Meters must be installed and maintained only by suitably-qualified personnel. Observe the following safety advice
when performing installation or service work on meters.
Meter handling
Before installing or removing a meter, or removing the terminal cover for any reason, isolate the
meter from the mains supply by removing the supply-side fuses or using alternative local
arrangements. Take appropriate measures to ensure that the isolation cannot be overridden by
another person. For example, keep physical possession of the supply fuses.
• Adhere strictly to all relevant national regulations for the avoidance of electrical accidents.
• Always disconnect all measurement and auxiliary circuit connections from the meter before
attempting to open the meter housing.
• Use only tools that have been approved for electrical installations.
• Clean meters only with a damp cloth or sponge. Do not use excessive or running water.
Installation
Install meters in accordance with the voltage and current specifications printed on the front panel and
the wire and environmental specifications given in the installation information.
• The meter measuring and auxiliary circuits must be galvanically isolated.
Installation Guide SL7000 RT
• All voltage paths (measurement and auxiliary) must be fused.
• The meter voltage connections must be physically separated from the communication lines
in accordance with local laws and regulations.
• Do not install meters that are obviously damaged.
• Do not install meters that have been dropped or otherwise subjected to significant impact
even if no damage can be seen.
• Do not HIPOT/Dielectric test the auxiliary or communication circuit connections.
• Do not use any meter functions or features for primary protection purposes.

6. Technical description
Rogowski
The main components of the SL7000 meter are assembled onto four printed circuit boards (PCBs):
• metrology voltage divider circuitry and the switched-mode power supply
• microcontroller and memory devices
• I/O circuitry
• LCD display
As a manufacturing option, the meter may be equipped with an additional PCB providing further serial
communication ports.
The block diagram below shows the main functional elements of the meter.
Installation Guide SL7000 RT

Page 27
Installation Guide SL7000 RT
D2021471
-AA
6.1. Metrology
The SL7000 RT uses Rogowski loops as current sensors, instead of MCT that are used in the conventional
SL7000 CT or DC.
Rogowski loops are based on Ampère’s law stating that the integral value of the magnetic field over any closed
path surrounding a current conductor is related to the amount of current flowing through this path.
A Rogowski sensor delivers a voltage strictly proportional to the derivative value of the current(s) embraced. So
their output is equivalent to the MCT sensors.
The SL7000 RT meters are calibrated in the factory with their Rogowski loops attached, as shipped, so no
additional calibration is required in the field.
The Rogowski sensors used by the SL7000 RT can be installed over current cables easily thanks to its quick clipon system. Their dynamic range allows using a unique model addressing installations rated from 200kVA to
2MVA.
The three current sensors generate a signal per phase that is proportional to the instantaneous current, while
voltage signals are derived by dividing the distribution-network line voltages through a resistive divider.
The current and voltage input signals are sampled and digitised 40 times per cycle (50Hz) by an analogue to
digital (A-to-D) converter, then processed by a microcontroller to derive various energy values. The
microcontroller records these values in a suite of registers that are independent of any meter configuration and
are always available.
These registers accumulate their respective energy values in an incremental fashion, until they reach the register
limit. At that point they are automatically reset to zero in the same way as roll-over electromechanical meter
types.
The contents of these registers can be displayed at any time as instantaneous values on the meter LCD.
The microcontroller also controls the data transfer to the various inputs and outputs, visible metrological LEDs
and infrared port.

9.1. Warnings
DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
Before and during installation of a meter, observe all requirements given in the Safety information.
In particular:
Installation Guide SL7000 RT
• Meters must be installed only by suitably-qualified personnel.
• Ensure that the meter supply cabling is isolated from the mains supply, and that the
isolation cannot be overridden by another person.
• Following installation, ensure that the meter covers are correctly fitted and sealed to
prevent user access.
DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
The SL7000 RT meter is designed for live installation on isolated primary conductors or cables in
low voltage (not exceeding 500V).
In case of installation on bare conductors or bars systems, an additional isolation of the conductors
or bars must be recovered at the location intended for the Rogowski loops prior of their installation.
9.2. Environmental
SL7000 RT meters are certified for indoor use only. Do not install meters outdoors unless they are housed in an
enclosure which can maintain the specified environmental requirements.

