6. Setup and Installation
The Quick Sense QS-EM02 is designed for DIN rail mounting. Ensure all power is disconnected before proceeding with installation.
- Mounting: Securely attach the meter to a standard DIN rail using the provided mounting clips.
- Power Connection: Connect the main AC power supply (50-300V AC) to the designated terminals on the meter. Refer to the wiring diagram in the included instruction guide for correct polarity and connections.
- Current Sensor Installation:
- Identify the load wire (live wire) for which you want to measure current.
- Open the external current sensor (CT clamp).
- Pass the load wire through the center of the CT clamp. Ensure only one wire passes through the clamp.
- Securely close the CT clamp until it clicks into place.
- Connect the CT clamp's output wires to the corresponding input terminals on the QS-EM02 meter. Observe polarity if indicated.
- Verify Connections: Double-check all wiring connections for tightness and correctness to prevent electrical hazards and ensure accurate readings.
- Power On: Once all connections are verified, restore power to the circuit. The meter's LCD display should illuminate and begin showing readings.
