3. Install CTs for Metering

NOTES:
When wiring the IQ Envoy for production and consumption metering, be sure to install
the current transformers (CTs) exactly as described for your application.
When installing CTs, it is important to match CT and sense voltage phases. Be sure to
consistently identify the two AC lines at three points: the main load center feed, the
Envoy, and the solar production circuit breaker. Wire colors (typically black and red) may
not always consistently identify L1 and L2. If in doubt, use a multimeter to check.
Do not install the CTs in a panel where they exceed 75% of the wiring space of any
cross-sectional area within the panel, or refer to local standards for guidance.
Only run active conductors through the CT. The CT can monitor multiple active
conductors. You may run more than one wire through the CT if all wires are on the same
phase and they fit the opening in the CT.
Use the following diagram as a reference while installing the CTs:
