Capacity Management Module Design

The Capacity Management Module provides generator, Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), and general equipment monitoring and reporting. It also includes transformer and UPS loss monitoring and reporting. The losses are reported in terms of energy and cost.

Components

The following applications and features are part of this module:

Reports:

• Branch Circuit Power Report
• Equipment Capacity Report
• Generator Capacity Report
• Generator Power Report
• Power Losses Report
• UPS Power Report

Tools:

• Generator Performance Configuration Tool
• Generator Power Configuration Utility
• UPS Power Configuration Utility
• Power Losses Configuration Utility

Diagrams:

• Equipment Vista Diagrams

Prerequisites

• The measurement data for the reports must be available as historical data logs in the database before running the report.
• This module requires a separate license. See Licensing for more information.

Report	Needs
Branch Circuit Power Report	A hierarchy must be configured using the data center hierarchy template. Branch circuit level measurements for current and power must exist. A meter on the main incomer is needed for coincident demand measurements. (See Supported measurements and devices for more information.)
Equipment Capacity Report Generator Capacity Report	The generators and equipment must be configured in the Generator Performance Configuration Tool before running the reports. (See Supported Measurements and Devices for more information.)
Generator Power Report	The generators must be configured in the Generator Power Configuration Utility before running the report. (See Supported Measurements and Devices for more information.)
Power Losses Report	The transformers and UPS must be monitored on both the primary and secondary side (in and out) for the loss calculations. The transformers and UPS must be configured in the Power Losses Configuration Utility before running the report. (See Supported Measurements and Devices for more information.)
UPS Power Report	The UPS must be configured in the UPS Power Configuration Utility before running the report. (See Supported Measurements and Devices for more information.)

Design Considerations

• Some of the reports only work with certain device types.
