DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory Mobile Power Meter (MPM) Installation Guide

Abstract

Electric power (EP) is a fundamental resource for modern activities. The ability to measure and understand EP is important to all military and commercial organizations. The US Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) Army Research Laboratory (ARL) has developed EP sensing and analysis hardware and software solutions capable of high-resolution data processing and storage. The Mobile Power Meter (MPM) is a nonintrusive integrated EP technology solution containing sensing, processing, data storage, and communications. MPM units utilize ARL's ARTEMIS processing technology to implement a phasor processing architecture that provides information beyond the standard power quality measurements in commercial-grade, power-quality analysis equipment. This report provides general information on the sensing technology in addition to guidance on installation and configuration. Checklists and examples are provided as appendixes.
