0 Introduction At present, according to the statistics of the relevant state departments, the average annual power consumption per square meter of construction area of ​​office buildings and large public buildings of the state organs is 85.4 degrees (annual average 85.4kWh / m2), accounting for about 22 %, The power consumption per square meter is 10 to 20 times that of ordinary residents, and 1.5 to 2 times that of similar buildings in developed countries such as Europe and Japan.
On the one hand, China's large public buildings use huge amounts of electricity. On the other hand, we also lack direct data to provide reference for making energy-saving energy-saving decisions. To this end, the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Construction formulated and issued Su Jianke [2007] No. 217 "Regulations on Energy Measurement Design for Public Buildings in Jiangsu Province" to strengthen the energy-saving operation management of public buildings and decompose the work objectives and tasks of energy-saving and emission reduction in stages Implement, establish an energy-saving supervision system and a long-term energy use inspection and assessment mechanism, and improve energy use measurement design.
New construction, reconstruction and expansion of public building projects with a unit of more than 20,000 m2 should implement the relevant national and provincial standards and regulations when reviewing the design and construction drawings.
The energy metering device in the building should use products with remote transmission function, which is convenient for setting up the management system and networking with the BA system.
Electricity plays an increasingly important role in daily production and life, accounting for most of the energy consumption. Therefore, the implementation of energy metering management in large-scale public buildings can promptly find and correct waste of electricity consumption and provide data for energy-saving assessment of buildings.

1 Selection of power meters in building energy conservation metering Large-scale public building energy metering should use power meters as internal management meters. Power meters are installed on the basis of users installing toll meters, considering the need for internal energy metering and energy-saving management. Statistics and management of electrical energy in buildings. Therefore, users can choose to purchase independently, but should pay attention to whether the manufacturer has a measurement license for power meters (electric energy part). The electric power meter can complete the collection of electric energy data of each circuit, each floor or each functional area, and complete the electric power monitoring and electric energy metering management of large public buildings through the background electric energy management system.
Power meters are designed for power monitoring and power management needs of power systems, industrial and mining enterprises, public facilities, and intelligent large public buildings. It can measure all commonly used power parameters with high precision, such as three-phase voltage, three-phase current, active power, reactive power, frequency, power factor, four-quadrant energy, etc., and uses high visibility LCD to display the instrument measurement parameters And the operating information of the power grid system. There are many functions and models of power meters, the prices are also different, and there are many kinds of energy metering schemes. Therefore, they should be reasonably selected to achieve better cost performance.
According to Su Jianke [2007] No. 217 document, the energy consumption data of large-scale public buildings are classified and measured, and the electrical energy is divided into measurement and management according to power consumption, lighting and socket consumption, air conditioning consumption and special consumption. Therefore, for dormitory, shops, hotel rooms and other places that should be measured to economic accounting units, DDS1352 or DDSF1352 electric meters can be used;
DDS1352 single-phase electric meter, also known as ADL10; single-phase electric energy meter, DIN35mm rail installation, width is 1 module (that is, width is 18mm), maximum single-phase current 30A, accuracy level 1.0. The instrument is small in size and low in price. The disadvantage is that it has no communication function and cannot be networked.
DDSF1352 single-phase electric meter, also known as ADL100, is also installed on DIN35mm guide rail, width is 4 modules, maximum single-phase current is 80A at one time, accuracy is 1.0, with peak, flat and valley energy time-sharing rate measurement Function, with RS485 interface, Modbus communication protocol or DL ​​/ T645 protocol, can be networked. It is mainly used for the measurement of single-phase electrical energy and is commonly used in distribution boxes. The appearance and application of DDS1352 and DDSF1352 single-phase electric meters are shown in Figure 1:

Figure 1 DDS1352 meter appearance, DDSF1352 meter appearance and its application

For electricity facilities, the metering is based on Ming and socket, power, air conditioning, and special electricity. When measuring classrooms, medical wards, and hotel rooms by floor or functional division, DTSF1352 or ACR120EL meters can be used. .
Adopt DTSF1352 three-phase four-wire electric meter (see Figure 2), also known as ADL300, used for three-phase electric energy measurement, with time, peak, flat and valley electric energy time-sharing rate measurement function, DIN35mm guide rail installation, width is 7 modules It can be installed in the lighting box or power box. The maximum three-phase current is 80A at a time. Above 80A can be accessed through the current transformer for a second time. The accuracy is 0.5. With RS485 interface, Modbus communication protocol or DL ​​/ T645 communication protocol , Can be networked [1].
The ADL series rail-mounted energy meters can be easily installed on the rails on the back of the power distribution cabinet (box) without opening the panel. This one-to-one measurement is very clear and convenient for system maintenance of.

ACR120EL multi-function electric meter is adopted, which is embedded installation and can be installed on the door panel of the power box or low-voltage outlet cabinet. The panel size is 80mm × 80mm, the specification is 220 / 380V, 5A, and the current is accessed through the transformer for the second time. 0.5 level, can measure electrical parameters such as current, voltage, power, frequency, power factor, four-quadrant energy, with RS485 interface, Modbus communication protocol.
For some important occasions where the harmonic content needs to be detected, the ACR230ELH multi-function meter can be used. Su Jianke [2007] 217 stipulates that important feeder and feeder circuits, such as elevators, pumps, fans, kitchen equipment, parking equipment, etc., have different functions. The equipment shall be measured separately according to the main line. The front-end equipment of the air-conditioning system is measured according to the main line system, and the end of the air-conditioning and the air-conditioning outlet should be measured according to the floor or partition. When there is an economic accounting unit in the building and a central air conditioner is used, an electric energy meter shall be provided separately at the end of the air conditioner in the area. Therefore, the ACR230ELH multi-function meter is used, which is embedded and installed on the door panel of the power distribution cabinet. The size of the face frame is 96mm × 96mm. In addition to measuring all electrical parameters, it also has the maximum demand, 2-31 order current, voltage harmonic components, Functions such as voltage crest factor, current K factor, telephone form factor, current and voltage unbalance, positive and negative zero sequence component analysis. The appearance of ACR120EL and ACR230ELH multi-function meters and their practical application in low-voltage distribution cabinet are shown in Figure 3.

2 Networking of power meters Power meters can be used as internal management meters alone, replacing a large number of traditional analog meters, and can also be used as a front-end device for power monitoring and energy management systems to achieve remote data collection and control. The RS485 communication interface in line with industry standards makes networking easy and convenient, and is an ideal choice for SCADA system integration.
The shielded twisted pair is used for bus-type connection between the instruments. Figure 4 shows the wiring diagram of the ADL instrument communication cable. By networking the on-site power meters of the power distribution system and reaching the monitoring host via the communication network, the scattered meters are connected as an organic whole.
