PM5H-1E1 — ABB PM5H Class A Power Quality Analyser
The ABB PM5H is a Class A power quality analyser and energy meter compliant with IEC 61000-4-30 Edition 3, the highest internationally recognised power quality measurement standard, providing the level of measurement accuracy and performance required for contractual power quality assessments, grid compliance verification, and regulatory monitoring at utility boundary points. Class A compliance means the PM5H measures every power quality parameter — voltage RMS, harmonic voltages to the 63rd order, flicker (Pst, Plt), voltage dips and swells, transient overvoltages, unbalance, frequency variation, and supply interruptions — using the exact algorithms specified in IEC 61000-4-30 with the prescribed measurement intervals and aggregation periods, ensuring that measurement results are unambiguous, repeatable, and legally defensible for contractual disputes between industrial customers and the Saudi Electricity Company (SEC).
Beyond IEC 61000-4-30 compliance, the PM5H provides continuous waveform capture at 10.24 kHz sampling rate triggered by configurable power quality events, storing cycle-by-cycle voltage and current waveforms for post-event analysis. The 32 MB internal data memory stores over 6 months of 10-minute aggregated PQ parameters at Class A resolution, with Ethernet connectivity for real-time remote access and automated data export. The PM5H also functions as a high-accuracy Class 0.5S billing-class energy meter, eliminating the need for a separate energy meter at boundary metering points where PQ monitoring is also required.
In Saudi Arabia's industrial and utility landscape, the PM5H serves three critical functions: at SEC grid supply points of large industrial customers where IEC 61000-4-30 Class A data supports power quality contractual terms; within industrial facilities to diagnose power quality problems causing process trips and equipment damage; and at renewable energy grid connections where ECRA requires continuous PQ monitoring. Vision 2030's National Renewable Energy Program involves grid-connecting several gigawatts of solar and wind capacity, and each grid connection requires a Class A PQ monitor at the point of common coupling per SEC grid connection requirements.
Razz Middle East supplies PM5H meters with full configuration, IEC 61000-4-30 compliance setup, and Ethernet integration to power quality databases. We provide power quality measurement campaigns, EN 50160 voltage quality assessments, and IEEE 519 harmonic compliance studies for Saudi industrial clients.

Key Features & Benefits
- IEC 61000-4-30 Edition 3 Class A compliance provides legally defensible power quality measurement results for contractual PQ assessments between industrial customers and SEC under the ECRA regulatory framework.
- Harmonic analysis to the 63rd order for both voltage and current with per-harmonic magnitude and phase angle satisfies IEEE 519 and IEC 61000-3-12 harmonic compliance assessment requirements for industrial grid connections.
- Continuous 10.24 kHz waveform capture on event trigger stores cycle-by-cycle waveforms for dips, swells, inrush, and transient events, enabling root-cause analysis of process trips and equipment damage incidents.
- Class 0.5S active energy measurement accuracy eliminates the need for a separate billing-grade energy meter at supply boundary points where both PQ monitoring and revenue metering are required.
- 32 MB internal memory stores over 6 months of 10-minute aggregated Class A PQ parameters, providing a continuous compliance record without requiring continuous network connectivity for data export.
- Ethernet connectivity with Modbus TCP and integrated web server provides real-time remote access to PQ data, enabling centralised monitoring across multiple industrial sites or substations from a single platform.
- EN 50160 voltage quality assessment function automatically compares measured parameters against EN 50160 limits, generating automated compliance pass/fail reports aligned with SEC's grid voltage quality specifications.
Industrial Applications in Saudi Arabia
- SEC supply point power quality monitoring at large industrial customers (ARAMCO, SABIC, MARAFIQ) where IEC 61000-4-30 Class A measurement is required for contractual PQ terms and ECRA regulatory compliance reporting.
- Renewable energy grid connection PQ monitoring at commercial solar farms connecting to the SEC grid under the National Renewable Energy Program, where ECRA requires Class A continuous monitoring at the point of common coupling.
- Power quality investigation and root-cause analysis at industrial facilities experiencing unexplained process trips and VFD faults, where PM5H waveform capture identifies the supply disturbance triggering each event.
- IEEE 519 harmonic compliance surveys at industrial facilities with large VFD installations and arc furnaces, where PM5H current harmonic measurement to the 63rd order quantifies total demand distortion for compliance verification.
- Commercial building energy management boundary metering requiring both Class A PQ monitoring and Class 0.5S revenue billing accuracy at the SEC supply metering point.
- ARAMCO cogeneration facility grid connection monitoring, where IEC 61000-4-30 data demonstrates compliance with SEC's grid code PQ emission limits for embedded generation.
- KAUST and KACST research centre grid connection monitoring supporting academic research into power quality characterisation of Saudi Arabia's distribution network.
