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
Yes, a 3-phase meter can be used for single-phase, but it's generally not recommended due to potential inaccuracy and cost inefficiency
Neither is inherently "better." Single-phase meters suit residential needs, while 3-phase meters are designed for higher power industrial/commercial applications.
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.
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
