1.0 INTRODUCTION
The E-Mon D-Mon® Class 5000 meter is a 3-phase meter with communications. The
device is used to monitor electric power usage of individual loads after the utility meter
and store kW and kVAR data for automatic meter reading. The Class 5000 meter is
dual protocol capable and provides both RS485 and Ethernet communications.
Installation must only be performed by qualified personnel and in accordance with
these instructions and all applicable local and national electrical codes. E-Mon and its

Verify the input voltage rating and configuration on the unit panel label to ensure that it
is suitable for the intended electrical service. Class 5000 meters labeled for 120/208V
service MUST NOT be installed on service feeds of 277/480 volts or 347/600 and vice
versa. Verify that the Class 5000 meter’s current sensors are sized suitably for the load
to be monitored. Compare the color of the arrows on the current sensors to the chart
below to confirm the correct current sensor is being used.
