Packet Power™ Wireless Current Monitoring Module Manual

4. The CT must meet all local and national safety requirements relevant to the

installation, including but not limited to maximum voltage and any other relevant

mechanical requirements.

5. The output of the CT must be compatible with the CMM and the CMM Interface

Board.

6. The CMM has to be configured for the correct CT type and model (it is not auto

ranging).

7. Using the wrong C/T can result in damage to the CMM and the CMM Interface Board

and inaccurate measurement readings.

8. Solid core and split core CTs are available but cannot be interchanged.

9. Always select a CT that is close as possible to your desired maximum range to

obtain the highest possible accuracy.

10. Note that C/T’s may provide less accurate readings at loads under 5-10% of

their maximum rated current.

Examples of C/T’s and their associated current range are shown below.

Note: You must ensure the current transformer(s) you have selected is approved by

Packet Power and matched correctly to maximum rated load of the conductor on

which it will be used. You are responsible for understanding how to correctly select

and use the appropriate current transformers for the type of power you wish to

monitor. Failure to correctly size and install the current transformers could result in

product failure and hazardous operating conditions.
