Current.
• Frequency.
• Power factor.
• Active power.
• Reactive power.
• Apparent power.
• Active and reactive energy.
• Minimum and maximum values.
• Harmonics up to the 31st order.

The meter uses a sampling rate of 64 samples per cycle, providing detailed information to monitor both consumption and certain power quality indicators.

Harmonic analysis up to the 31st order

One of the standout features of the PowerLogic PM5320 is its ability to perform harmonic analysis up to the 31st harmonic. This function makes it easier to monitor power quality and helps detect distortions that may be associated with non-linear loads, drives, electronic power supplies, LED lighting, and other equipment found in modern installations.

Harmonic analysis complements conventional energy measurement functions and makes the PM5320 a useful tool for both consumption tracking and network diagnostics.

Ethernet communication for remote monitoring

The METSEPM5320 reference includes an RJ45 Ethernet port and Modbus TCP/IP communication at 10/100 Mbit/s, making it easy to integrate the meter into energy management, monitoring, and automation systems.

Compatible hardware and firmware versions can also use BACnet/IP over Ethernet, allowing the meter to be integrated into certain building management systems.

Ethernet communication enables remote access to electrical parameters and centralized data from multiple devices within compatible SCADA, BMS, or energy management platforms.

256 kB internal memory

The PM5320 integrates 256 kB of memory to record operating information and facilitate historical analysis of the installation.

Available logging functions include:

• Data logs.
• Event logs.
• Alarm logs.
• Maintenance logs.
• Instantaneous minimum and maximum values.
• Event time stamping.

This capability provides historical information to analyze consumption trends, investigate incidents, or check installation behavior over specific periods.

35 configurable alarms

The meter features 35 configurable alarms, allowing different electrical conditions to be monitored and alerts to be set when certain parameters reach defined limits.

Alarms help detect abnormal conditions and allow the meter to be used as a monitoring element within broader electrical management systems.

2 digital inputs and 2 digital outputs

The Schneider Electric PM5320 incorporates 2 digital inputs and 2 digital outputs. The inputs allow external signals to be integrated into the monitoring system, while the outputs can be used for signaling or control functions compatible with the electrical characteristics specified by the manufacturer.

This connectivity makes it possible to integrate additional installation information and expand energy monitoring and automation capabilities.

Multi-tariff measurement

The meter supports up to 4 tariffs, a particularly useful feature in installations where energy consumption needs to be differentiated by time periods or tariff conditions.

This feature makes it easier to analyze energy costs and provides a more detailed view of when electrical consumption occurs.

Compatible with different network configurations

The PowerLogic PM5320 can be used in different electrical configurations:

• Single-phase + neutral (1P+N).
• Three-phase (3P).
• Three-phase + neutral (3P+N).

The current inputs are designed to work with standard current transformers with a 1 A or 5 A secondary. Unlike the PM5320R version, the METSEPM5320 reference uses conventional X/1 A or X/5 A current transformers.

Voltage measurement ranges

The device supports a wide measurement voltage range:

• Phase-to-neutral: 20-400 V AC.
• Phase-to-phase: 35-690 V AC.
• Measurement frequency range: 45-65 Hz.
• Nominal input current: 1 A or 5 A.

The auxiliary power supply supports 100-415 V AC at 45-65 Hz or 125-250 V DC, providing flexibility for integration into different electrical panels.

Backlit LCD display

The PowerLogic PM5320 features a 128 x 128-pixel backlit graphical LCD display that allows local viewing of electrical parameters and navigation through the device’s different functions.

Its 96 x 96 mm front panel follows the standard format for panel-mounted analyzers and meters, making replacement or installation in distribution boards easier.

Panel flush mounting

The meter is designed for flush mounting on the front of the electrical panel. Its compact format provides extensive measurement capability without taking up excessive space inside the enclosure.
