POWER AND ENERGY CONSUMPTION
#6: Power and energy
consumption
The Wall Plug allows to monitor the active power and energy con-
sumption. Data is sent to the main Z-Wave controller, e.g. Home
Center. Measuring is carried out by the most advanced micro-con-
troller technology, assuring maximum accuracy and precision.
Electric active power - power that energy receiver is changing into a
work or a heat. The unit of active power is Watt [W].
Electric energy - energy consumed by a device through a time
period. Consumers of electricity in households are billed by sup-
pliers on the basis of active power used in given unit of time. Most
commonly measured in kilowatt-hour [kWh]. One kilowatt-hour is
equal to one kilowatt of power consumed over period of one hour,
1kWh = 1000Wh.

2. Press and hold the B-button.
3. Release the B-button when the LED ring glows green (1st menu
