Setup and Installation
Follow these steps to correctly install your DROK Digital Volt Ammeter Panel:
- Prepare the Mounting Location: Ensure you have a suitable panel cutout for the meter. Refer to the dimensions image below for precise measurements.
- Wiring Connections: The meter is a 2-wire design and is powered by the circuit it measures. Connect the red and black wires from the meter to the AC input voltage lines.
- Current Transformer (CT) Connection: Connect the two green wires from the CT to the "CT" terminals on the meter.
- Current Measurement Setup: For current measurement, the wire carrying the load current must pass through the hole in the middle of the current transformer. Ensure only one wire passes through the CT for accurate readings.
- Secure the Device: Once wired, secure the meter into its panel cutout.

Calibration (Advanced Users Only)
The meter features a built-in trimmer potentiometer for calibration. If you suspect inaccurate readings, a qualified technician can adjust these potentiometers using a known accurate reference meter. The potentiometers are typically located on the back of the unit, labeled for voltage (V-Setting) and amperage (A-Setting) adjustments.
Maintenance
The DROK Digital Volt Ammeter Panel requires minimal maintenance.
- Keep the display clean using a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Periodically check all wiring connections to ensure they remain secure.
- Ensure the operating environment is free from excessive dust, moisture, and corrosive gases.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No display / Meter not turning on | No power to the meter; incorrect wiring. | Check voltage input connections. Ensure power is supplied to the circuit being measured. |
| Voltage reading is incorrect | Incorrect voltage input connection; meter requires calibration. | Verify voltage input wiring. If persistent, professional calibration may be needed. |
| Current reading is incorrect or zero | CT not connected; load wire not passing through CT; CT connected incorrectly; meter requires calibration. | Ensure CT wires are securely connected to the meter. Verify that only one load wire passes through the center of the CT. If persistent, professional calibration may be needed. |
| Display is flickering or unstable | Unstable power supply; loose connections. | Check power supply stability. Secure all wiring connections. |
