SYSTEM FOR MONITORING ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN INDUSTRIAL PLANTS AND ENERGY MEANS AND TRANSMISSION MODULE THEREFOR

摘要

The present invention relates to a system (101) for monitoring the energy consumption in at least one power system of an industrial plant or a building with one or more energy measuring and transmission modules and with one or more components from the group comprising automatic circuit breakers, circuit breakers, main switches and contactors, wherein at least one energy measuring and transmission module is arranged on a component, and with at least one readout unit (15) which can be arranged in the power network and having a demodulator, with the data that are transmitted via power line communication in the power network, read out and in one Computer readable format can be provided, as well as with at least one computer (19) and a software executable on the computer, with which a data analysis of the power consumption in the monitored power grid is feasible. Moreover, the invention relates to an energy measuring and transmission module for arrangement in a power line and for measuring the electrical energy conducted through the power line and transmission of determined data to an evaluation unit (19), wherein the energy measuring and transmission module comprises a measuring unit for determining the electrical energy passed through and a transmission unit for transmitting data determined by the measuring unit via the power line connected to the energy measuring and transmission module by means of powerline communication.
