Greeting experts!
We have a new machine we just built. It is equipped with regenerative drives. The machine uses Beckhoff controls (PLC and I/O). I installed an EL3453 with the appropriate current transformer. Out of the box, the EL3453 gets various 3P power data coming into the machine off the mains - (current, voltage, active power, reactive power, apparent power, active energy, reactive energy, apparent energy, frequency, power quality factor). With all this, would it be possible to also calculate the regen'd power/current going back out to the grid??
Thanks.
