WARNING
Failure to attach the protective earth ground wire securely to the
enclosure creates a potential shock hazard. Do not operate the Class
2000 meter without a protective earth ground connection securely
installed.
3. Wire Entry.
a. Two openings exist on the unit enclosure, one for 1/2” conduit and one for 3/
4” conduit. The 3/4” conduit opening located on the bottom of the enclosure
is used to bring in MAINS Power (voltage lines to power meter) and current
sensor wiring. The 1/2” conduit opening located on the top of the enclosure
is used to interface low voltage signals, such as the IDR interface and isolated pulse output. (Outdoor enclosures equipped with one 3/4” conduit
opening on bottom of enclosure only.)
b. Route the appropriate cabling to and through the respective enclosure open-
ing. The conduit and fittings interfacing the enclosure entrances must be UL
listed and properly sized to the enclosure port diameter, The interfacing fitting must use a gasket seal ring to interface between the conduit fitting and
the enclosure entry point. After installing the conduit fitting and conduit, verify
that the conduit fittings are aligned properly to their respective enclosure
entrance ports and tightened securely to prevent moisture entry. VERIFY
that each conduit slip nut is securely tightened to its respective conduit fitting.
c. Outdoor applications require the use of the optional 4X enclosure. The same
principles outlined for indoor meter installations as defined in the aforementioned paragraph carry over and apply to outdoor installations with one
exception. The exception is that the conduit and fittings for outdoor installations require an outdoor material rating and approval for 4X applications.
4. Unit MAINS Wiring (Voltage Wiring Connections)
a. Remove the shield located over the phase A,B and C screw terminals on the
main power board. This shield can be removed by pulling back on the latch
on the right side of the shield and lifting up on the front. Wire each connection to the terminal block with stranded wire 14-12 AWG, rated at 600 VAC.
b. Strip back all wire insulation to expose between 1/4” and 3/8” of the copper
conductors. Gently twist each wire to prevent fraying. Insert the conductors
into their respective terminal block position and tighten down the terminal
block screw to securely fasten the conductor. The terminal block is clearly
labeled PHASE A, PHASE B, PHASE C and NEUTRAL.
c. Connect the NEUTRAL wire to the appropriate terminal block position.
NOTE: For Delta MAINS input wiring, DO NOT connect the NEUTRAL wire.
Remove the terminal block screw for this position.

CLASS 2000 METER
d. Connect the AC mains power wires (Phase A, Phase B and Phase C) to their
respective positions as labeled on terminal block.Tighten the screws to 7 inlb of torque.
e. After all conductors are connected to their respective terminal block positions
and tightened down, verify that each terminal block screw is securely fastened by gently tugging on each conductor. Verify no conductor wires are
frayed or are shorting to adjacent terminal block positions.
5. External Switch Mechanism/In-Line Fuse Installation
a. To ensure a safe installation, the Class 2000 meter requires an external
switch mechanism, such as a circuit breaker, be installed on the Class 2000
MAINS input wiring. The switch mechanism must be installed in close proximity to the meter and easily reachable for the operator. This device must
also be marked as the disconnecting device for the Class 2000 meter.
b. Install 1/10 Amp Slow Activation in line fuses with the suitable voltage rating
for each conductor phase at the MAINS input to the meter. The fuses must
be labeled to indicate voltage and current rating as well as element characteristics. The fuse element must be slow activating type.
6. Once the MAINS wiring is complete, replace the clear Lexan protective shield
over terminal block TB1 and close the enclosure front panel. Secure the enclosure cover using the locking mechanism. Activate the external circuit breaker or
equivalent switch to apply AC MAINS power to the unit.
7. The Class 2000 meter display should turn on and indicate total kWh accumulation reading.
NOTE: On demand meters (meters ordered with "-D-") the unit display, clock
and other critical configuration parameters will be set once the unit
installation and wiring is complete.
8. Using an AC Voltmeter, verify the input voltage readings are within the limits
9. Remove power from the unit by de-energizing the external switch.
NOTE: For 3-Wire systems, the voltages are measured Phase to Phase. On 4-
Wire systems the voltages are measured Phase to Neutral.

