CURRENT TRANSFORMERS (CTS) The WDAS-L1 only supports 333mV CTs. If you are using CTs not provided by Electric Avenue and have any questions, please contact support@goelectricave.com to determine compatibility. The Source arrow of the CTs should face towards the electrical service...
Ethernet switch in the L1 in order to connect these. Electric Avenue does not provide the switch by default with the L1 so you will need to source a switch that can be powered with 24V.
The shield should not be connected to any other devices, as this can cause ground loops or other undesirable behavior. CONDUIT To protect the RS-485 bus, any outside cable runs should be protected by earthed conduit according to local codes. NEED ASSISTANCE?
