Measurements
Incremental energy helps provide information for analyzing energy and power usage against
present or future utility rates, and is useful for measuring energy consumption by shift or for a
specific process.
When configuring incremental energy, shorter incremental energy periods provide more granular
data which can make the data easier to use for comparison purposes.
Example: Incremental energy
• Start time: 8AM or 08:00
• End time: 12AM or 24:00
• Interval: 420 minutes (7 hours)
A
First interval (08:00 to 15:00)
B
Second interval (15:00 to 22:00)
C
Third interval (22:00 to 24:00)
The first incremental energy interval is from 8AM (start time) to 3PM, and is 7 hours long. The
second incremental energy interval is from 3PM to 10PM, and is also 7 hours long. The third
interval is from 10PM to 12AM, and is only 2 hours long because 12AM is the specified end time.
These intervals repeat every 24 hours until the configuration is changed or incremental energy
feature is disabled.
Configuring incremental energy using ION Setup
You can configure incremental energy using ION Setup.
1. Start ION Setup.
2. Open the Setup Assistant for your meter.
3. Click Energy Applications > Incremental Energy.
