INSTALLATION PACKAGE INSPECTION 1. Verify the ConnectDER is undamaged shipping. 2. Verify the ConnectDER is configured with the proper line or load-side interconnection. 3. Verify the ConnectDER is equipped with the proper circuit breaker for the application. 4. Verify the screws for the junction box base are furnished. 5. Verify the screws for the junction box cover are furnished. Verify the neutral pigtail (copper wire w/white insulation) is furnished.
ITEMS REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION i NOTE The following tools are needed to install the ConnectDER: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. A torque wrench and/or torque screwdriver to cover a range from 2 to 50 in/lbs. A #2 Philips screwdriver bit for use with torque wrench/screwdriver. A ¼” flat screwdriver bit for use with the torque wrench/screwdriver. A pair of wire cutters. A wire stripper. Suitable metering equipment such as a digital volt-ohmmeter.
REMOVE THE METER AND METER SOCKET COVER WARNING Contact the utility for specific information on their standard practices and/or to schedule a visit by utility or utility-authorized personnel to remove the meter. FIGURE 5 Remove the utility tamper-prevention seal(s). 1. Remove the locking ring (for ring-type meter sockets). 2. Remove the electric meter as shown in FIGURE 5. 3. Inspect the meter socket terminals for damage such as loose or broken wires, damaged jaws, etc.
INSTALL THE NEUTRAL LEAD 4-JAW METER SOCKET WARNING All 4-jaw meter sockets require a neutral conductor pigtail to be attached from the rear of the ConnectDER to a neutral point inside of the meter socket. Before beginning, make sure that the ConnectDER circuit breaker is open (OFF). FIGURE 6 below depicts the inside of a typical 4 jaw meter socket. This model has a single accessory position, circled in red. Many sockets have a second accessory position, depicted below as a blue dot.
Possible options for connecting the neutral pigtail to the meter socket, in case there is no spare terminal as shown in FIGURE 6 (previous page): Connect the end of the neutral wire pigtail lead to the load side grounded neutral conductor. Use a suitable Listed pressure connector such as a gutter tap, split bolt connector, or parallel groove clamp. More detail about each is provided below.
FIGURE 8 depicts a “Split-Bolt Connector” or “Split-Bolt Bug”. Multiple manufacturers offer equivalent products. 1 2 FIGURE 8 3 1. “Main” or “run” conductor, referring to the existing load side service entrance neutral conductor within the meter socket. Often there is no need to disconnect the existing wire provided there is enough slack to manipulate the conductor. 2. Tap conductor, in this case the ConnectDER neutral pigtail would be terminated here. 3.
FIGURE 9 depicts a “Parallel Groove Clamp” or “Parallel Groove Connector”. Multiple manufacturers offer equivalent products. 1 FIGURE 9 2 1. One side of the clamp may be larger for the “main” or “run” conductor, referring to the existing load side service entrance neutral conductor within the meter socket. Often there is no need to disconnect the existing wire provided there is enough slack to manipulate the conductor. 2.
WARNING The approaches to ground and neutral connections have numerous variables. The connection method can vary based on utility and authority having jurisdiction requirements, accessory components chosen, meter socket type, and overall system configuration. Coordinate with your utility and authority having jurisdiction to establish acceptable methods in cases where methods recommended below cannot be employed.
For ring-type meters, reinstall the meter cover while routing the neutral lead through the cover opening. Bend the other end of the neutral lead 90 degrees before terminating it at the ConnectDER. This will help it avoid contact with non-insulated live parts when inserting the ConnectDER into the meter socket. See FIGURE 11.
Terminate the neutral lead to the ConnectDER using a screwdriver as shown below in FIGURE 12. Torque the connection to the values shown in TABLE 2 below. (NOTE: Ringless type meter socket shown below). FIGURE 12 TABLE 2 NEUTRAL PIGTAIL WIRING TORQUE VALUES Wire size (AWG) Torque value 14-12 15 in/lbs. 2-4 50 in/lbs. 10-6 40 in/lbs.
5-JAW METER SOCKET WARNING Some PV inverter manufacturers specify a full-sized neutral conductor (i.e. the same size as the line conductors) as part of the inverter output wiring. The 5th jaw inside a form 12S meter socket may have only nominal ampacity, intended to be sufficient for the utility meter to calculate kW usage on 120/208v systems.
