3.3 Preparation
1. Verify the model number and electrical specifications of the device being installed
to confirm they are appropriate for the intended electrical service (see Section 2).
2. Consult local codes for any possible permits or inspections required before
beginning electrical work.
3. Ensure the conduit for the installation is flexible and non-metallic. For outdoor
applications conduit and conduit fittings must be rated for UL Type 4x outdoor
enclosures. Failure to use the appropriate conduit impairs the degree of equipment
protection.
4. Make sure all tools to be used during installation have proper insulation ratings.
5. Look at the Meter and inside the electrical panel for possible exposed wire, broken
wire, damaged components or loose connections.
3.4 List of Materials
Mini Meter or Epoxy Encapsulated Module small enclosure and associated mounting
material.
Line 1, Line 2, and Neutral hook-up wires as needed for the electrical service.
Wires must be 18 AWG or larger and insulated for 300 VAC min.
Current Transformers (CTs): This product is designed for use with Leviton CTs
Flexible, non-metallic conduit and fittings; UL Type 4X for outdoor applications.
3.5 Mounting the Enclosure
3.5.1 Selecting a Mounting Location
Meter installations require a switch or circuit breaker as part of the building
installation.
The switch or circuit breaker must be marked as the disconnecting device for
the meter.
It is recommended that the enclosure be mounted near the disconnecting
device in an area with adequate ventilation.
The enclosure should not be positioned in a manner that makes it difficult to
operate the disconnecting device.
Ensure that the CT and voltage lead lengths (and conduit lengths) are capable
of reaching the enclosure from the load center.
If a suitable mounting location near the load center cannot be found, additional
in-line fuses or circuit breaker may be required in accordance with NEC regulations.
