Types of Electrical Meters in Data Centers

There are several different types of meters that can be designed into a data center, ranging from high precision power quality meters to embedded meters (like in a UPS or PDU). Each has different core functions and applications. This course provides guidance on the types of meters that might be incorporated into a data center design, explains why they should be used, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of each. Example data centers are presented to illustrate where the various meters are likely to be deployed.
