Page 7: Section 2: Overview
Ensure that the type of voltage service that is present in the equipment you are monitoring matches the type indicated on the label of the BGS16. The BGS16 cannot be used on 480V equipment if access to N is not present nor on 600/347V circuits. The BGS16 is powered from the voltage source it is monitoring. -
Page 8: Communication
Each Gateway can support up to fifty BGS16s; additional Gateways can be added for capacity or redundancy. The BGS16 must be able to establish a wireless connection either directly to a Gateway or to another Packet Power wireless device. -

BGS16. If a three-pole breaker is not used, you must ensure suitable over-current protection is provided. The BGS16 comes pre-wired. It is configured to work with one of the supported voltage types. Unless otherwise specified, the unit has inline fuses on each voltage phase. The wire count and color mix will vary based on the voltage service type (see diagrams on the following pages). - Page 13 Packet Power Multi-Circuit Monitor BGS16 User Manual V2.0 Voltage wire connections by service type © 2021 Packet Power, LLC Page 13 of 27...

Each BGS16 has a unique 16-digit ID number that can be found on a label located on the outside of the unit in the top left corner. Each component meter also has a unique 16-digit ID number on the meter’s front label. -
Page 20: Shutdown
Shutdown No special preparation is required prior to shutdown. Using a customer-provided disconnect such as a 3-pole breaker, simply shut off power to the BGS16. Note that this disables power to the monitoring unit only. The conductors on which the CTs are installed will still have live load and must be treated accordingly, and the panel itself will still have live voltage and present a risk of electrocution. - Page 21 If a number of readings are missing, ensure the CT Interconnect Cable is securely connected to the associated CT Interconnect Board. If the BGS16 powers on but no meters are able to establish communications with a Gateway, contact Packet Power support.
