Packet Power™ Wireless Current Monitoring Module Manual

Installing the universal power supply.

The universal power supply will provide a 5 VDC source to the remote interface board when

an alternate 5 VDC source is not available. The power supply shall be wired to an AC

source and shall have a means of overcurrent protection and disconnect from the upstream

source.

The input range for the power supply is 90-264 VAC at 50 or 60 Hz.

The power supply can be secured inside most electrical cabinets using adhesive tabs or

fasteners with mounting holes on the power supply.

Always provide overcurrent protection on the line side (brown cable) of the AC input to the

power supply.

Note: You must ensure that all connections (“taps”) being made to the load-carrying

lines satisfy relevant safety codes and local regulations. You are responsible for

understanding how to perform this connection. Failure to correctly perform this

connection could result in product failure and hazardous operating conditions.

Choosing the correct current transformers

The CMM can operate with a variety of standard current transformers (CTs). Only CTs

approved by Packet Power can be used with the CMM.

1. The CT must be approved by Packet Power for use with the CMM

2. The CT must be compatible with the version of the Interface Board that will be used.

3. The CT must be sized correctly for the maximum current of the circuit being

measured.

Comment [SV2]: Should we indicate which line

should be fused?
