4. After the wire connections are completed, install a cable tie to the meter cable just below the
exposed colored lead wires on the cable insulation.
5. Remove the excess cable tie using a hand-held
side-cutter pliers. The cable tie performs as a cable
strain relief to mitigate the risk of destructive tension
on the lead wires.
6. Tuck the three gel connectors and cable tie inside the module housing, as shown in the following
placement illustration and schematic.
7. Install the remote ERT module backplate using the four screws previously removed from the module
and a Torx T-10 screwdriver.
Important: Verify that the cable tie and gel connectors are inside the module housing and the cable
extends out of the slot in the backplate. Torque the backplate mounting screws to 9 to 12 inch-pounds.
8. Install the module on the wall or a pipe using the pipe installation kit (Itron part number CFG-0005-
003) or install the module on the Romet AdEM meter using the Romet ERT mounting bracket (Romet
part number 46-444-2).
