CHAPTER 2 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION 2.1 CONNECTING THE CURRENT CIRCUIT 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. CT SIZE (VA) MAXIMUM DIS

CHAPTER 3 COMMUNICATION INSTALLATION 3.1 RS-232C All EPM3000P and EPM300P-F instruments can be equipped with: the EIA RS-232C or the EIA RS-485. RS-232C communication links a single instrument with a computer or device such as an RTU or PLC. Its capability is up to 100 feet. A standard 9-pin female serial port connector mounts on the instrument for direct connection to a computer with a 9-pin cable. NOTE: ONLY THREE PINS ARE USED IN RS-232C. (See Figure 3.1).

CHAPTER 4 EPM3000P OVERVIEW The EPM3000P and EPM3000P-F measure 10 electrical parameters. Values for each parameter are accessed through the keypad on the meter's front panel (See Figure 4.1). The meters illustrated throughout the manual are EPM3000P except for Figure 4.1 below. The EPM3000P-F (Frequency Option) displays the Frequency measurement on the face of the meter. Max, Min and Limits indicators are on the left side of the face. VOLTS AMPS A-N A B-N B C-N C A-B N B-C C
