TRIACTA GATEWAY-S Meter Head. The TRIACTA GATEWAY-S Meter Head may be installed at a later time by a technician with no electrical accreditation. Figures 2 and 3 show the external and internal views of the TRIACTA GATEWAY-S meter.
Page 13: Triacta Gateway-S Meter Base
CT/Pulse Wiring Earth Modules Stud TRIACTA GATEWAY-S Meter Base The TRIACTA GATEWAY-S Meter Base supports connection points for the following: • One Reference/Supply Voltage Input. • One self-shorting input module supports 12 wire pairs for CTs or pulse output devices.
Page 14: Triacta Gateway-S Measurement Modules
A Pulse Counter Measurement module supports up to 12 pulse counters. TRIACTA GATEWAY-S Voltage Module The Voltage Module of the TRIACTA GATEWAY-S has a single 4-pin terminal block input for both the sense voltage and the control voltage. The voltage inputs on the voltage module (A, B, C and N) provide the sense phase voltages (VAC) used for metering different service types The sense voltage inputs will accept panel voltages from 120VAC to 600VAC.

Page 16: Triacta Gateway-S Ct / Termination Modules
TRIACTA GATEWAY-S CT / Termination Modules Current transformers and pulse output devices are connected to the TRIACTA GATEWAY-S via specially designed self-shorting CT / Termination Modules as shown in figure 6. The self-shorting mechanism on each CT / Termination Module is activated when the Wiring Module is not connected to the TRIACTA GATEWAY-S Meter Head unit.
Page 17: Triacta Gateway-S Flex Configurations
Figure 6: CT / Termination Modules TRIACTA GATEWAY-S FLEX configurations In Flex configuration, The CT inputs in the TRIACTA GATEWAY-S can be each assigned to any combination of 1-element, 2-element or 3-element meters in any order. Each individual CT input pair can be grouped with any other one or two CT pairs to create a 2-Element or 3- element meter.
Page 18: Pre-Installation Instructions
(OR) Determine the number of pulse counters required Determine the number of TRIACTA GATEWAY-S or TRIACTA GATEWAY-S systems to be installed and ensure adequate space. For clearances, see Figure 7. Determine the type of Measurement Modules required for each TRIACTA GATEWAY-S system.
Page 19: Installation Instructions
Remove the front cover from the meter by removing the three screws with a #2 Phillips screwdriver. Retain the cover and screws for later re-installation. Mount the TRIACTA GATEWAY-S on the wall and secure it by inserting a screw in each mounting keyhole and tightening the screws.
Page 20: Install Ct / Pulse Termination Module Into The Meter Base Unit
Install CT / Pulse Termination Module into the Meter Base Unit If a CT / Pulse Screw Terminal Module are ordered with the GATEWAY-S it is shipped pre- installed in the Meter Base module. If a CT/Pulse Whip Cable Module is ordered, it will be shipped separate from the base unit and must be installed as shown in Figure 8 below.
Page 21: Voltage Module Wiring For Trial Gateway-S Meters
4. If more than one meter is being installed, repeat this procedure for each additional meter. NOTE: The phase wiring sequence A, B, C, and Neutral between the TRIACTA GATEWAY-S meter and the circuit breaker panel must match or the measurement readings will be incorrect.
Page 22 TRIACTA GATEWAY-S™ The Voltage module on the trial GATEWAY-S meters have 6 terminals, i.e. three phases with their respective neutral terminals: Phase A, A ret, Phase B, B ret, Phase C and C ret. The wiring diagram for the aforementioned version of the voltage module can be found in appendix: 3 on Page 37 and 38.
Page 25: Install And Connect Cts
• Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm the power is off. • NEVER open circuit a CT; Connecting CTs to a TRIACTA GATEWAY-S CT / Termination Module will ensure that the CT wire pairs are always either shorted or terminated by the Meter Head.
Page 26 When connecting CTs to a CT / Pulse Whip Cable Module, If using a CT / Pulse Screw Terminal Module, skip to step 4. Feed the whip cable through one of the GATEWAY-S conduit adapter plates and conduit connector as shown in Figure 8.
Page 27 TRIACTA GATEWAY-S™ When installing 5 Amp output CTs Where 5A output CTs are required, they can be connected to a TRIACTA GATEWAY- S with an 80mA CT Measurement Module using TRIACTA 5A:80mA CT converters (Refer to Figure 19.). Install or use an existing sealable metal enclosure outside of the electrical panel within 10 feet of the 5A CTs.
Page 28: Connect Pulse Inputs
Each pulse input is compatible with both dry (reed) and solid-state Form A contacts. When the pulsing device provides solid-state form A outputs, the negative terminal from the source device must be connected to the negative (-) terminal of the TRIACTA GATEWAY-S pulse in the terminal block.
Page 29: Install The Cover
A copy of Figure 17, which is organized to resemble a breaker panel, is provided with each TRIACTA GATEWAY- S and is to be completed and delivered to your system administrator.
Page 31: Maintenance
Meter Head Servicing or Replacement Before removing the Meter Head, be sure to turn off all the power feed/s to the TRIACTA GATEWAY-S Meter Base unit. Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm power is off.
Page 32: Appendix 1: Current Transformers Overview
0.333 V 330 ft. (100 m) / 22 AWG As shown in Table 5, 5 Amp secondary CTs can work with the TRIACTA GATEWAY-S by using TRIACTA 5A:100mA or 5A:80mA CT convertors (Figure 19). One convertor is required for each 5A secondary CT.
Page 33: Ct Orientation
The X1/X2 outputs from each CT for each circuit must be connected to the X1/X2 inputs of each corresponding CT input connection on the appropriate TRIACTA GATEWAY-S CT wiring module. When installing CTs in a panel, ensure that all CT wiring is labeled with the proper X1/X2 designations, or that it follows a standard X1/X2 color pair mapping.
Page 34: Ct Phasing
CT. The CT / Termination Modules have built-in shorting that is activated whenever the TRIACTA GATEWAY-S Meter Head unit is not installed. 5A CTs should have their own shorting/shunt connector that allows each set of 5A CTs to be independently shorted at the 5A secondary (see Figure 19).
Page 35: Ct Naming Designations
(named) by a meter number and an element number (meter- element). The TRIACTA GATEWAY-S can support any combination of a single element, two-element, and/or three-element meters in any order, up to a total of 12, elements depending on the number of installed CT modules.
