in the primary channel, the CE code allows scaling between the two channels so that all energy calculations can
be based on IMAX.
2.1.3 SINGLE-PHASE THREE-WIRE (EQU 1)
This meter configuration (see Figure 2-4) is used in North America (ANSI market) and parts of South America.
The energy measurement is based on the following equation:
P = VA/2 * (IA – IB)
Both current sensors can be shunt sensors. The second current sensor may also be a CT. The Demo Board
has provisions for connecting either sensor type, but the default configuration for the second current sensor is
the connection via on-board 71M6X0X Remote Sensor Interface.

By default, the gain of the amplifier for the IAP/IAN inputs is set to 1. See the explanation below Table 1-8 for
the calculation of
IMAX.
As for the single-phase two-wire configuration, the CE code allows for scaling of differences between the cur-
rents in both phases so that all energy calculations can be based on
IMAX.
