Power Measurement Ltd. (Victoria, BC, Canada) announced that its ION 7300 Series multi-function electricity and power quality meters have been approved by Britain’s Office of Gas and Electricity Markets (OFGEM). The OFGEM approval confirms the suitability of the ION 7300™, ION 7330™ and ION 7350™ meters for energy metering applications across the UK, and within European countries that recognize IEC 60687 accuracy. The OFGEM certification will allow the ION® meters to be used in managed-building applications for power-sensitive businesses.
David Sawyer of C-Matic Systems, UK agents for Power Measurement, stated, "Many of our customers installed ION meters to ensure a reliable supply of power to mission-critical buildings in the UK, but increasingly, these facilities are being built, owned and operated by independent leasing firms. With the OFGEM certification, leasing firms can now use the ION 7300 Series meters to allocate and invoice energy consumption and guarantee high reliability for power-sensitive tenants."
