    D. The cable type current transformer at a glance METERS | METERL are supplied with three cable type current transformers each, which are designed for measuring currents up to 300 A (METERS) or 600 A (METERL), but are otherwise identical in construction.
  • Page 12 Introduction to the METERS and METERL load management systems Energy flow arrows These arrows on the housing specify the energy flow and thus the installation direction. Connection cables The two cables are used to connect to the screw terminals 1 to 6 of the energy meter. The red wire K should be screwed into an odd-numbered terminal on the meter (1, 3 and 5), while the black wire L is as- signed to the even-numbered terminals (2, 4 and 6).

    Mechanical and electrical installation Mechanical and electrical installation The METERS and METERL load management systems can be used flexibly for the total current measurement of a sys- tem or for section current measurement within a system. Total current measurement For total current measurement, the cable type current transformers are installed on the individual phases of the house supply line and the energy meter on the house connection.

  • Page 14: Selecting The Connection Mode

    WARNING! Support for non-compatible connection modes The energy meter supplied with METERS | METERL supports other connection types in principle, although these are not required in practical use as a load management system. Therefore, always make sure that the energy me- ter is set to the appropriate connection option in the SYS menu.

  • Page 15: Installation Of The Energy Meter And The Cable Type Current Transformers

    Installation of the energy meter and the cable type current transformers Installation of the energy meter and the cable type current transformers The energy meter and the current transformers must be installed in a distribution box. Depending on the position of the current measurement, you will need to use the distributor for the house supply line (total current measurement) or the sub-distributor for the building (section current measurement).
  • Page 16 Mechanical and electrical installation Install the energy meter on a DIN rail in the distributor. y The distance to the current transformers is determined by the connection cables of the transformers. Locate the cables for current measurement in the distributor. Connect the energy meter to the mains via specially fused cable taps (F = 315 mA).
