With the intelligent power grids of tomorrow – the Smart Grids – electrical building installations will be fac-
ing new challenges. In order to increase the energy efficiency of buildings and at the same time integrate
the consumers in the load compensation, it is necessary to switch electrical devices in buildings based on
external signals such as time, consumption thresholds or similar. The ABB i-bus
mum prerequisites for intelligent buildings.
By combining energy management with illumination and shutter control, heating, ventilation and surveil-
lance, the use of the ABB i-bus
combined with cost-effectiveness and environmental awareness with minimal planning and installation ef-
fort. Furthermore, the flexible usage of rooms and the continuous adaptation to changing requirements are
simple to realise.
The ABB i-bus
sumption of the connected electrical loads.
The active energy consumption per switching output is determined. Furthermore, the total consumption of
all three outputs is also available. All meter values can be sent cyclically, on request or when a start or
stop event has occurred such as a time, operating period or when a defined consumption threshold is
reached. Furthermore, when a stop event occurs, the assigned output can be switched.
For each output the active power, current and voltage as well as further electrical variables (apparent
power, crest factor, power factor and frequency) can be measured. The measured values are made avail-
able via the ABB i-bus
dershoot of a defined threshold occur, a warning can be sent or the output switched.
The ETS application also enables simple load management (load control), where up to ten Energy Actua-
tors can be interconnected.
Furthermore, the switch actuator functionality of the ABB i-bus
ry output.
The electrical loads connected to the three floating switch outputs can be switched via KNX or manually
with manual actuation directly on the device.
