    AR4DCT are used to manage multi-circuit DC power supply such as photovoltaic combiner box. They can measure basic electrical variables such as voltage, current, power and energy of up to 33 DC circuits. AR4DCT can realize current measurement of 33 circuits at most, 4 digital inputs and 2 relay outputs. They also have over current alarm, over voltage alarm, under voltage alarm and DI linkage alarm functions.

  • Page 17: About Incorrect Power Running

    Make sure the signal wire is connected correctly, for example the dotted terminals of current signal (i.e. inlet) as well as the phase sequence of each phase should be correct. Observe power display interface of the meter, and its power symbol is displayed positive under normal condition and negative only when it is under power generation condition which is caused by wrong connection of inlet-outlet lines.
