SIMATIC powerrate comprises the following components:
Blocks for acquiring and conditioning energy data
Faceplates for displaying and editing energy data
Blocks for implementing load management (calculating the trend, monitoring the limit, releasing/inhibiting loads), batch-related consumption recording and for integrating measuring instruments and switches
Additional blocks – for example, for time synchronization, data backup, data exchange with archives
Faceplates for displaying results and entering values (e.g. for configuration, or manually measured values)
Excel-based reports for allocating energy data to cost centers, for batch-related evaluation and for determining and displaying the load duration curve
