Current Sensor Wiring - E-Mon Din-Mon D5 Installation Instructions Manual

DIN-MON™ SMART METER

4.5.3 Current Sensor Wiring

Once the current sensors are installed onto their appropriate phase conductors, you
can begin terminating the current sensors onto the meter. The current sensor wires
can be extended up to 500 feet for remote monitoring applications. To extend the
length of the wires, use #22 AWG twisted-pair wire with one white and one black wire.
The current sensor connection points are located at the bottom right of the meter. Each
sensor connects to two terminals, one labeled "WHT" for white and the other "BLK" for
black. Connect current sensor from phase A to terminal 1 and 2, current sensor from
phase B to terminal 3 and 4, current sensor from phase C to terminal 5 and 6; torque
screws to 2 in-lbs.
The terminal cover has breakable teeth to let the wires feed through; break the teeth as
needed, once completed replace the terminal cover and secure in place.
After all meter circuit wiring has been examined for correctness, power may be applied
to the meter. If the monitored circuit is under load, the arrow in the lower right corner of
the display will blink off and on. Very light loads will result in an extended blink time.
Use the meter's built-in current sensor diagnostics to ensure proper orientation and
installation of the current sensors. In order to verify the orientation, there must be at
least 1% of the meter's current rating (Amps) flowing in each of the conductors being
monitored.
Refer to Section 4.7.2, Current Sensor Diagnostics, for assistance in
troubleshooting these errors.
