For the PQ Metering and Dashboard:
Inaugural PQ Metering User Group Meeting, Tuesday, April 24, 2018
This group was created from the need of utilities to share information around the best use, configuration, and deployment of PQ metering devices.  This year’s meeting will focus on the ION series of PQ meters and template configurations.   A representative from Schneider Electric will be on hand to present, answer questions, have an open discussion on utility experiences, and standardizing on template designs.
Membership is free; however, attendance must be approved by EPRI.  Registration will be through the PQ-Week CVENT website.  For more information, please contact Tom Cooke.

Open PQ Dashboard Users Group Meeting, Wednesday, April 25, 2018
This user-group presents an opportunity for users and potential users to learn more about the Open PQ Dashboard and Dashboard concepts in general. The meeting will explore how the Open PQ Dashboard is being utilized by other utilities, and give guidance on future development.  The meeting will start with the developers demonstrating the latest version—highlighting most recent improvements.  Sample use cases will be presented from utilities that have deployed the dashboard.  The day will wrap up with feedback and discussions on future development.  

Membership is not needed to attend; however, attendance must be approved by EPRI.  Registration for this meeting will be through the PQ-Week CVENT website.  For more information on the Open PQ Dashboard, please visit PQ Dashboard Information, or email Tom Cooke.
