Thank you for purchasing a Power Energy Logger Model PEL 102 or PEL 103
For best results from your instrument and for your safety, read the enclosed operating instructions carefully and comply
with the precautions for use. These products must be only used by qualified and trained users.
WARNING, risk of DANGER! The operator must refer to
these instructions whenever this danger symbol appears. Ethernet socket (RJ45).
CAUTION! Risk of electric shock. The voltage at the
parts marked with this symbol may be dangerous. Main power supply input.
Equipment is protected by double insulation. Ground/Earth.
USB socket. Useful information or hint to read.
SD Card. Magnetic fields can damage hard drives and
medical devices.
Kensington anti-theft system.
Important instructions to read and to fully understand.
Must not be applied to or removed from bare conductors carrying dangerous voltages.
Type B current sensor as per EN 61010-2-032.
The product has been declared recyclable after analysis of its life cycle in accordance with the ISO14040 standard.
The CE marking guarantees conformity with European directives and with regulations covering EMC.
The trash can with a line through it means that in the European Union, the product must undergo selective disposal for the

Definition of Measurement Categories (CAT)
■CAT IV Measurement category IV corresponds to measurements taken at the source of low-voltage installations.
Example: power feeders, counters and protection devices.
■CAT III Measurement category III corresponds to measurements on building installations.
Example: distribution panel, circuit-breakers, machines or fixed industrial devices.
■CAT II Measurement category II corresponds to measurements taken on circuits directly connected to low-voltage installations.
Example: power supply to domestic electrical appliances and portable tools.
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
This instrument complies with safety standard IEC 61010-2-030, the leads comply with IEC 61010-031 for voltages of 1000V in
measurement category III or 600V in measurement category IV and the current sensors comply with IEC 61010-2-032. Failure to observe
the safety instructions may result in electric shock, fire, explosion, and destruction of the instrument and of the installations.
■The operator and/or the responsible authority must carefully read and clearly understand the various precautions to be taken
in use. Sound knowledge and a keen awareness of electrical hazards are essential when using this instrument.
■For your safety, use only the compatible leads and accessories delivered with the instrument, which comply with IEC
standard 61010-031 (2002). When sensors or accessories having a lower voltage rating and/or category are connected to the
instrument, the lower voltage and/or category applies to the system so constituted.
■Before each use, check that the leads, enclosures, and accessories are in perfect condition. Any lead, sensor or accessory
on which the insulation is damaged (even partially) must be repaired or scrapped.
■Do not use the instrument on networks for which the voltage or category exceeds those mentioned.
■Do not use the instrument if it seems to be damaged, incomplete, or poorly closed.
■Use only the AC power adapter and battery pack supplied by the manufacturer, which include specific safety features.
■When removing and replacing the battery and/or the SD-Card, make sure that the device is disconnected and switched off.
■We recommend using Personal Protection Equipment where required.
■Keep your hands away from unused terminals.
■If the instrument is wet, dry it before connecting it.
■All troubleshooting and metrological checks must be performed by authorized (competent and accredited) personnel, with
the instrument completely disconnected.

Power & Energy Logger Model PEL 102 and PEL 103
2. PRODUCT FEATURES
2.1 Description
PEL: Power and Energy Logger
The PEL 102 and PEL 103 are simple-to-use, single, dual (split-phase) and three phase (Y, ∆) power and energy loggers.
The PEL offers all the necessary functions for Power/Energy data logging for most of the 50Hz, 60Hz, and 400Hz and DC
distribution systems worldwide offering numerous distribution set-ups. The PEL is designed to work in 1000V CAT III and
600V CAT IV environments.
The PEL is compact in size and fits in many distribution panels.
The PEL provides the following measurements (or calculations):
■Direct voltage measurements up to 1000V CAT III and 600V CAT IV
■AC current measurements from 200mA up to 10,000A with MA193 external current sensors
■Power measurements: VA, W and var
■Energy measurements: VAh, Wh (source, load) and varh (4 quadrants)
■Power Factor (PF), Cos ϕ, and Tan Φ
■Crest Factor
■Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) for voltages and currents
■Harmonics from the fundamental signal up to the 50th order for 50/60Hz voltages and currents
■Frequency measurements
■RMS and DC measurements @ 128 samples/cycle – each phase simultaneously
■Bright triple LCD on the Model PEL 103 (3 phases shown simultaneously)
■Storage of measured and calculated values on a SD-Card or SDHC-Card
■Automatic recognition of the different types of current sensors
■Configuration of current and voltage ratios with external sensors
■17 types of supported hook-ups or electrical distribution systems
■USB, LAN, and Bluetooth communication
■DataView® Software for data download, viewing of measurements, real-time communication with a PC and
report generation with predefined or custom templates
