STEP 9. Identify A-Row and B-Row Breakers NOTE: For purposes of Lumin installation, the top row of breakers will always be classified as “A”. The second row of standard breakers will be “B”. The alternating A-B-A-B pattern continues down the rows of breakers.
Page 21
Exception: Use a single-pole breaker for “Line A” and securely cap “Line B” in panels with two-wire single-phase power rather than three-wire single-phase (split phase). Mark the breaker with a clearly identifying label (ex. “Lumin Smart Panel Power”). DO NOT CONNECT THESE CONDUCTORS TO GFCI BREAKERS. Do not double-tap breakers unless they are appropriately rated.

The LSP can connect to up to 12 single-pole (or six double-pole) circuit breakers. Each hot leg of a double-pole circuit must be connected to its own numbered Lumin wire set (ex. LSP controls a clothes dryer. Dryer Leg "A" is connected to LSP Line 3. Dryer Leg "B" is connected to LSP Line 4).

CTs as well as leads for an optional set of auxiliary CTs which is available for purchase from Lumin. Most LSP installations do not utilize auxiliary CTs and use the main CTs to measure the total consumption of the electrical panel(s) backed up by a battery. In this typical installation, the CTs are placed on the feeders from the Microgrid Interconnect Device (MID) or Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) to the electrical panel, as shown in Figure A.
Page 28
“A”. Whichever feeder leg supplies breaker Row A will be designated “A.” NOTE: Lumin CTs are designated either “A” or “B”. Placing them on the incorrect leg of a circuit will result in erroneous consumption data. If the panel is a main-lug-only type as shown in Figure B (no main circuit breaker) then the feeder on the left will be Lumin Leg “A”.
Page 29
Lumin Smart Panel - Outdoor DOCUMENTATION AND INSTALLATION MANUAL STEP 18. Testing for Crossover before Current Transformer Placement To determine A and B feeders when a main circuit breaker is present, test for AC voltage between the left lug and the left bus bar*.
Page 30
STEP 19. Connecting Current Transformers Prior to installation, measure the CT leads’ routing path(s) in the electrical panel. Local electrical codes may require securing CT wiring at regular intervals. If the provided leads are not long enough, fashion CT wire extensions in the field.

STEP 25. Reinstall LSP Cover Completed Exterior Wall Mount Installation WARNING: FOR ALL OUTDOOR INSTALLATIONS, OPERATING THE LSP WITH THE COVER REMOVED DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER (RAIN, SNOW, SLEET, DUSTY CONDITIONS, ETC) WILL VOID THE WARRANTY. THE NEMA RATING IS ONLY APPLICABLE WITH THE COVER INSTALLED. NORMAL OPERATION/INSTALLATION OF THE LSP INCLUDES THE INSTALLATION OF THE COVER.
Alternatively, contact Lumin directly for assistance. Qualified Installer Observe all safety precautions (pg. 2). Be aware that Lumin app readings may not accurately reflect electrical conditions, so always assume that the LSP circuits are enabled and conductors are live.
Setup Mode and that Wi-Fi connectivity is enabled on the mobile device. NOTE: To manually enable all circuits controlled by Lumin, turn LSP power off, then on, then off once again. Leave the LSP off and all controlled circuits will function normally.
