3.6 Installation of Voltage Lines
1. Field wired voltage connections are made to the Mini Meter terminal block. The rated
torque for these terminal blocks is 4.4 in-lb, and can be used with solid and stranded
copper wires, at 12-18 AWG.
2. Verify that branch circuit fuse specifications meet local electric codes.
3. Connect 18 AWG min., 300 V min. insulated wiring for Line voltages and Neutral to
the appropriate locations in the breaker panel, in accordance with all national and local
electrical codes; see Figure 9 for wiring diagram.
4. Route wires through the conduit if not already done.
5. Trim the wire to the appropriate length to avoid coils of excess wiring.
6. Strip wiring to approximately .300 inches if needed and connect to the appropriate
terminals. Wires should be tightened so that they are held snuggly in place, but do not to
over-tighten, as this may compress and weaken the conductor.
3.7 Installation of Current Transformers
To reduce risk of electric shock, always open or disconnect
the circuit from the power distribution system of a building
before installing or servicing current transformers.
In accordance with NEC, CTs may not be installed in any panel
board where they exceed 75% of the wiring space of any cross-
sectional area.
