How to calibrate a Wibeee One?
If you do not have a clamp meter, the calibration will not be accurate.
Devices from the Wibeee One family require calibration upon installation. This is because the installation is not always perfect, with the cables attached to the core of the device, so the electromagnetic field is affected and the Wibeee needs help, thorough calibration, to obtain more accurate values.
It is very important that the calibration be carried out with a current of at least 2.5 amps. This value is the one we have set as a minimum value to help the Wibeee make more accurate measurements. Otherwise, signal noise could affect the readings and reduce accuracy.
During the meter registration process (see the Adding a new meter entry) the calibration process will only appear on Wibeee One devices.
After clicking Continue, we will access the screen where we can check the current value (Amperes) that is passing through the phase at that time after previously having verified it using a clamp meter.
Single-phase system | Three-phase system with neutral | Three-phase system WITHOUT neutral |
|---|---|---|
Only the main phase requires calibration Phase 1 reading | All 3 phases must be calibrated: Phase 1 reading Phase 2 reading Phase 3 reading | All 3 phases must be calibrated: Phase 1 reading Phase 2 reading Phase 3 reading |
At this point when we will enter the value obtained by the clamp meter, in the field indicated as Phase 1 reading. By clicking on that field, we can enter the value.
If the value contains decimals, it must be entered with a full stop (.) as a separator
Once the calibration process is complete, by clicking Continue we can complete the meter registration process as reported on the Adding a new meter page.
