BEFORE YOU BEGIN
1. Advise the customer to turn off any sensitive electronic equipment including computers,
stereos, televisions, etc.
2. Tell the customer that the power will be off for approximately 5 10 minutes.
Note: For safety reasons, we recommend you attach a clear meter
socket cover with a meter ring to the front of the RT-2200 unit prior to
installation.

3. Remove the existing meter from the meter socket.
4. Inspect the “jaws” of the meter socket to ensure that they are in good working condition
(ie: the jaws should not be spread too far apart).

5. Perform a voltage check, a line-to-line check, and a line-to-neutral check to ensure the
voltage is at proper levels.
6. Visually inspect the back of the RT-2200 unit to ensure the power pins on the front and
back are secure and everything is in place.
