To filter out reactive currents and improve power quality, businesses can use PLC filters\u00a0like our CNW 161 and CNW 163 filters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBoth filters are able to automatically filter signals in the frequency range from 50kHz to 20MHz. This protects the smart meter and helps managers to ensure compliance with the EC Directive 89\/336\/EEC.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Smart meters provide businesses with accurate energy monitoring, which can be analysed and assist in helping to reduce a facility\u2019s overall energy usage.<\/p>\n<p>Businesses cannot achieve this, however, without protecting their\u00a0smart meter from poor power quality and the issues that occur as a result.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UK industrial electricity prices\u00a0are among the highest in Europe and, in light of this, a number of\u00a0businesses are taking direct action to reduce their energy consumption.