PLACE THE CONNECTDER IN THE METER SOCKET 1. Confirm the ConnectDER circuit breaker is in the open (OFF) position. 2. Be certain to install the ConnectDER in the proper orientation. The field wiring terminals are at the top of the device and the circuit breaker is at the bottom. 3. Insert the ConnectDER into the meter socket ensuring any wire or added terminations are prevented from contacting non-insulated live parts within the existing meter socket as shown in FIGURE 13. 4.
1. There is limited clearance to slide a ringless cover over both the breaker switch and terminal pocket. 2. Once the device is set in the meter socket, slip the cover on. 3. Slowly work the cover over both the breaker switch and terminal pocket, taking care not to gouge or damage them. To clear the breaker switch, it may be necessary to tip the ConnectDER DOWN, and angle the top edge of the meter socket cover towards the meter socket. 4.
RE-INSTALL THE METER 1. For ring-type sockets, install a locking ring to secure the ConnectDER to the meter socket cover. (Ringless cover shown in FIGURE 15). 2. Install a lock ring and tamper-prevention seal to secure the utility billing meter to the ConnectDER. 3. Install a tamper-prevention seal in the latch to secure the meter socket cover.
CHECK THE CIRCUIT BREAKER AND COVER 1. Confirm the circuit breaker is in the OFF position as shown in FIGURE 16. FIGURE 16 2. Confirm the cover is aligned properly and securely shut as shown in FIGURE 17. FIGURE 17 3. Install a lockout device until the ConnectDER field wiring is terminated.
INSTALL THE JUNCTION BOX AND CONNECT THE RACEWAY i NOTE If the raceway will be attached at a later time, install the junction box according to steps 4 and 5, then install the junction box cover as directed in step 4, “TERMINATE THE FIELD WIRING”). The junction box may remain in place when installing the raceway. 1. Drill the conduit hole for the power raceway as shown in FIGURE 18. The conduit entry be used on either side of the junction box.
3. Install a Listed wet location-rated raceway connector. 4. Confirm the field wiring terminals are de-energized using an appropriate meter. 5. Install the junction box to the top of the ConnectDER™ unit using the Philips screws furnished with the unit. Tighten the screws to 5 in/lbs. using a #2 Philips bit. Make sure the seal is fully compressed and the box makes contact with the body of the terminal pocket. See FIGURE 19. FIGURE 19 i NOTE USE A TORQUE DRIVER TO TIGHTEN THE SCREWS TO 5 IN/LBS.
6. Attach the field wiring raceway approved by the AHJ and the utility. 7. Provide some extra length of raceway when using flexible liquidtight conduit. This allows easier access to the inside of the meter socket in the future. 8. Use 90-degree connectors on the ends of the raceway where practical. Strap the raceway securely to the mounting surface as shown in FIGURE 20 to minimize inadvertent or intentional contact with the raceway.
TERMINATE THE FIELD WIRING 1. Verify the wiring is clear of faults using suitable metering equipment. 2. Pull the wiring into the junction box. 3. Connect the field wiring to the terminals as shown in FIGURE 21 and tighten to the values shown in TABLE 3 below. FIGURE 21 TABLE 3 FIELD WIRING TORQUE VALUES Wire size (AWG) Torque value 14-10 35 in/lbs. 6-4 45 in/lbs. 8 40 in/lbs. 3 50 in/lbs. 4. Attach the junction box cover using the Philips screws provided.
PREPARE THE SYSTEM FOR PROVISIONING 1. Install one or more tamper-prevention seals on the junction box cover (optional, such as the green seal shown in FIGURE 22). 2. Confirm the PV or other DER system passed inspections by the AHJ and the utility where applicable. 3. Remove the lockout on the circuit breaker cover, open the cover and switch the breaker to the “ON” position. 4. Close the breaker cover using the thumbscrew. 5. Install tamper-prevention seal on the breaker cover (optional).
PROVISION THE SYSTEM USING “INSTALLER” CREDENTIALS 1. Verify that utility power is present. 2. Verify the ConnectDER circuit breaker is shut. The LCD will activate only when the circuit breaker is shut and power is applied. a. If the ConnectDER is installed upside down, the LCD displays “FLIPPEd” as shown in FIGURE 23. Provisioning may proceed only when the ConnectDER is properly installed. FIGURE 23 3.
