The cable used for the current should be installed at 600V AC minimum. The cable connector should be rated at 6
Amps or greater, and it should have a cross-sectional area of 16 AWG.
The current transformers should be mounted as close as possible to the meter. The following table gives the
maximum recommended distances for various CT sizes, assuming the connection is made via 16 AWG cable.

For proper operation, the voltage connection must be maintained. If an error occurs, such as mistaking Line A for
Line B, a PH message appears, indicating a Phase Reversal (see Phase Imbalance and Reversal).
The cable required to terminate the voltage sense circuit should have an insulation rating greater than 600V AC and a
current rating greater than 0.1 A.

USES
We recommend using fuses, although connection diagrams do not show them. Slow blow, 200 mA rating fuses
should be used.
The maximum voltage EPM3000P can handle 150V phase to neutral. If Suffix -G is added to the model number, the
maximum voltage to be used is 300V phase to neutral.
