Installation Considerations
Installation and maintenance of the 9300 Series meter should only be performed by
qualified, competent personnel that have appropriate training and experience
with high voltage and current devices. The meter must be installed in accordance
with all Local and National Electrical Codes.
DANGER
Failure to observe the following instructions may result in severe injury or death.
During normal operation of the 9300 Series meter, hazardous voltages are
present on its terminal strips, and throughout the connected potential
transformer (PT), current transformer (CT), digital (status) input, control power
and external I/O circuits. PT and CT secondary circuits are capable of generating
lethal voltages and currents with their primary circuit energized. Follow
standard safety precautions while performing any installation or service work
(i.e. removing PT fuses, shorting CT secondaries, etc).
The terminal strips on the meter base should not be user-accessible after
installation.
Do not use digital output devices for primary protection functions. These
include applications where the devices perform energy limiting functions or
provide protection of people from injury. Do not use the 9300 Series in
situations where failure of the devices can cause injury or death, or cause
sufficient energy to be released that can start a fire. The meter can be used for
secondary protection functions.
Do not HIPOT/Dielectric test the digital (status) inputs, digital outputs, or
communications terminals. Refer to the label on the 9300 Series meter for the
maximum voltage level the device can withstand.
CAUTION
Observe the following instructions, or permanent damage to the meter may occur.
The 9300 Series meter offers a range of hardware options that affect input
ratings. The 9300 Series meter’s serial number label lists all equipped options.
Applying current levels incompatible with the current inputs will permanently
damage the meter. This document provides installation instructions applicable
to each hardware option.
The 9300 Series meter’s chassis ground must be properly connected to the
switchgear earth ground for the noise and surge protection circuitry to function
correctly. Failure to do so will void the warranty.
Terminal screw torque: Barrier-type (current, voltage, and relay terminal screws:
1.35 Nm (1.00 ft-lbf) max. Captured-wire type (digital inputs/outputs,
communications, power supply: 0.90 Nm (0.66 ft.lbf) max.

Profibus Comm Menu (9300)
In addition to the existing communications ports available on the 9300 meter, the
9300-Profibus option is equipped with a Profibus port capable of operating at baud
rates up to 12 Mbps. You must configure the 9300-Profibus before the meter can
provide power system data to the Profibus network.
The Comm 4 Profibus Communications module has one setting: PB Address. The
default value of this register is 126. Use the front panel to configure this setting to
a unique PB Address on your Profibus network.
