The European Commission reflected the objectives in Directive 2012\/27\/EU, It establishes the package of measures that each state must ensure to meet the target set.<\/p>\n
For practical purposes, describes strategies for renovating existing buildings, both public and private, promoting the efficient use of energy by end customers, and promoting energy services in companies.<\/p>\n
For carry out this purpose it, the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) and the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC) have published a series standards that set out requirements and provide guidance on how to carry out energy audits. The EN 16247 standard helps companies throughout with the requirements of the European Union’s Efficiency Directive.<\/p>\n
Essentially, this electric code aims to comply with the package of measures that ensure compliance with the climate change and energy targets for 2020 set by the European Commission.<\/p>\n
Which companies are affected by Europe Directive 2012\/27\/EU?<\/h4>\n
Directive 2012\/27\/EU states that energy audits must be performed by large companies with more than 250 employees or with turnover exceeding 50 M \u20ac or balance sheets over 43 M \u20ac. Large corporations are also required to do them. Moreover, non-compliance may generate fines of up to 60,000 \u20ac.<\/p>\n
These companies are required to repeat the energy audit every four years, as defined in Directive 2012\/27\/EU.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\n
This means that in the event of an inspection by personnel from the competent authorities, not having a current audit will result in non-compliance with Directive 2012\/27\/EU and the corresponding government fine.<\/h5>\n
\n
\nWhat solutions exist to comply with Directive 2012\/27\/EU?<\/h4>\nAs we have seen, it is highly recommendable to perform an energy study, even though the legal deadline has expired, in order to comply with current regulations.<\/p>\n There are two ways to perform an energy audit to ensure the requirements imposed by Europe Directive 2012\/27\/EU:<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n

<\/p>\nHaving remote control entails a direct reduction in transportation-related expenses. Performing an audit requires a series of trips to the facility in question: going to connect the unit, going back to disconnect it, downloading the memory, preparing the report and returning to present solutions. Using a remote control unit with cloud data makes it possible to download the memory online and submit the report as soon as the unit is uninstalled, saving trips and therefore time and money.<\/p>\n

Fig. 1 With MYeBOX APP you can correct any <\/strong><\/em>
current sensor installation errors remotely.<\/strong><\/em><\/h6>\nImportantly, a remote connection enables the solving of unit connection problems, which are very common in these studies. Remote connectivity makes it possible to detect configuration errors, reconfigure the unit remotely, and reactivate the recording of internal data. Problems like an improperly installed current clamp will result in the calculated energy being incorrect, and problems like mismatched current and voltage phases lead to errors in calculating power factor, cosine phi, power and energy.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Fig.2 It is also possible to remotely solve any
voltage measurement connection errors.<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\nWithout remote connectivity these errors require measurements to be repeated (lasting hours, days or weeks) with the associated costs of the various trips to correct them.<\/p>\n
\nThanks to the remote configuration of MYeBOX\u00ae, you can correct connection errors and obtain the correct measurements without having to return to the facility.<\/h5>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
Don’t forget safety<\/h4>\n
A poorly configured or connected power analyzer requires going back into the switchboard to solve the problem, which entails its own electrical hazards. If, moreover, the measurements are being taken in medium voltage, more time must be spent to comply with safety protocols.<\/p>\n
Remote configuration using a smartphone or tablet makes it possible to solve all these problems without having to come into contact with active areas of the installation and avoiding electrical hazard.<\/p>\n
\n\n\n\nAutomatic free reports<\/h4>\n
As we have seen, MYeBOX\u00ae saves
logged files in its internal memory and
can also automatically send them to the
cloud server. So data can be downloaded
directly from the unit or by calling up the
server, and a link can be generated so the data can be downloaded and shared
with other users.<\/p>\n
CIRCUTOR offers its free software tool PowerVision+ for opening downloaded files, where any user can view the data logged by the analyzer in graphic or table format and export them in Excel or text format.<\/p>\n
PowerVision+ lets each user create their own templates based on the study they need to perform, adding graphics, tables, images, text, etc. Once the template has been created, any downloaded file must simply be loaded into it and the software will fill in the report with real data, which can be printed for submission to end clients. Preparing a report is no longer a tedious task, and time and effort are saved.<\/p>\n
PowerVision+ can also do an automatic study of the voltage supply quality of any installation, applying the current EN 50160 quality supply regulation in force. And, by simply pushing a button, it will automatically produce a report indicating the status of each electrical parameter according to the current regulatory framework.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

As we now know, mandatory compliance with Directive 2012\/27\/EU requires large companies to perform energy audits. In addition to complying with current law, it is important for all of us to minimize our economic and climate impact.<\/p>\n
At CIRCUTOR we encourage companies to perform energy audits for several reasons:<\/p>\n
\n- To comply with current law.<\/li>\n
- To improve their overall energy efficiency in order to reduce consumption and costs.<\/li>\n
- To foster global commitments to slowing climate change.<\/li>\n
- To incentivise eco-efficiency.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
