Caution
Definition of Demand: Demand is the max. power drawn from the power grid within a certain
interval (usually 15 or 30 minutes).
6.4.1 Block interval demand
The device calculates the demand for the interval you have set and displays it. The interval can be a
sliding block or a fixed block. The device outputs a demand alarm when the conditions you have set are
TRUE.
Sliding block
The interval can be set from 1 to 60 (min.) in 1-minute increments (the increment is defined in "power
demand interval 2"). The device calculates the demand during the latest finished interval and displays
the value.
Ex.) Power demand interval: 15 min. Power demand interval 2: 1 min.

Fixed block
