The Smart 3pA monitors are sophisticated devices designed especially for commercial 3 phase monitoring . This monitor combines the simplicity of the Eco-eye brand but has some clever features which are useful to anyone with commercial premises which they would like to monitor in detail and get a better...
2.1. Overview Eco Eye Smart has three basic components – The sensors, the transmitter and the Wireless display. The sensors clip round the three live cables under your meter or fuse box (as illustrated above 1,2,3) and monitors the total current passing through them. This is a simple job and involves no cutting or disturbing of any wiring or the need for a qualified electrician unless you feel uncomfortable removing electrical trunking to get access to cables.

2.2 Locating your meter Once you have located your electricity meter it should look something like the one listed below. You will need to connect the 3 sensors round the 3 live cables coming into that meter. The sensors simply clip round each of the coloured cables – Red, Yellow and blue. (The black is the neutral) In the picture below there are 2 cables for each phase, generally the left hand one is from the grid and the right one is the supply to the property.
2.3 Attaching the sensors The Sensor is in two parts and one is clipped around each of the three live cables. Press the side clips of the sensor to separate the two parts. Place it around the cable. Click shut- do not force the sensor shut around a cable that is too big as this could damage the sensors inner core.

2.4 Connecting the sensors to the transmitter lug the three sensor cables into the transmitter on the underside of the transmitter. Remembering which cable is plugged into each socket. (I.e. sensor 1 = Red etc.) Press the release catch to remove the wall plate and use a double sided self-adhesive sticky pad or screw (not supplied) to affix in a convenient position close to the cables being monitored.
2.5 Power up the display unit Remove the battery cover from the display unit (and the memory card if installed) and insert 2 x C Cell batteries, ensuring they are in the right way round. Then replace the battery cover After a short power up routine you will need to input some basic information.
● Phase 3 3.1 Real-time or Predicted Mode Eco-eye Smart normally shows how much electricity you are using right now. This is real-time or predicted mode. You will see the arrow and P (see left) when you are in predicted mode.
4.1 Changing the Voltage on the display The Kilowatt value is calculated from the amps being monitored by reference to a voltage stored on the monitor. To change the stored voltage value: Use the round green button to the KW display press and hold the rectangular green button 3 seconds and Volts “SET”...
