A New Solution A new solution consists of the usage in one power meter only, possessing both protection and alarms functions as well as data logging. Efficiency data is with high accuracy as a result of: A single SATEC power meter is able to simultaneously measure electrical data (voltages, currents and power PE) and mechanical data (pressure, flow and motor speed). All the data is recorded in the same data log of the power meter. All data is recorded in non-volatile memory of the power meter itself. In addition to the data logging ability,
