Description:
An Advanced Load Control Solution for Managing Peak Demand
The L532 and L534 are compact, wired load control switches that connect and operate reliably and securely over the Landis+Gyr Gridstream RF Mesh or Mesh IP networks to provide a flexible direct load control solution for managing peak demand.
The L532 and L534 advanced load control switches allow utilities to manage multiple large residential electrical loads to flatten system peak loading and minimize demand charges. These switches enable two-way direct load control (DLC) and demand response (DR). The high-power relay(s) can be used with typical wired 120 VAC, 208 VAC and 240 VAC loads up to 30 A or 1.5 HP. Compatible loads include pool pumps, electric water heaters, electric vehicle charging stations, baseboard heaters and HVAC compressors.
The L532/L534 switches use integrated Gridstream RF Series 5 radio modules to provide robust, two-way communications utilizing the AMI network to monitor controllable load and ensure operations are carried out and confirmed on schedule. The switches can route messages through meters and routers or directly to a data collector, giving utilities a robust and cost-effective option to implement demand response and realize a greater return on smart grid investments.
Features
Features of the L532/L534 include:
- Operate with the Landis+Gyr Advanced Load Management (ALM) platform
- Independent relay control (two relays for L532, and four relays for L534)
- Configurable cold load pick-up to prevent large current draw upon restoration
- Load control with standard and OptiCycle™ adaptive cycling
- Power measurement to monitor controllable load every 5 minutes
