NOTE: Potential transformer burden depends on the control voltage source. If control voltage is provided separately (not derived from the metered voltage), then lower transformer burden may be acceptable. Contact your local Leviton representative for details. Potential transformers must be mounted in a listed electrical enclosure as shown in Figure 6.
Page 16
3 INSTALLATION Mount the potential transformer enclosure between the supply voltage and the Series 8000 meters as shown in Figure 7. Transformer configuration must be Y||Y (Wye/Wye). In Figure 7, the meter is powered from the potential transformers that are fed from a breaker within the 347V/600V panel.

3 INSTALLATION 3.1.6 Installing the Sense Voltage and Control Voltage Cables in Wye and Delta Services The sense voltage (A, B, C, N) provides phase voltages for metering. The configuration depends on the type of service being metered: - See "For a Single-Phase panel with the 120V variant of the meter." - See "For a 120/208V Three-Phase Wye panel with the 120V variant of the meter."...

Page 25
3 INSTALLATION Delta Service Metering To use the S8000 meter in a Delta service, the line-to-line voltage from the Delta service must be reduced to 120V line-to-line using appropriate potential transformers. Metering a Delta service requires only two potential transformers, and only two CTs for Phase A and C. Using the Phase B CT is optional. For a 3PH Delta panel with the 120V variant of the meter: - Connect meter Terminal A to the voltage disconnect Phase A (red wire) - Connect meter Terminal C to the voltage disconnect Phase C (blue wire)
This information is also inside of the meter's outer cover. Each CT has an X1 (positive) and X2 (neutral) wire pair. Leviton recommends using butt-splice connectors to attach the CT to a specific meter wire pair. The direction of the energy flow is indicated on the CT.

5 CONNECTING THE ETHERNET COMMUNICATIONS When the Ethernet port is used to report data, an RJ45 patch cable is required to connect the Ethernet port to the local Ethernet network. 1. Route the cable through the slot in the Series 8000 meter enclosure. 2.
6 CONNECTING THE MODBUS RTU COMMUNICATIONS If the Modbus port is used to report data, an RS422/RS485 serial cable is required to connect the Modbus RTU port to the local Modbus network. 1. Route the cable through the slot in the Series 8000 meter enclosure. 2.
4. Power up the meter. The LCD on the front panel of the meter indicates the operating status of the unit as follows: a. Initial power up message "LEVITON" b. After the internal configuration is complete, the display shows default information for the first meter.
8 PULSE INPUTS There are two Pulse In terminal blocks in the Series 8000 meter, as shown in Figure 2. Each terminal block has a negative terminal pin on the right and a positive terminal pin on the left. The pulse inputs are compatible with both dry and solid-state form A contacts, 10 Hz (maximum), 20 ms pulse width (minimum).
9 DISPLAY NAVIGATION The Series 8000 meter has three buttons to control the information presented on the LCD. The display has a normal and a diagnostics mode. The Series 8000 meter starts in normal mode, and enters diagnostics mode when the Display button is pressed and held for 5 seconds. To adjust the contrast, hold down the Display button, and use the right and left arrow buttons to increase and decrease the contrast respectively.
• Click on your specific Series 8000 model • Click on the “Software - Series 8000 Configuration Tool” link Unzip and run the install program provided with the Leviton Configuration Tool application on a Windows laptop or desktop computer. 10.1 Network and Meter Setup Power up the S8000 from the aux.
