Installation

Warnings

• During normal operation, voltages hazardous to life may

be present at some of the terminals of this unit.
Installation and servicing should be performed only by
qualified, properly trained personnel abiding by local
regulations. Ensure all supplies are de-energised before
attempting connection or other procedures.

• Terminals should not be user accessible after installation

and external installation provisions must be sufficient to
prevent hazards under fault conditions.

• This unit is not intended to function as part of a system

providing the sole means of fault protection - good
engineering practice dictates that any critical function be
protected by at least two independent and diverse
means.

• The unit does not have internal fuses therefore external

fuses must be used for protection and safety under fault
conditions.

• Never open-circuit the secondary winding of an

energised current transformer.

• This product should only be operated with the CT

secondary connections earthed.

• If this equipment is used in a manner not specified by the

manufacturer, protection provided by the equipment may
be impaired.

Caution: Risk of

Electric Shock

Case Dimensions:

Width 71·3 mm, Depth 57·5 mm, Length 90·5 mm
Length including fixing tag 93·5 mm.

The unit is intended for mounting on a standard DIN rail. Avoid
mounting the unit where there is excessive vibration; in excessive
direct sunlight; or outside a reasonably stable ambient temperature
of -10 to +55°C.

Safety

The unit is designed in accordance with BS EN 61010-1:2001
(IEC 61010-1:2001) – Permanently connected use, Normal
condition. Installation category III, pollution degree 2, basic
insulation for rated voltage. Measurement Category III.

EMC Installation Requirements

Whilst this unit complies with all relevant EU EMC (electro-magnetic
compatibility) regulations, any additional precautions necessary to
provide proper operation of this and adjacent equipment will be
installation dependent and so the following can only be general
guidance:

• Avoid routing wiring to this unit alongside cables and products
that are, or could be, a source of interference.

• The auxiliary supply to the unit should not be subject to
excessive interference. In some cases, a supply line filter may
be required.

• To protect the product against incorrect operation or permanent
damage, surge transients must be controlled. It is good EMC
practice to suppress transients and surges at the source. The
unit has been designed to automatically recover from typical
transients; however in extreme circumstances it may be
necessary to temporarily disconnect the auxiliary supply for a
period of greater than 5 seconds to restore correct operation.

• Screened communication leads are recommended and may be
required. These and other connecting leads may require the
fitting of RF suppression components, such as ferrite absorbers,
line filters etc., if RF fields cause problems.

• It is good practice to install sensitive electronic instruments that
are performing critical functions in EMC enclosures that protect
against electrical interference causing a disturbance in function.

Wiring

Input connections are made to screw clamp terminals. Choice of
cable should meet local regulations for the operating voltage and
current.

The current inputs of these products are designed for
connection into systems via current transformers only.

All negative current inputs are commoned inside the unit and
grounding should be at one point only. To minimise measurement
errors, the CTs should be grounded as shown in the wiring
diagram.

CT secondaries must be grounded in accordance with local
regulations. It is desirable to make provision for shorting links to be
made across CTs to permit easy replacement of a unit should this
ever be necessary.

Additional considerations for three wire systems

The neutral terminal (terminal N) is indirectly connected to the
voltage input terminals (terminals L1, L2, L3). When connected to
a three wire system the neutral terminal will adopt a potential
somewhere between the remaining lines.

If external wiring is connected to the neutral terminal it must be
connected to either the neutral line or earth (ground) to avoid the
possibility of electric shock from the neutral terminal.

Fusing

This unit must be fitted with external fuses in voltage and auxiliary
supply lines. Voltage input lines must be fused with a quick blow
fuse 1A maximum. Auxiliary supply lines must be fused with a slow
blow fuse rated 1A maximum. Choose fuses of a type and with a
breaking capacity appropriate to the supply and in accordance with
local regulations.

A suitable switch or circuit breaker should be included in the
installation. It should be positioned so as to be easy to operate, in
close proximity to the equipment, and clearly identified as the
disconnecting device.

Earth/Ground Connections

For safety reasons, current transformer secondary connections
should be grounded in accordance with local regulations. Under no
circumstances should this product be operated without this earth
connection.

Maintenance

In normal use, little maintenance is needed. As appropriate for
service conditions, isolate from electrical power, inspect the unit
and remove any dust or other foreign material present. Periodically
check all connections for freedom from corrosion and screw
tightness, particularly if vibration is present.

The front of the case should be wiped with a dry cloth only. Use
minimal pressure, especially over the viewing window area. If
necessary wipe the rear case with a dry cloth. If a cleaning agent is
necessary, isopropyl alcohol is the only recommended agent and
should be used sparingly. Water should not be used. If the rear
case exterior or terminals should be contaminated accidentally with
water, the unit must be thoroughly dried before further service.
Should it be suspected that water might have entered the unit,
factory inspection and refurbishment is recommended.

In the unlikely event of a repair being necessary, it is recommended
that the unit be returned to the factory or nearest Crompton
Instruments/Tyco Electronics service centre.
