• Locate the main breaker panel that disconnects all power to the house. This enclosure is
usually located close to the meter.
If the main breaker panel enclosure or wiring or breakers show any sign of disrepair or
damage or you notice anything unusual about your electricity supply, such as
loose wires, exposed cabling, burn marks or holes in the insulating materials or damage
to your meter then stop immediately and consult a qualifi ed electrician.
• Open the main breaker panel enclosure.
• TURN OFF MAIN BREAKER
• Unscrew and carefully remove the protective cover. This will reveal all wires.
• Check to make sure that there is enough room to t the transmitter in the enclosure so that the protective
cover can be remounted. If there is not enough room seek installation help from a qualifi ed electrician.
• Place the transmitter as high in the enclosure as possible. A Velcro sticker is used to secure the transmitter
in place.
• Locate the two main incoming cables coming from the meter and feeding the main breakers in the panel.
They are usually the 2 thickest cables and are normally black or red. A third cable usually thinner and
marked with green or white labels is the ground and will not be used.
• Clamp one CT clamp around each main cable. Do not pull or bend the
power cables. Make sure that the clamps can move freely and that they
do not pinch or apply any undue pressure on the cables.
• Connect the clamp leads to the bottom of the transmitter and make sure
that the center input labeled #1 on the transmitter is always connected.
The second sensor to the left of the center input. The third input is reserved
for 3-phase installations.
• Check the display to ensure that it is reading the signal and that watts are being displayed.
• Re-attach the protective cover and close the panel.
