ESB Three-Phase Unbalance Detector
ESB Series
Real-time monitoring of three-phase unbalance and zero-sequence current, warning grid-unbalance risks and reducing line losses and equipment wear.

Product Overview
The ESB Three-Phase Unbalance Monitor is a smart monitoring terminal dedicated to in-depth diagnosis of unbalance in low-voltage three-phase distribution systems. The product dynamically calculates in real time the zero-sequence voltage unbalance, negative-sequence voltage unbalance, zero-sequence current unbalance and negative-sequence current unbalance, and provides key indicators such as the phase angle and voltage difference of each phase line. The product exclusively decomposes positive-sequence, negative-sequence and zero-sequence components to precisely locate the root cause of grid unbalance. With its unique vector calculation model, it directly provides 130+ monitoring items covering 6 major categories and 17 parameters - voltage, current, power, energy, power factor, phase angle, unbalance and frequency - equivalent to the combined functions of 5 instruments.
Core Application Scenarios
Three-phase unbalance monitoring and management of low-voltage distribution cabinets. Balanced management of precision power distribution in data centers.
