What Is A Utility Monitoring System?
A Utility Monitoring System consists of meters, sensors, data acquisition systems (remote computers), a communication system to link the meters and sensors to the data acquisition systems, a computer network, or other means of data transmission, and a workstation or file server with EnerTel™ software. These components are integrated into a system which collects, records, displays and analyzes detailed information about building or industrial process energy consumption. The system records the major energy flows (electricity, natural gas, thermal energy) at the building or end-use level at a predetermined frequency.
