3. Device overview 3.1 Brief description The SINEAX AM2000 is a comprehensive instrument for the universal measurement and monitoring in power systems. A full parameterization of all functions of the AM2000 is possible directly at the device. The universal measurement system of the device may be used directly for any power system, from single phase up to 4-wire unbalanced networks, without hardware modifications.
Pay attention to the fact, that current transformers must be shortened before removing the current connections to the device. Then demount the device in the opposite order of mounting (4.2). 7/62 Device handbook SINEAX AM2000, 173 849, 04/2015...

When using current transformers their secondary connectors must be short-circuited during installation and before removing the device. Never open the secondary circuit under load. The connection of the inputs depends on the configured system (connection type). 10/62 Device handbook SINEAX AM2000, 173 849, 04/2015...
