2. Connect CT around the load

conductor to be measured. Make
sure the maximum current of the
conductor does not exceed CT's
rating. Arrow points towards load.

The conductor should be in the
inside of the CT window (See Photo

2.)

4. Repeat Steps 1-3 if you are using

more than one CT.

5. Connect the brown wire on the CT

to the negative terminal on the
measuring device. (See Photo 3.)

6. Connect the white wire on the CT

to the positive terminal on the
measuring device. (See Photo 3.)