CLASS 2000 METER
4.3 Current Sensor Installation & Wiring
Once the AC voltages have been confirmed to be within acceptable limits, you are
ready to install the current sensors. The MAIN power board contains three header
connectors located at the bottom right of the board. The connectors are labeled A, B,
and C along with conductor color indication. This format must be followed in order for
the meter to function correctly.
The Class 2000 meter will be used with one of two basic types of current sensors:
a. Split-Core Current Sensor: This sensor opens so that it can be attached
around the circuit conductor being monitored without interrupting power.
Unless otherwise specified, all Class 2000 meters are supplied with this
sensor type.
b. Solid-Core Current Sensor: This sensor does not open and requires the
monitored conductor be removed from the circuit to install the current sensor.
This type is only supplied when specified at time of order.
NOTE: The unit serial label specifies if the unit is set up for split or solid core
current sensors. See ordering information for details.
Both types of current sensors output a 0-2 VAC signal proportional to the current being
measured.
The current sensors must be matched with the voltage phases. The A phase sensor
must be monitoring the same phase as the A phase voltage. B & C phase sensors
must also monitor the same phase as their respective voltage inputs.

SOURCE
4.3.1 Installing the Split-Core Current Sensor Assembly
Each phase being monitored will require one two-piece current sensor assembly.
Therefore, a three-phase meter will require three (3) assemblies. Open the two-piece
current sensor assembly by releasing the nylon clamp using a flat head screwdriver.
Fig. 4. Split-Core Current Sensor Assembly.
1. Reassemble the current sensor assembly around the conductor(s) to be moni-
tored. Ensure the current sensor halves marked “Load” are both facing the load
side of the conductor. The colored arrow will be on the source side of the conductor being monitored and MUST be pointed in a clockwise direction around
the conductor being monitored. Tighten the nylon clamp to complete the assembly.
Fig. 5. Arrow On The Current Sensor Assembly.
IMPORTANT:
When looking from the source side of the conductor(s) being monitored, you
should see the arrow on the current sensor assembly. The arrow should be
pointing in a clockwise direction around the conductor(s) being monitored. If
the arrow is not positioned on the source side, inaccurate readings will result.

CLASS 2000 METER
4.3.2 Installing the Solid-Core Current Sensor Assembly
The optional solid-core current sensors can be installed in the same applications as
the standard split-core units, however, the conductors that they are monitoring must
first be disconnected.
NOTE: Under no circumstances is this operation to take place without shutting
off the power to the conductor(s) being monitored.
With the power off, disconnect the conductor from its breaker or terminal. Slide the
solid-core current sensor over the conductor, making sure that the indicator on the
sensor is pointing in the direction of the load. After this is done, reconnect the
conductor and verify that it is properly installed.
Run the black and white wires from the solid-core current sensors and install them
according to the standard installation diagram. When this is completed, the power to
the monitored conductor can be turned back on.
Fig. 6. Solid-core Current Sensor.
4.3.3 Current Sensor Wiring
Once all the current sensors are installed on their appropriate phase conductors, you
can begin terminating the current sensors on to the Class 2000 main power board.
The current sensor leads can be extended up to 2,000 feet (using #14-22 AWG wire)
for remote monitoring applications. Consult your local electrical codes for proper wire
sizing (#22 AWG twisted pair wire with a black and white conductor, rated for 600 VAC
recommended.)
The current sensor connection points are located on the bottom right of the main
power board. Three removable plugs exist, one for each current sensor phase input.
The header portions of the connectors are labeled A, B and C. Text on the plastic cover
of each of the connectors instruct you which terminal of the plug is for the white
conductor and which terminal is wired to the black conductor. Once each current
sensor is wired to its respective plug, insert each plug into the appropriate header,
verifying polarity as they are installed (see section 4.6).
