INSTALLATION 3. INSTALLATION This section contains the following installation topics: • "Pre-Installation" • "Installation Procedures" • "Start-Up Sequence" 3.1 Pre-Installation The pre-installation checklist and site planning must be performed before installing the equipment at the site. 3.1.1 Pre-Installation Checklist The installer must provide the following information, tools, and equipment before proceeding with the installation: - Certified current transformers for metering - An appropriate 15-Amp maximum circuit breaker or a fused disconnect...
INSTALLATION 3.1.2 Site Planning 1. Determine the number of S8000 meters to be installed and ensure adequate space. 2. Determine the number of Modbus RTU or Ethernet drops required, and ensure they are installed before installing the S8000 meters. 3. Determine the number and types of meters or monitors required (Single-Phase, network, or Three-Phase).

INSTALLATION In Figure 5, the meter is powered and takes its sense voltage directly from a breaker within the panel. Figure 5: 120V Mounting Layout, Dimensions and Clearances 11.0 in 6.0 in 27.9 cm 15.2 cm 10.67 in 27.1 cm 4.0 in 10.2 cm Legend:...
NOTE: Potential transformer burden depends on the control voltage source. If control voltage is provided separately (not derived from the metered voltage), then lower transformer burden may be acceptable. Contact your local Leviton representative for details. Potential transformers must be mounted in a listed electrical enclosure as shown in Figure 6.
Page 16
INSTALLATION Mount the potential transformer enclosure between the supply voltage and the Series 8000 meters as shown in Figure 7. Transformer configuration must be Y||Y (Wye/Wye). In Figure 7, the meter is powered from the potential transformers that are fed from a breaker within the 347V/600V panel.
INSTALLATION 3.1.6 Installing the Sense Voltage and Control Voltage Cables in Wye and Delta Services The sense voltage (A, B, C, N) provides phase voltages for metering. The configuration depends on the type of service being metered: - See "For a Single-Phase panel with the 120V variant of the meter." - See "For a 120/208V Three-Phase Wye panel with the 120V variant of the meter."...

INSTALLATION Delta Service Metering To use the S8000 meter in a Delta service, the line-to-line voltage from the Delta service must be reduced to 120V line-to-line using appropriate potential transformers. Metering a Delta service requires only two potential transformers, and only two CTs for Phase A and C. Using the Phase B CT is optional. For a 3PH Delta panel with the 120V variant of the meter: - Connect meter Terminal A to the voltage disconnect Phase A (red wire) - Connect meter Terminal C to the voltage disconnect Phase C (blue wire)
INSTALLING CURRENT TRANSFORMERS 1. INSTALLING CURRENT TRANSFORMERS Both models of Series 8000 meter use current transformers (CTs) with different secondary outputs. All Series 8000 models S8UTS, 277TS, S8UWH, 277WH and S8120 meter variants uses solid- core 100mA CTs and is typically used where accuracy is important and long secondary CT wiring is required (up to 300 feet [91.44 meters]).

CONNECTING THE ETHERNET COMMUNICATIONS 5. CONNECTING THE ETHERNET COMMUNICATIONS When the Ethernet port is used to report data, an RJ45 patch cable is required to connect the Ethernet port to the local Ethernet network. 1. Route the cable through the slot in the Series 8000 meter enclosure. 2.
CONNECTING THE MODBUS RTU COMMUNICATIONS 6. CONNECTING THE MODBUS RTU COMMUNICATIONS If the Modbus port is used to report data, an RS422/RS485 serial cable is required to connect the Modbus RTU port to the local Modbus network. 1. Route the cable through the slot in the Series 8000 meter enclosure. 2.
4. Power up the meter. The LCD on the front panel of the meter indicates the operating status of the unit as follows: a. Initial power up message "LEVITON" b. After the internal configuration is complete, the display shows default information for the first meter.
PULSE INPUTS 8. PULSE INPUTS There are two Pulse In terminal blocks in the Series 8000 meter, as shown in Figure 2. Each terminal block has a negative terminal pin on the right and a positive terminal pin on the left. The pulse inputs are compatible with both dry and solid-state form A contacts, 10 Hz (maximum), 20 ms pulse width (minimum).
DISPLAY NAVIGATION 9. DISPLAY NAVIGATION The Series 8000 meter has three buttons to control the information presented on the LCD. The display has a normal and a diagnostics mode. The Series 8000 meter starts in normal mode, and enters diagnostics mode when the Display button is pressed and held for 5 seconds.
