Introduction
An increasing number of non-linear loads, such as computers, office equipment and frequency
converters are currently being connected to the public electricity distribution network. Electrical
equipment of this type affects the power quality in the network in a negative way and is frequently
more sensitive to disturbances than older equipment. For these reasons, it has never been more
important to measure and monitor power quality in the electricity distribution network, in order to
detect disturbances before serious and costly faults occur.
PQ Secure system is the result of targeted efforts by Unipower and our customers to create an
advanced, user-friendly and reliable power quality monitoring system.
PQ Secure system consists of three main components; the meter, communication equipment and a
specially designed analysis and evaluation program, PQ Secure. The PQ Secure system uses a
standard database to store all measured data. This means that advanced analyses have become
possible, opening up completely new evaluation opportunities.
In order to simplify the use of your PQ Secure system we have divided the documentation into three
separate manuals:
UP-2210 Hardware installation and configuration manual
describes the installation procedures for the meter and the system’s software
UP-2210 Technical manual
describes how the meters and the system works from a technical viewpoint and which
parameters are stored
PQ Secure SQL User and software installation manual
describes the configuration and use of the system’s software

3.1 Measuring device
The measuring device UP-2210 is an advanced, 3-phase power quality and disturbance analyzer
designed for permanent installation.
3.2 Communication
All measured data is automatically transferred from the meter to the server. There are several options
for communication between the meters and the computer center. The meters may be equipped with
RS-232, RS-485, built-in modems and Ethernet ports. This means that communication is possible
using a range of media, such as a standard telephone lines, signal cables, GSM phones, local
computer networks, etc. Different meters can use different communication options within the same
system, creating a highly flexible communication solution.
3.3 Portable meter Unilyzer 900 / Unilyzer 900c / Unilyzer 902
The meters Unilyzer 902/900/900c are portable power quality and disturbance analyzers. They can

3.4 Software
The PQ Secure system consists mainly of four programs performing different functions. The system
is built around a Microsoft SQL server, which stores all information about the system as well as the
measure data. The client computers and communication computers later use this information when
they contact the measuring devices and when they perform analyses.
PQ Secure Main program of the system. Used to present measure data from the
SQL database, and to configure the system.
PQ Online Used to present real-time values from the meters, and to configure the
meters.
PQ Schedule Manages communication with the meters and transfers their measure
data to the SQL database.
PQSM PQ Secure System Manager. Server software, which handles a
periodic reports, limit calculations, alarms, PQ Ports etc.
PQS DB Wizard Only used when the PQ Secure database is being installed and updated.
UniLauncher Software/service used to automatically connect to meters.
Microsoft SQL Server is also needed for the operation of the system, this software is purchased
separately.

3.4.1 Server performance
The required server performance depends on which PQ Secure application is being used. Unipower
or our representatives can help you with choosing the right computer/server solution.
Data growth in the database is approximate 0,35 to 0,9 GB per Meter per Month (MM) depending on
configuration. With standard configuration 0,54 GB/MM is a good average. This includes all data,
both statistical and events.
When dimensioning a server for a system, use this figure to estimate hard disk requirements. Assume
a server lifetime 4-5 years.

4INSTALLING PERMANENT METER UP-2210
The installation process involves fitting the measuring device in an existing equipment cabinet or
similar meter at the selected installation site. This includes the connection to existing instrument
transformers and the chosen communication equipment. The connection to the instrument
transformers must only be made by qualified electrical installers or equivalent personnel to prevent
injury during installation. We recommend making the connections to the measure core and only in
exceptional cases directly to the relay cores.
4.1 Location and fitting
UP-2210 is designed to be installed in an equipment cabinet, so as it is strong and durable. However,
you should still think carefully about the environment, which should be clean and dry and have a
normal ambient temperature. The communication with the unit can also influence where the unit is
installed.
The figure above shows a UP-2210 installed in typical a Swedish substation (130/10 kV), where the
voltage and current inputs are connected via existing terminal boxes, which in turn are connected to
existing instrument transformers.
The UP-2210 can be used with all standard connection options, and can measure both line-to-neutral
and line-to-line voltages.
Note: If the meters are used with external/internal modem, keep in mind that phone lines are
easily affected by lightning. Modems usually don’t have lightning protection. Unipower
recommends that external lightning protection is installed between the phone line and
modem in exposed locations, in order to protect the meter from damages caused by
lightning.

4.2 Installation diagram
The UP-2210 meter can be mounted on the door or on the wall of the equipment cabinet. For
mounting dimensions, refer to the drawing below. When mounting the meter, leave enough room at
the side to prevent the contacts from getting jammed.
It is important to install the meter as close as possible to the measured object. When installing the
unit, also bear in mind the type of communication facility you will be using, for example close to the
window for a GSM modem, near a telephone outlet for an external modem, etc.

