KW7M Eco-POWER METER ◆How to attach the Current Transformer (CT) ・One CT is needed when measuring 1P2W. Two CTs are needed when measuring 1P3W/3P3W. Using all CTs for one Eco-POWER METER should be the same. ・Check beforehand that the thickness of the electric wire is smaller than the through-hole of the CT. ・When connecting CT, connect the secondary side to the terminal of the main unit first, and after that wire the primary side to a load electric wire.
