Hello everyone,
I need to ask some questions regarding the connection between real/reactive energy and
the demand real/reactive power.
For example, I know that the PM3255 meters can calculate "Active power sliding window demand delivered-received".
If you multiply this demand with the time interval for which the demand was calculated, you get active (real) energy signed
(delivered - received).
On the other hand, the PM5300 meters (particularly PM5331) calculate a parameter simply called "Demand Real Power".
I also know that the meter can show 4 types of real energy: delivered, received, signed (delivered - received), absolute
(delivered + received)
My question is this: If you multiply this "Demand Real Power" with the time interval for which the demand was calculated,
what kind of real energy would I get for PM5300? (Delivered, delivered-received, delivered+received)
Thank you for your help.

Hello @Janevski
The PM5300 & PM3255 power demand values are calculated based on the Delivered Energy (into the load) power values and not supported the demand calculation for Received Energy (out of load).

Hello @Janevski,
I have moved your post to the metering forum.
@Ramasamy_N Would you be able to answer the question?
