Data Logging
The Essential First Step
Need a Data Logger on Your Site?
What is Data Logging?
Data logging is the systematic process of recording electrical consumption over a defined period of time with specialised electrical data loggers. Data loggers are compact electrical tools equipped with sensors and storage capabilities to accurately capture and store your business’ electricity consumption data.
Why Is Data Logging Essential?
Identifying where a system’s electrical consumption and loss occurs is crucial for designing an effective solar solution. The key to determining the correct system size for optimal return on investment (ROI) is having a reliable source of accurate electrical consumption data — without this data it is down to a guessing game. At Orilla, our experienced engineers utilise state-of-the-art electrical data loggers to capture precise data on your site’s electricity consumption patterns. This enables us to design the optimal solar system for all your business’ needs and the best ROI.
Analyses and Interpretation
Data loggers are essential for monitoring, recording and managing your electricity consumption more effectively. They are specifically designed to measure key parameters, enabling us to accurately determine your required system specifications, identify potential savings on your electrical bill and optimise your ROI.
