About this event

Master advanced electric metering for single and three-phase systems with in-depth modules covering power, energy, and instrumentation.

Overview
Electric power metering has evolved well beyond reading numbers off a dial. As the energy sector leans more on accuracy, efficiency, and automation, the need for robust knowledge in metering systems—especially for single and three-phase configurations—has never been more relevant. This course offers a deep dive into how electricity is measured, monitored, and managed, ensuring every module builds a strong conceptual and technical base.

From the fundamentals of electric power and AC theory to the finer points of instrument transformers and cross wattmeter verification, learners will gain a structured understanding of power metering systems. Whether you're brushing up or building from scratch, this course keeps it sharp, relevant, and well-aligned with the essential modules—without overwhelming anyone with jargon or filler.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Understand the basics of power and energy in metering systems.
  • Identify key components in single and three-phase power setups.
  • Interpret AC power behaviour in various measurement scenarios.
  • Evaluate the function and selection of instrumentation equipment.
  • Explain the purpose and operation of instrument transformers.
  • Analyse verification methods like the cross wattmeter technique.

Frequently asked questions

Can you use a 3 phase meter can for single-phase?

Yes, a 3-phase meter can be used for single-phase, but it's generally not recommended due to potential inaccuracy and cost inefficiency

Which meter is better, 3 phase or single-phase?

Neither is inherently "better." Single-phase meters suit residential needs, while 3-phase meters are designed for higher power industrial/commercial applications.  

Does a 3-phase meter consume more electricity?

No, the meter itself doesn't consume more electricity. It measures the actual consumption of the connected load, regardless of whether it's single or three-phase.

How does a three-phase electricity meter work?

A three-phase meter measures the power consumed across three separate electrical lines. It typically uses multiple current and voltage sensors to calculate the total energy used by the connected three-phase loads
