Connection Procedure; Disconnection Procedure - AEMC PowerPad III 8336 User Manual

1. Four (4) current input terminals on the top of the instrument to enable the use of current sensors (MN, SR, AmpFlex
MiniFlex , MR, SL & J93 probes).
®
2. Five (5) voltage input terminals (measures four voltages).
3. Insertion locations for the current and voltage color-coded ID markers.
NOTE: Remember to define the transformation ratios of the current sensors and of the voltage inputs (see § 4.1.5).
To make a measurement, the following must be configured and programmed:
■ Calculation method (see § 4.1.3)
■ Electrical hook-up (see § 4.1.4)
■ Ratios of the sensors (see § 4.1.5)

3.3.1 CONNECTION PROCEDURE

1. Turn the instrument ON.
2. Configure the instrument for the measurement to be made and the type of network concerned (see § 4).
3. Connect the leads and current sensors to the unit.
4. Connect the ground and/or neutral lead to the network ground and/or neutral (when it is distributed) and connect the
corresponding current sensor.
5. Connect the L1 phase lead to the network L1 phase and connect the corresponding current sensor.
6. If applicable, repeat the procedure for phases L2 and L3 and for N.
NOTE: Complying with this procedure minimizes connection errors and saves time.

3.3.2 DISCONNECTION PROCEDURE

1. Proceed in the reverse of the order of connection, always finishing by disconnecting the neutral (when distributed).
2. Disconnect the leads and turn the instrument OFF.
