NOTE: When setting an ESS Grid Usage Mode other
than the default unrestricted mode, attach the label
packaged with the CTs to the inverter.
Connecting Multiple Sets of CTs
When installing CTs, local factors may require multiple
sets of CTs to fully measure the utility power being sent to
the building.
For 4-wire, 120 / 240 VAC, split-phase service:
•
Use two pairs of CTs to measure the service. Use
each pair of CTs to measure a pair of service
conductors / feeders within the main panel.
•
Use both RJ-45 jacks with two Cat 5 cables.
•
Connect CT1 from both cables to the same phase
and CT2 cable from both cables to the second
phase.
•
See
Table 5-9: Multiple CT
Cat 5 cables from the adapters into the two CT
accessory ports at the inverter.
NOTE: Make sure to use the same pinout and
connections.
