Introduction

equser is the open-source Python interface to EQ Wave power quality data and sensors. It provides tools for loading, analyzing, and visualizing high-resolution electrical measurements.

What equser does

equser can work with EQ Wave data in several ways:

• Load and analyze Parquet files stored by an EQ gateway, including continuous waveform (CPOW) and power monitoring (PMon) data
• Connect directly to an EQ Wave sensor to collect PMon data in real time
• Capture waveform snapshots on demand via an EQ gateway
• Query gateway APIs for historical data, events, and live streams
• Visualize power quality data with publication-ready matplotlib plots

Data formats

Quick install

pip install equser              # Data loading and analysis
pip install equser[analysis]    # Add plotting and API client
pip install equser[jupyter]     # Full notebook environment

Get started

See the Installation guide, then follow the Quick Start tutorial.

What requires a license

Nothing in equser does, and nothing on the sensor does. equser is MIT-licensed. The EQ Wave sensor’s data ports are open and unauthenticated: PMon metrics on TCP 1535 and continuous waveform on TCP 1534, both at full rate and full resolution. Reading your own measurements, from the sensor, from Parquet files, or from a gateway API, needs no entitlement.

Licensed capability sits above that: standards-based compliance analysis, industrial protocol egress, control, and EQ Syntropy. See the platform overview.

The broader platform

equser is one component of the Energy Quotient platform for continuous waveform intelligence. For the full capabilities, including real-time CPOW visualization through EQ Sight and power system intelligence through EQ Syntropy, see the platform overview.
