• See “Specifications” on page 27 for voltage and current input limits.
You can connect the meter’s voltage inputs directly to the phase voltage lines of the
power system if the power system’s line-to-line or line-to-neutral voltages do not
exceed the meter’s direct connect maximum voltage limits. The meter's voltage
measurement inputs are rated by the manufacturer for up to 400 V L-N / 690 V L-L.
However, the maximum voltage allowed for direct connection may be lower, depending
on the local electrical codes and regulations. In US and Canada the maximum voltage
on the meter voltage measurement inputs may not exceed 347 V L-N / 600 V L-L.
If your system voltage is greater than the specified direct connect maximum voltage,
you must use VTs (voltage transformers) to step down the voltages.

Voltage input protection
The meter’s voltage inputs must be wired to fuses/breakers and a disconnect switch. If
using a voltage transformer (VT), both primary and secondary sides of the VT must be
wired to fuses/breakers and disconnect switches.
• Clearly label the device’s disconnect circuit mechanism and install it within easy
reach of the operator.
• The fuses / circuit breakers must be rated for the installation voltage and sized for
the available fault current.
• Fuse for neutral terminal is required if the source neutral connection is not
grounded.
See the meter installation sheet for fuse ratings.
Current input protection
For all connected current inputs, use a CT shorting block to short-circuit the secondary
leads of the CTs before removing the current input connections to the meter.
NOTE: Ground any unused current inputs.
Balanced system considerations
In situations where you are monitoring a balanced 3-phase load, you may choose to
connect only one or two CTs on the phase(s) you want to measure, and then configure
the meter so it calculates the current on the unconnected current input(s).
NOTE: For a balanced 4-wire Wye system, the meter’s calculations assume that there
is no current flowing through the neutral conductor.
22 HRB1684301-01
PowerLogic™ PM5500 series user manual Chapter 2—Hardware reference
Balanced 3-phase Wye system with 2 CTs
The current for the unconnected current input is calculated so that the vector sum for all
three phase currents equal zero.
Balanced 3-phase Wye or Delta system with 1 CT
The currents for the unconnected current inputs are calculated so that their magnitude
and phase angle are identical and equally distributed, and the vector sum for all three
phase currents equal zero.
NOTE: You must always use 3 CTs for 3-phase 4-wire center-tapped Delta or
center-tapped open Delta systems.
Neutral and ground current
The fourth current input (I4) can be used to measure current flow (In) in the neutral
conductor, which can then be used to calculate residual current. The meter refers to
residual current as ground current (Ig).
For 4-wire Wye systems, ground current is calculated as the difference between the
measured neutral current and the vector sum of all measured phase currents.
Control power wiring
Communications
Serial communications
For wiring instructions and safety precautions, see the meter installation sheet that was
shipped with your meter, or download a copy at www.schneider-electric.com.
The meter can be powered from an AC or DC power source.
• L1 and L2 are non-polarized. If using an AC power supply with neutral, connect
neutral to the meter’s L2 terminal.
• Always use a fuse on L1. Fuse L2 when connecting an ungrounded neutral to the
control power.
• If using a control power transformer, fuse both primary and secondary sides of the
transformer.
• The fuses / circuit breakers must be rated for the installation voltage and sized for
the available fault current.
This section provides additional information about the communications ports and
topologies supported by the meter. You must wire and configure the RS-485 port and/or
the Ethernet port in order to communicate with the meter.
The meter supports serial communications through the RS-485 port. Up to 32 devices
can be connected on a single RS-485 bus.
In an RS-485 network, there is one master device, typically an Ethernet to RS-485
gateway. It provides the means for RS-485 communications with multiple slave devices
(for example, meters). For applications that require only one dedicated computer to
communicate with the slave devices, an RS-232 to RS-485 converter can be used as
the master device.

terminal on the devices that do not have the C terminal.
RS-485 maximum cable length
The total distance for devices connected on an RS-485 bus should not exceed 1200 m
(4000 ft).
RS-485 network configuration
After you have wired the RS-485 port and powered up the meter, you must configure
the serial communications port in order to communicate with the meter.
Each device on the same RS-485 communications bus must have a unique address
and all connected devices must be set to the same protocol, baud rate, and parity (data
format).
NOTE: To communicate with the meter using ION Setup, you must set the serial site
and all connected devices in the RS-485 network to the same parity setting.
For meters that do not have a display, you must first wire and configure each one
separately before connecting these meters to the same RS-485 bus.

Ethernet communications
The meter supports Modbus TCP, HTTP and FTP protocols and can communicate at
data speeds up to 100 Mbps through its Ethernet communications port.
The meter supports a single IP address between two 10/100Base-T Ethernet ports. The
second Ethernet port functions as an Ethernet switch, which allows you to have shorter
Ethernet cable runs between the meters without requiring additional Ethernet routers or
repeaters. This helps simplify network connections and reduce installation time and
costs.
Use a Cat 5 cable to connect the meter’s Ethernet port. Your Ethernet connection
source should be installed in a location that minimizes the overall Ethernet cable routing
length.

The meter is equipped with two Form A digital output ports (D1, D2). You can configure
the digital outputs for use in the following applications:
• switching applications, for example, to provide on/off control signals for switching
capacitor banks, generators, and other external devices and equipment
• demand synchronization applications, where the meter provides pulse signals to the
input of another meter to control its demand period
• energy pulsing applications, where a receiving device determines energy usage by
counting the kWh pulses coming from the meter’s digital output port
HRB1684301-01 25
The digital outputs can handle voltages less than 30 V AC or 60 V DC (125 mA
maximum). For higher voltage applications, use an external relay in the switching
circuit.

The meter is equipped with four digital input ports (S1 to S4). You can configure the
digital inputs for use in status monitoring or input metering applications.
The meter’s digital inputs require an external voltage source to detect the digital input’s
on/off state. The meter detects an on state if the external voltage appearing at the
digital input is within its operating range.
The digital inputs require a 18 - 30 V AC or 12 - 30 V DC external voltage source to
detect the digital input’s on/off state.
