E-Mon® Series Global User Manual
3.3. Current Sensor
The energy meters come with CS to be installed with the E-Mon® Class 6000 meter. The meter
has dedicated terminals for connecting current sensor. The current sensor shall be installed
with the meter for Current measurement functions.
The E-Mon Energy meters support low voltage current sensors. Users can configure the CS
with the E-Mon® energy meter. The CS is mounted with the power line and as current passes
through the magnetic aperture, it induces a flux in the core. This magnetic flux flows through
the sensor element resulting in a voltage generation which is proportional to the magnetic
flux. The CS offers a high system accuracy and better productivity.
Details on the available versions of current sensors is available in Table 3. Current Sensors for
E-Mon Energy Meter. The Current Sensor shall be commissioned for the appropriate current
rating with the E-Mon energy meter. The E-Mon Energy meter uses low voltage current
sensors for measurement. The meters are tested for current sensor with output of 0.333 VAC
and an input current ranging from 20 A – 5000 A depending upon installation.
•
The E-Mon energy meter operates with current sensors which require mounting and
connection.
•
Mount and configuration of the current sensor shall be done during meter installation.
Refer Table 4 for specifications
•
The current sensor configuration is accessible in front panel menu. Refer section 4.4.3
•
All CS are released with a tested label which can serve as the basis of calibration during
meter commissioning.
•
The CS shall connect with the meter via dedicated ports available at the top of the meter
body.
•
Once the rotating terminals are arranged, the connections shall be made using L1, L2 and
L3 terminals.
•
For setting up of the CS ratio and measurement configuration, kindly refer to the CS guide
or trained personnel. Please refer to Table 1 for the guide on Current Sensors.