4.3 Connection points
There are a number of connection points on the UP-2210 for connecting to the measured object and
for communication links. The connections are described below:
A. Digital outputs. Optional. The digital outputs are relays, which can be used for alarms and
for controlling other equipment. The meter can also be programmed to activate the digital
outputs under certain conditions, for example when a transient of a certain level is recorded.
The digital outputs are configured using the PQ Online program.
Digital inputs. Optional. The digital inputs are galvanically isolated with a common for each
group of 16 inputs. The digital inputs are used for a range of applications, providing
completely new monitoring opportunities. The UP-2210 can for example be used as a fault
meter. You have the option of capturing various types of power quality events, for example
switch connections, relay status, etc. The digital inputs can also be used for monitoring other

events, for example when the door of a particular station is opened or closed, the temperature,
status, etc. The digital inputs are easily configured using the PQ Online program.
S0 interface. 1 opto isolated S0 output for energy pulses.
B. Time/TTL IRIG-B interface. Optional.
Temperature inputs. 2 Pt-100 sensor inputs. Optional.
RS-485 interface. Optional.
C. External display interface. A connection for graphical display unit, which can be supplied
as an option.
D. RS-232 interface, connection for communication for example with External modem.
E. RJ-45 connection for 10/100-BaseT Ethernet communication, which is available as an
option.
F. USB port. For on-site communication.
G. Connection for Power Supply. 85 –264 V AC, 45-65 Hz / 100-365 V Dc, 10 VA. Power
supply is user replaceable. If a suitable DC voltage source is available this is a preferred
choice. If there is no station/internal battery backup, Unipower recommends that you connect
the instrument to an external UPS type battery source in order to prevent power failure
disturbances. The cable connected to the power supply unit of the UP-2210 unit must be 0,25
–2,5 mm2(23 –12 AWG) and fitted with a 2A fuse. Local installation regulation must
always be considered. For stranded cables we recommend fitting with a connector. If an AC
supply is used, the phase is connected to L input and the neutral conductor is connected to the
negative input, N on the UP-2210 meter. Always ensure that the UP-2210 unit is grounded
(earthed), using the input marked with the ground symbol.
H. UP-2210 meter has 4 differential current channels (the range is stated on the front label).
The current channels are designed for direct connection to the existing current transformer
(CT) secondary side. It is important to connect the current channels with the correct polarity;
otherwise the power charts displayed by the meter will be incorrect. Connect the current
channels in accordance with the wiring diagrams shown later in this manual. The current
inputs should be connected with 0,5 –16 mm2(20 - 6 AWG) cable. Local installation
regulation must always be considered. For stranded cables we recommend fitting with a
connector.

I. UP-2210 meter has 3 isolated voltage inputs + reference (the range is stated on the front
label). The voltage inputs are designed for the direct measurement of line-to-neutral voltages
in low voltage networks as well as for connection to potential transformers (PT) secondary
circuit in high voltage networks. Remember to connect the polarities correctly, because
incorrect polarity on the voltages channels will shift the voltage signal through 180°,
affecting the power calculations. Connect the voltage channels in accordance with the wiring
diagrams later in this manual. The voltage inputs should be connected with 0,25 –2,5 mm2
(23 - 12 AWG) cable. Local installation regulation must always be considered. For stranded
cables we recommend fitting with a connector.
Note: When connecting to CT or PT existing ones are preferably used. For new installations
we recommend same type/class as being used in metering circuits.

4.4 Connection alternatives
In the electric grid there are multiple configurations of instrument transformers (PT= Potential
Transformer, CT= Current Transformer). The UP-2210 meters support all standard 1-phase and 3-
phase connections. The meter is configured using PQ Online, where all the common connections
methods with their respective wiring diagrams available and a graphical explanation. Here it is also
possible to set the transformer ratios as constants.
4.4.1 1-phase measurement with direct voltage and one CT (Line-to-neutral voltage)
Figure 10
The above wiring diagram is used for single-phase measurement in low voltage networks. The
voltage channel of the unit is connected directly to the public distribution networks for measuring
line-to-neutral voltage (230 V) and therefore do not require an instrument transformer (PT).
However, the current channel is connected to existing instrument transformer, allowing the
measurement of high currents, e.g. directly from the secondary side of a power transformer. Always
protect the voltage inputs with a suitable fuse in each conductor (red conductor). The connection for
this type of measurement is as follows:
Channel: Measured object: Channel: Measured object:
U1 = L1 I1+ = L1 CT+
Ref = (Neutral) I1-= L1 CT-

4.4.2 1-phase measurement with one PT and one CT
Figure 11
The above wiring diagram is used for single-phase measurement in public distribution networks with
one CT and one PT. The voltage channel of the unit is connected to PT for measuring line-to-neutral
voltage. The current channel is connected to existing instrument transformer, allowing the
measurement of high currents, e.g. directly from the secondary side of a power transformer. Always
protect the voltage inputs with a suitable fuse in each conductor. The connection for this type of
measurement is as follows:
Channel: Measured object: Channel: Measured object:
U1 = L1 PT+ I1+ = L1 CT+
Ref = L1 PT-(Grounded) I1-= L1 CT-

UNIPOWER
UP-2210 Hardware installation and configuration manual

4.4.3 HV 3-phase measurement with 2 CT’s and 2 PT’s (Line-to-line voltages)
The above wiring diagram is used for three-phase measurement in public distribution networks with
2 CT´s and 2 PT’s. The voltage channels of the unit are connected to PT’s for measuring line-to-line.
The current channels are connected to CT´s. Two channels are measured while the third current and
voltage values are calculated from the measured channels. Always protect the voltage inputs with a
suitable fuse in each conductor on the secondary side of the PT. The connection for this type of
measurement is as follows:
Channel: Measured object: Channel: Measured object:
U1 = L1-L2 PT+ I1+ = L1 CT+
U2 = L2-L3 PT- I1-= L1 CT-
Ref = L1-L2 PT-, L2-L3 PT+ I3+ = L3 CT+
I3-= L3 CT-
Note: If this method is used, the meter will automatically calculate the third line-to-line
voltage (UL3 - L1) and the current I2. This configuration is normally used in medium
voltage networks.
Note: In this configuration the constants for U1-U3 must be the same. Also the constants for
I1-I3 must be the same. This is because the missing U2/I2 is calculated by the
instrument.
