Abstract

A base transceiver station site operates continuously, so electricity cost is a major operational
expenditure. Two energy meters normally work in parallel at such a site: the utility kilowatt-hour
meter used as the legal basis for billing and an internal digital power meter connected to the power
management system for operational monitoring. A discrepancy between the two readings can
reduce the reliability of bill verification. This study analyses the measurement deviation between
both instruments at a base transceiver station site in Lamongan Regency and evaluates the voltage
profile, current profile, and three-phase load unbalance at the same site. A comparative quantitative
method was applied by recording both meters at four observation points within ten days. During
the ten-day period, the utility meter registered 2216.08 kilowatt-hours, while the digital power
meter registered 2205.35 kilowatt-hours, giving a deviation of 10.73 kilowatt-hours or 0.48 percent.
This value is lower than the ±1 percent class 1 benchmark used for comparison in this study. The
voltage unbalance stayed below two percent, whereas the current unbalance reached 29 to 46
percent; therefore, redistribution of the single-phase loads is recommended.
