Quick Start Guide
(For use with model numbers S8120 and S8UWH)
For the full listing of tools and equipment required for the complete installation of this product, please refer to the manual for
details.
Ensure the installation is completed per NEC guidelines as well as local codes. A disconnect must be provided (such as a
breaker from the panel) that will allow shut off of power to the meter for servicing.
The system digram is intended to show the various electrical connections required for the Leviton Series 8000 multi-circuit meter.
Indicated in the diagram are the names of the specific components of the meter which will be referred to later in this guide. Follow
the installation steps below for the appropriate wiring information depending on the product model and panel service type.

Wiring Reference Voltage and Meter Power
For 120/208/240VAC services:
For 277/480VAC wye services:
Verify that the meter has the appropriately installed
terminal block in place shown here:
A transformer is included with the meter for powering
the device. Make sure the connections from the
secondary side of the transformer and the plug J2
below are made correctly:
Utilize the correct column below for the type of service being monitored.
Please note that 347/600V and 480V delta services require external PTs to step down the voltages before being wired to the meter.
If none of the examples below match the form of service in the panel, please refer to the full manual for additional types.
Voltage references to the meter should be connected to a circuit breaker in the panel and/or with appropriate fusing based
on the NEC and any local codes that are applicable.
Now use the appropriate diagram on the following page for attaching the voltage references depending on the panel feed.

Installing Current Transformers to Monitor the Loads
Correct installation of CT orientation on conductor from panel to load. This is an example of a three-phase
installation.
Example of a split core CT. Orientation is based on the product
label indicating which side should face the source.
Example of a solid core CT. Orientation is based on the product
label indicating which side should face the source.
Use the appropriate diagram below to identify the correct orientation of the CT to the conductor. The “source” refers to the side
facing incoming power from the utility.

Installing the CT Wire Harness & Connecting CT Secondary Wires
Wire harness AMP plug inserted into socket
Example of a three phase (element) installation with the first three loads wired in the correct order based on the
cross-reference list above. The CT wires are always white (X1) and black (X2), and must be appropriately associated
with the correct colored pair from the harness.
Install the wire harness AMP connector to the board.
Depending on the Series 8000 model purchased, the harness has a varying number of twisted pairs that are to be matched with the
corresponding CTs from the panel. Please refer to the spreadsheet on the last page of the quick start guide which cross lists the
twisted-pair wiring colors to the input number of the meter. Make sure to correctly associate each twisted pair wire to the correct
CT in the electrical panel.
Important! Fill out the spreadsheet with the appropriate CT amperage ratings and tenant information (circuit/apt/unit #) associated
with each of the CTs. This is provided on the last page of the quick start guide.
Once the tenant spreadsheet has been filled out and completed, the last steps are to configure the meter through software and
verify the hardware installation is correct. The manual includes the necessary information to complete the commissioning of the
Leviton Series 8000 multi-circuit meter.
