Although the unit is protected against electromagnetic disturbance, excessive
disturbance can affect the operation, measurement precision and data communication
quality.
ALWAYS remove plug connectors when inserting wires with a screwdriver.
Fuses must be connected to the power supply and phase voltage inputs, in
close proximity of the unit.
Fuses must be of fast type (FF) with a maximum rating of 6A.
Use cables of appropriate temperature range.
Use adequate cable section, at least 0.75mm2 (AWG18).
Follow national rules for electrical installation.
Current transformers must have 5A output.
For current transformer inputs, use at least 1.5mm2section (AWG15) cable.
The current transformer cable length should not exceed 1.5 meters. If
longer cable is used, increase the cable section proportionally.
For the correct operation of the exerciser and
weekly schedule programs, adjust the real time
clock of the unit through programming menu.
The engine body must be grounded. Otherwise faulty
voltage and frequency measurements may occur.
Current Transformers must be used for current
measurement.
No direct connection allowed.
Do not install the unit close to high electromagnetic
noise emitting devices like contactors, high current
busbars, switchmode power supplies and the like.

SELECTING THE CT RATING AND CABLE SECTION:
The load on a CT should be kept
minimum in order to minimize phase shift
effect of the current transformer. Phase
shift in a CT will cause erroneous power
and power factor readings, although amp
readings are correct.
Datakom advises CT rating to be selected
following this table for the best
measurement accuracy.
SELECTING THE CT ACCURACY CLASS:
The CT accuracy class should be selected in accordance with the required measurement precision. The
accuracy class of the Datakom controller is 0.5%. Thus 0.5% class CTs are advised for the best result.
3.3. AC CURRENT INPUTS

D-500 User Manual Rev_06 Firmware V-5.8
K35D05-EN - 20 -
CONNECTING CTs:
Be sure of connecting each CT to the related phase input with the correct polarity. Mixing CTs between
phases will cause faulty power and pf readings.
Many combinations of incorrect CTs connections are possible, so check both order of CTs and their
polarity. Reactive power measurement is affected by incorrect CTs connection in similar way as active
power measurement.
CORRECT CT CONNECTIONS
Let’s suppose that the genset is loaded with 100 kW on each phase. The load Power Factor (PF) is 1.
