Installing the Current Transformers

The three models of PowerLogic EM4800 meter use current transformers

 

(CTs) with different secondary outputs. The PowerLogic EM4833 meter uses

 

split-core 0.333V CTs (see Figure 12), and the PowerLogic EM4880 meter

 

uses 80mA CTs only (see Figure 13) and is typically used where accuracy is

 

important and long secondary CT wiring is required (up to 300 feet [91.44

 

meters]). The PowerLogic EM4880 meter can also use a 5A CT if a 5A

 

converter has first been installed.

 

For instructions, see “Installing the CTs on the PowerLogic EM4833 and

 

PowerLogic EM4880” on page 22, and “Installing 5A Converters and CTs on

 

the PowerLogic EM4880” on page 23.

 

The PowerLogic EM4805 uses 5A secondary CTs. For instructions, see

 

“Installing the 5A CTs on the PowerLogic EM4805” on page 27.

 

Current transformers connect to the PowerLogic EM4833 and PowerLogic

 

EM4880 meters through the 50-conductor CT cable provided with the meter.

 

Table 2 describes the CT wire pairs and the cable color scheme for each

 

meter point. You can also find this information on the inside of the meter’s

 

outer cover.

 

Each CT has an X1 (positive) and X2 (neutral) wire pair and uses butt-splice

 

connectors to attach the CT to a specific meter wire pair. The direction of the

 

energy flow is indicated on the CT.
