Systems and methods for displaying electric power system metering information in a panel may use digitized signals from primary protection relays. The system may include multiple panel meters. One or more of the panel meters may receive the digitized signals using an electrically non-conductive communication media. In various embodiments, the panel may be electrically isolated from the primary protection relay. The panel may be hot swappable and may be connected to a primary protection relay while the relay is in continuous operation.

Certain aspects and features include a system and method for energy measurement in electric meter systems. In an example, an electric meter receives an Alternating Current (A/C) signal. The electric meter includes a current measurement device that is configured to obtain a current measurement of a current of the A/C signal. The current measurement includes a fundamental frequency component and a noise component. The electric meter receives a current measurement signal from the current measurement device and filters the noise component from the current measurement, thereby creating a filtered current measurement signal. When the filtered current measurement signal is greater than a starting current threshold, the electric meter calculates an energy consumption measurement.

Methods for measuring power consumption include providing an assembly with electronic display subassemblies at a housing. The subassemblies each include light sources behind or adjacent to an electronic display layer and electricity consuming components. A simulated electric meter is electrically interposed between a utility electric supply and the electricity consuming components. The simulated electric meter includes a processor, an electronic storage device, and a current sensor. The assembly is operated. Current measurements are taken at the simulated electric meter. The power consumed is determined by multiplying each of the one or more current measurements with a predetermined amount or measurements from a voltage sensor to determine one or more power consumption measures.

A method of deriving information from sampled data, for example, in a digital data stream, includes processing the sampled data, for example, in the high-speed data acquisition device to detect an event in the sampled data. The sampled data is converted/transformed to its first derivative representation, and zero crossing information from the first derivative representation of the sampled data is used to determine local minima and maxima and their relative offset in time to a common point in time. Information from, or derived from, the local minima and maxima and the relative offset are provided to an upstream device. The upstream device may process the local minima and maxima and the relative offset, for example, to characterize the event.
