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. 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 is the result of targeted efforts by Unipower and our customers to create an advanced,
user-friendly and reliable power quality monitoring system.
In order to simplify the use of your PQ Secure system we have divided the documentation into
separate manuals:

3 COMPONENTS OF THE PQ SECURE SYSTEM
PQ Secure system is a collective name for a permanently installed measuring system for the
continuous monitoring of power quality in the electricity network. It consists of three parts - the
measuring device, communication equipment and a computer for storing the measured data.
A PQ Secure system can have the following configuration:
PQ Secure is a highly advanced and fully automated power quality monitoring and control system-
easy to configure and use. After the system and all its meters are installed, any necessary
configuration changes can be made directly from the office, without the need to go to the installation
sites.

3.1 Measuring device
The measuring device UP-2210 is an advanced, 3-phase power quality and disturbance analyser
designed for permanent installation. There are different models, UP-2210 wall mount and UP-
2210R/P rack/panel mount.
UP-2210 Rack and panel mount
UP-2210 wall mount
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 centre. The meters may be equipped with
RS-232, RS-485, built-in modems and dual 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. The dual Ethernet ports makes it possible
to connect to two completely isolated networks. The dual Ethernet ports makes it possible to connect
to two completely independent networks. Note that for security reasons the ports are isolated and
there is no function that can transfer data between the two networks. Both ports supports TCP/IP and
UDP/IP but cannot be connected to the same network. ETH1 has the top priority and is the only port
supporting NTP and SmartCom. Modbus uses TCP/IP but only allows one connection at a time.
There is no function making it possible to transfer data between the two ports.

3.3 Portable meter Unilyzer 900 / Unilyzer 900c
The meters Unilyzer 9900/900c are portable power quality and disturbance analysers. They can also
be integrated in a PQ Secure system together with permanently installed meters.
Figure 3
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 periodic
reports, limit calculations, alarms, PQ Ports etc.
PQ Secure 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 29 MB to 75 MB per Meter per Month (MM) depending
on configuration. With standard configuration 45 MB/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.
Meter 1 year 5 years Storage volume
1 Meter 0,32 1,6 GB
10 Meters 3,21 16,05 GB
20 Meters 6,42 32,10 GB
50 Meters 16,05 80,25 GB

4 INSTALLING PERMANENT METER UP-2210R/P
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-2210R is designed to be installed in standard 19” rack. UP-2210P is designed to be installed in a
panel.
Figure 5

Figure 6
The picture above shows a few UP-2210R installed in typical a substation (130/10 kV).
The UP-2210R can be used with all standard connection options and can measure both line-to-
neutral and line-to-line voltages.
The picture also shows a sub-station display that is used for real-time monitoring and configuration
of all the units in the sub-station.
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-2210R meter can be mounted on a rack/panel. For mounting dimensions, refer to the
drawing below.
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.
Figure 7
4.3 Connection points
There are several connection points on the UP-2210R/P for connecting to the measured object and
for communication links. The connections are described below:

Figure 8
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. RJ-45 connection for 10/100-BaseT Ethernet communication, which is available as an
option.
D. RJ-45 connection for secondary, independent 10/100-BaseT Ethernet communication, which
is available as an option.
E. Optional extra analogue inputs.
F. 4 isolated voltage inputs + reference (the range is stated on the 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 will shift
the voltage signal 180°, affecting power calculations, unbalance and other parameters.
Connect the voltage channels in accordance with the wiring diagrams later in this manual.
Local installation regulation must always be considered. For stranded cables we recommend
fitting with an adapter.
G. 4 isolated current channels (the range is stated on the 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 power,
unbalance and other parameters will be incorrect. Connect the current channels in accordance
with the wiring diagrams shown later in this manual. Local installation regulation must
always be considered. For stranded cables we recommend fitting with an adapter.
H. Connection for Power Supply. Power supply is user replaceable on site. 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. Protect the feeding cable with a
2A fuse. Local installation regulation must always be considered. For stranded cables we
recommend fitting with an adapter. 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.
I. Ground terminal. Always connect this point to protective earth.

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 3 phase with 4 wire measurement with direct voltage and 3 CT’s
Figure 10
The above wiring diagram is used for 3-phase measurement in low voltage networks. The voltage
channel of the unit is connected directly to the electricity network for measuring line-to-neutral
voltage (230 V) and therefore do not require an instrument transformer (PT). The current channels
are connected to existing instrument transformers, 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 I1+ = L1 CT+
U2 = L2 I1- = L1 CT-
U3 = L3 I2+ = L2 CT+
Ref = N (Neutral) I2- = L2 CT-
