Current /Watt, Power factor.
Middle Panel: The central part displays the consumed
energies, the total costs and the institution of energy price.
BottomPanel: The bottom part displays the accumulated
usage duration of an apparatus.
Installation Of Batteries
The energy meter SK410 has been equipped with 2 LR44 1.5V batteries which insure that
your program remains kept in case of a current discontinuance occur (during 30 days).To
reduce discharge of the batteries, they are insulated by a cordon.
Before taking the apparatus in use you should pull out the battery compartment in the back
and remove the cordon. Then you can go further with setting your SK410. If the apparatus
is not used for a long time (+1 month), the batteries should be removed for conservation. If
you want to replace the batteries, you must firstly unsheathe the apparatus from mains
supply.
Overview Of Different Measuring Forms
Upper Part
To descend the different modes of the upper part of screen, you should press the UP key.
The overview offered below gives examples of the window and function of each mode.

Overview Of Different Forms Of Electricity Measuring
Central Part
Press ↓DOWN key for this part. The overview offered below gives examples of the
window and function of each mode.
Sequence In Screen
KWh →Total costs →Price
Bottom Part
This part displays the accumulated time that an apparatus has been employed in sum.
It is available in form of Hour/Minute/Seconds or Hour/Minute.
When the total usage duration reaches 99:59: 59, the screen will proceed
automatically in hour/minute mode.
The maximum is 9999:59 (10000hour).
The counting happens with seconds as long as the accumulated time totally smaller
than 100 hours. Afterwards, minutes become the smallest units of time.
The apparatus must be used under voltage to stand and work so that the SK410
functioning time would be counted.
If the used apparatus consumes too little current (less than 0.04A), no data will
appear on the screen (indication=0.00A), and the functioning time will not be counted.
Energy Indicator
Press the ↑UP key for windows of following values: the voltage, the current, the maximum
current, wattage, maximum wattage, the introduced value for overload, and the power
factor. These values are always shown in the upper part of the LCD screen.
1. Window Of Voltage(V)
The voltage is shown in V in the upper part
2. Window Of Current(A)
The current is shown in Ain this mode.
3. Window Of Maximum Current
The maximum current is shown in this mode. This value is preserved to the highest
one of those were detected.
4. Window Of Wattage(W)
The wattage is shown in the upper part in this mode. The calculation of used energy
in Watt is generated by multiplying the voltage, the current and the energy factor
(energy=voltage ×current).
5. Window Of Maximum Wattage
The maximum consumed energy is shown in this mode. This value remains visible till
it is exceeded.
6. Power Factor (Cos Phi)
The power factor thus gives the phase displacement angle and thus the ratio of
effective output to apparent power.
Erase The Data Of Maximum Current And Maximum Wattage
Press the ↑UP key and OVERLOAD key at the same time to erase the data of maximum
current and maximum wattage.

4. Press the OVERLOAD key again, 4 digits appear of which the first digit blink.
5. Use the ↑UP or ↓DOWN key to set the value of the first digit.
6. Press the OVERLOAD key repeatedly to select the following digit. And further this
way.
7. After all digits have been set this way, press the OVERLOAD key again to conclude.
If no key has been pushed for approximately 1 minute absolutely, the process will be
ended automatically.
Note:
This energy meter do not protect against overpressure.
Energy Consumption And Costs
A. Window Of Totally Consumed Energy In KWh
The totally accumulated energy usage of the apparatus has been shown since the
beginning of measuring in KWh.
B. Window Of Total Usage Duration
a) Here one sees the total time of energy usage of the connected apparatus. When
the costs continuously increase to exceed 999.999 $ that there is no more place
for decimal place, the costs will be shown in 9999.99 $.The total costs has been
based on the price which was introduced in the Price/KWh mode.
b) The total time that the meter runs is shown in hours/minutes/seconds mode in
the bottom part of the LCD screen. The counting happens in seconds as long as
the 100 hours are not exceeded. It proceeds in minutes afterwards. Both the
energy meter and the connected apparatus must be in working order so that the
functioning time could be counted. If the apparatus consumes too little current
(<0.04A), any data and the duration being measured will not be indicated
(0.00A).
C. Price/KWh mode
The price per KWh is set and shown in this mode. The tariff which is set here
stipulates the “costs of consumed energy”. Pass through the following steps to set the
price of energy.
1. Press the PRICE key to blink the first digit.
2. Press the ↑UP or ↓DOWN key to set the first digit.
3. Press the PRICE key to let the second digit blink.
4. Press the ↑UP or ↓DOWN key to set the second digit.
5. Repeat step 3 and step 4 to set the third, fourth, fifth and sixth digit.
6. Press the PRICE key again to conclude.
7. The range of the price goes between 0.001 KWh and 9999.99KWh.
Press the ↓DOWN and PRICE key at the same time to erase the total costs and the total
usage duration for the KWh recording.
