Mounting instructions
- This product must be mounted according to the mounting rules and preferably by a skilled electrician. Possible wrong mounting and/or misuses of the device may involve the risk of electric shock or fire.
- Before mounting, please carefully read the instructions and find a mounting place which fits its functions.Do not open, dismantle, tamper or modify this device except for the special mention reported in the manual.
- All the IME’s products must be opened and repaired only by personnel properly trained and authorized by IME.
- Any unauthorized opening or repair leads to the exclusion of every responsibility, rights to replacement and guarantees.
- Please make sure that the data on the label (measuring voltage, extra supply voltage, measuring current, frequency) correspond to the network on which the meter must be connected.
- In the wiring scrupulously respect the wiring diagram; an error in connection unavoidably leads to wrong measurements or damages to the device.
- When the meter is connected, conclude the mounting with the configuration as described in the user’s manual.

External VT and CT ratio
- a = External primary/secondary CT ratio (ex. CT BOO/SA Ct= 160)
- Vt =External primary/secondary VT ratio (ex. VT 600I100v Vt= 6)
- External CT ratio (Ct): 1 … 9999
- External VT ratio (Vt): 1,0 … 400,0
- Limit produced ratios CT x VT (Ct x Vt): 100000(CT/5A)-400000(CT/1A)
- For voltage direct connection (with external voltage transformer) load Vt=1,0
- By modifying the CT and/or VT ratios, the KWH meters are automatically reset
Phase sequence checking
- Pressing ENTER key (in any of the display pages) you can check the correct connection of the volumetric (phase sequence).
- If the connection is right, the display doesn’t change.
- If the connection is wrong, Err 123 is displayed. In the case you have to modify the volumetric connection and repeat the checking until you get the correct sequence.
ATTENTION!
A wrong phase sequence may leads to measuring errors.

Auxiliary Supply
- Terminals 20 and 21
- Auxiliary supply: direct or alternating current electrical supply which is necessary for proper working of the device.
- Please verify that the available supply voltage meets the one shown on the data label of the meter (voltage value and any frequency).
- Where a double voltage is shown (for instance 48Vac 120 … 1 sovdc) the meter can be fed with alternating voltage 48Vac or direct voltage 20 … 150Vdc.
- In case of direct voltage supply please respect the shown polarities 20+ and 21.
