Energy Monitor
E527638, E527638, E535044
Measurement categories are defined by the CE and UL safety standard IEC 61010-1
and are used to indicate the ability of an instrument (like the Vue Energy Monitor)
to withstand voltage spikes without posing a shock hazard to the operator. An
instrument should only be used at or below its rated measurement category and
voltage. For example, the Inhab Energy Monitor is CAT III rated and can be used to
monitor CAT I, CAT II, and CAT III circuits.
CAT III: This category is for measurements performed on equipment permanently
installed in the building. Examples are measurements on motor control centers,
circuit-breaker panels, junction boxes, switches, lighting fixtures, and wiring,
including cables, bus-bars, and equipment for industrial use and some other equip-
ment, for example, stationary motors with permanent connections to the electrical
distribution system.
There are situations where the Inhab Energy Monitor needs to monitor the main
service entrance, which is classified as CAT IV. In this situation, the Inhab Energy
voltage inputs (green screw terminal block) must be connected in a breaker panel
or panel board, downstream of a the main disconnect, breaker, or fuses. The line
voltages at this location will be essentially identical to the voltages measured at the
main disconnect, so the Inhab Energy's measurements will be accurate.
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS-247 standard.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux
appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions
suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de
l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage
est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
