Diagrams

Power Quality Performance Indicator diagram is organized into 3 levels and a setup page:

  1. Landing page
  2. Details pages
  3. Information pages

1. Landing page

This page shows a high-level power quality summary. The landing page first opens to the LAST 7 DAYS viewing period. The other time periods are LAST 24 HOURS, LAST 30 DAYS, and LAST 12 MONTHS.

The indicators on the page are color-coded based on the state of the specific power quality item. The color classifications are defined by configurable limits, set for each item. The color coding indicates how well your system performed, with regards to power quality, over a certain period of time:

  • Green means there are no power quality issues.
  • Yellow means there are a few power quality issues, which might be investigated.
  • Red means there are frequent power quality issues, which should be investigated.