Communication wiring
Both RS232 and RS485 type communication ports use RJ45 connectors:
It is recommended that twisted and shielded cables are used for communication line wiring and that one end of
the cable shield should be connected to ground.

Installation of the Rogowski loops over the main power cable(s)
1.
1. The 3 Rogowski loops are marked by a colored
sleeve close to their junction block.
• Grey for phase 1 sensor
• Brown for phase 2 sensor
• Black for phase 3 sensor
It is key that the Rogowski sensors are installed
accordingly their corresponding phase otherwise the
measurement will be mixed up.
2. The junction block of the Rogowski loop bears a
direction arrow.
Make sure that the loop is installed in such a way
that :
Network
• The arrow is located at the inner side of the
loop (do not force thenatural curvature of
the lop in the opposite way)
Colored
sleeve
Load
• The arrow points towards the LOAD side
It is key that the direction of the Rogowski sensors is
correct, otherwise the measurement will be reversed
(import for export and vice-versa).
3. General recommendations
• When securing the loop part against the main conductor or cable, a moderate pressure is sufficient
thanks to the light weight of the sensor, do not flatten the loop part
• As far as possible, keep the loop part away from adjacent conductors (the other phases for instance)

9.7. Battery
The meter is designed so the lithium battery can be safely installed or replaced while the meter is operating, as
follows:
1. If fitted, remove the seal from the battery holder securing screw.
2. Undo the securing screw and carefully extract the battery holder from the meter housing.
3. The meter may be initially shipped with the battery cable in the disconnected position (1). If this is the case,
move and fit the cable connector into the moulded pillar, as shown (2).
The illustrations show a rear view of the battery holder.
4. If the battery is being replaced, slide the old one out from under the securing tab and exchange.
5. Ensure the battery connector is the correct way round, as shown above.
6. Replace the battery holder into the meter, ensuring the moulded plastic connector pillar is inserted into the
lower aperture.
7. Tighten front securing screw.
8. Using the meter support tool, clear any battery error indications/alarms and reset the battery expected life
time value.
9. Seal the meter, as necessary.
9.8. Installation checks
Before connecting the mains supply to the installed meter, carefully check that:
• the correct meter type with the right identification number has been installed for this client at this metering
point.
• all mains supply and auxiliary cables are connected to the correct terminals.
• all cable clamp screws are securely tightened.
• the battery has been correctly installed.

9.9. Start-up and functional checks
Take the following steps to check that the meter is functioning.
1. Connect the mains supply to the meter.
2. Check that the LCD display turns on and shows coherent displays.
Depending on the meter configuration, the LCD may move automatically through a sequence of displays, or
it may be necessary to use the meter display pushbutton to move through the sequence.
3. Check that the meter is in the start mode (STOP is not displayed).
4. Check the phase sequence is correct; the quadrant indicator icons in the LCD should not be flashing.
5. Apply a load to the meter and check that the metrology LED (active - kWh) starts to flash.
The flash rate is proportional to the load.
6. Using the IR port, connect a support tool enabled PC to the meter and:
• read the Total Energy Registers (TER) values
• read all instantaneous values
• read the meter status values and its configuration
• erase any non-fatal alarms
7. Carry out the LCD test and confirm all the display segments and annunciator icons are lit.
8. Wait for approx 15 minutes while the meter operates.
9. Check the TER values have incremented from their initial values.
10. Check the maximum demand value is consistent with the applied load.
11. Re-check meter status.
9.10. Metrology parameters settings
With the ACE Pilot support tool, open the meter configuration
1. Make surre that the General Ressources are set for a SL7000 with: Meter Type SL761, FW Version 9.xx and
Meter connection Transformer
2. Make sure that the Metrology Connection parameters are set to a CT ratio 250/1 and a VT ratio 1/1
3. Make sure that the Metrology/Network parameters are set to 12 A Max Current
The Maximum Usual current may be set to a lower value depending on the application.
4. Use the Toolbox functions to verify all aspects of meter operation.
5. Save and print the results as evidence of correct operation.
