Introduction
Electro Industries’ Nexus® 1450 meter is a powerful energy meter that
provides accurate electrical energy measurements and offers advanced
capabilities for power quality analysis and determining electrical power
reliability. The meter is a transducer base with a separate display. The
transducer base retrofits to existing Electro Industries’ Nexus® 1250 and
1252 meters. The Nexus® 1450 meter is ideal for existing switchboard
panels, since it can be installed without cutting panel doors. The separate
display mounts into existing analog meter knockouts.
The Nexus® 1450 meter is protected with a multi-level Cyber Secure
configuration with 10 highly secure encrypted user IDs and passwords
that help prevent tampering and hacking of your power system data. The
meter's built in WebView™ Energy Dashboard allows you to analyze
metering data without needing software. You can navigate easily through
multiple webpage views and get detailed information on energy usage and
power quality: view real time data, analyze stored history logs, view alarms
and waveform records.

Multi-Gain™ Sensing Provides
Superior Accuracy
The Nexus® 1450 meter utilizes EIG’s latest measurement-sensing
technology - Multi-Gain™. Multi-Gain™ technology uses two
sensors on the current inputs - a high gain sensor and a lower gain
sensor. Each sensor simultaneously measures the current signal coming
from the external current transformers. The meter’s intelligent processing
looks at the signal level and determines the optimal sensing circuit for the
highest accuracy measurement. With this technique, the meter has 0.06%
accuracy throughout an extended measurement range, which is a defining
trait of Nexus® Series meters.
The meter’s standard pickup range starts as low as 1 mA, and high
accuracy is attained at 25 mA. Multi-Gain™ metrology allows the same
meter to be used on both 5 A secondary and 1 A secondary CTs. The
meter should maintain high accuracy measurement throughout its
installed life. Refer to the accuracy chart on the next page, for details.

With 6 simultaneously operating communication ports, the meter is a
communication hub to multiple software systems. The Nexus® 1450
meter has 4 serial ports that speak Modbus and DNP 3.0 protocols. It also
has two independent Ethernet ports, consisting of a 10/100BaseT copper
RJ45 connector and an ST Terminated 100Base FX Fiber Optic Ethernet
port. Each Ethernet port has a unique IP address. Through the meter's 6
ports, a user is able to communicate to multiple computer-based
systems, providing data to entities throughout an enterprise.
The meter also excels at measuring power quality, including waveform
recording and IEC 61000-4-7, IEC 61000-4-15, and IEC 61000-4-30
Class A compliance. The Nexus® 1450 meter lets you look at the
reliability of the electrical power circuit to determine causes of faults,
voltage surges and sags, and harmonics.

Multi-Gain™ Metrology allows the Nexus® 1450 meter to have
highly repeatable and stable measurements throughout range

Power Quality Measurements
Critical sensitive equipment and over utilized distribution systems need to
be monitored for proactive system reliability improvements. By measuring
power quality indices such as voltage anomalies, harmonics, flicker,
imbalances and many other conditions, you are able to quantify your
system reliability. Recording waveform events on sags and swells,
including peak and duration of the event, with microsecond resolution,
will facilitate forensic engineering analysis of harmful events in your
power system. The Nexus® 1450 meter is designed to the highest
standards for power quality, including IEC 61000-4-7, IEC 61000-4-15
and IEC 61000-4-30 Class A.
