potential hazards and any actions which have to be taken to avoid them.
The meter installation procedure is described in this Installation and maintenance manual. For safety
reasons the following instructions should be followed.
See the complete User manual for detailed technical features of MT880 meter and its intended use.

V2.00 –English 3/40 1. SAFETY INFORMATION
MT880
Installation and maintenance manual
Only a properly connected meter can measure correctly! Every connection error could result in a
financial loss for the power company!
1.2.2. Meter installation procedure
DANGER: The MT880 electricity meter is a device connected into the electricity network. Any
unauthorized manipulation of the device is dangerous for life and prohibited according to the
applicable legislation. Any attempt to damage the seals as well as any unauthorized opening of the
terminal or meter cover is strictly forbidden.
Installation companies shall implement a training policy that ensures that all installers are adequately trained,
understand risk and safety issues and possess the relevant skills before they commence operational duties.
The installer will need to recognise and understand different metering installations, meter types and various
equipment associated with those installations applicable to the successful installation of the electricity meter.
The installer must consult and comply with local regulations and read the installation instructions
written in this Installation and maintenance manual before installation.
This Installation and maintenance manual provides the instructions for installing MT880 meters. The
document provides a short overview of the meter, details of device installation and set-up, installation
considerations, and health and safety considerations.
The installer will be considered as a public face by both the power company and its customers. The installer
shall adopt the highest standards of behaviour and be respectful to clients and members of the public.
Before beginning of the installation procedure, check if the metering point is correctly prepared for meter
installation. The metering point must always be left clean and in order.
The work location shall be defined and clearly marked. Adequate working space as well as means of access
and lighting shall be provided at all parts of an electrical installation on, with, or near which any work activity
is to be carried out.
Where it is necessary, safe access to the work location shall be clearly marked.
The metering point must not be exposed to running water or fire.
Meter installation may not be performed by unauthorised and untrained personnel. Such persons are not
allowed to cut the seals and open the terminal or meter cover as contact with the live parts of the meter is
dangerous for life.
Opening the terminal or meter cover is dangerous for life because there are live parts inside.
Installation personnel must possess the required electrical knowledge and skills, and must be authorised by
the utility to perform the installation procedure.
The installer is obligated to perform the installation procedure in accordance with the national legislation and
internal norms of the utility.
National legislation can set out the minimum age and the competence criteria for installers. In case there are
no national requirements defined, the following criteria shall be used by assessing the competence of
installers: knowledge of electricity, experiences on electrical work, understanding of the installation

V2.00 –English 4/40 1. SAFETY INFORMATION
MT880
Installation and maintenance manual
procedures, practical experience of that work, understanding the hazards which can arise during the work
and the precautions to be observed, ability to recognize at all times whether it is safe to continue working.
According to the basic principles, either the nominated person in control of the electrical installation or the
nominated person in control of the work activity shall ensure that specific and detailed instructions are given
to the personnel carrying out the work before starting and on completion of the work.
Before starting work, the nominated person in control of the work activity shall give notification to the
nominated person in control of the electrical installation, of the nature, place and consequences to the
electrical installation of the intended work.
CAUTION: The installer is expected to fully understand the risks and safety issues involved in
electrical installations. The installer shall be aware at all times of the potential hazard of electrical
shock and shall exercise due caution in completing the task!
Tools, equipment and devices shall comply with the requirements of relevant National or International
Standards where these exist. Tools, equipment and devices shall be used in accordance with the
instructions and/or guidance provided by the manufacturer or supplier.
Any tools, equipment and devices provided for the purpose of safe operation of, or work on, with, or near
electrical installations shall be suitable for that use, be maintained and be properly used.
Personnel shall wear clothing suitable for the locations and conditions where they are working. This could
include the use of close-fitting clothing or additional PPE (personal protective equipment).
CAUTION: The installer must be correctly equipped with personal protection equipment (PPE) and
use the appropriate tools at all times during the installation.
Working procedures are divided into three different procedures: dead working, live working, and working in
the vicinity of live parts. All these procedures are based on the use of protective measures against electric
shock and/or the effects of short-circuits and arcing.
The installer must be informed if the national legislation permits the work on the installation under
voltage –live work, and must follow the rules of legislation.
Depending on the kind of work, the personnel working in such conditions shall be instructed or
skilled. Live working requires the use of specific procedures. Instructions shall be given how to
maintain tools, equipment and devices in good working order and how to verify them before working.
This subclause deals with the essential requirements (“the five safety or golden rules”) for ensuring that the
electrical installation at the work location is dead and secure for the duration of the work.
This shall require clear identification of the work location. After the respective electrical installations have
been identified, the following five essential requirements shall be undertaken in the specified order unless
there are essential reasons for doing otherwise: disconnect completely (1.), secure against re-connection
(2.), verify that the installation is dead (3.), carry out earthing and short-circuiting (4.) and provide protection
against adjacent live parts (5.).

V2.00 –English 5/40 1. SAFETY INFORMATION
MT880
Installation and maintenance manual
CAUTION: Do not attempt to install the meter before you have isolated the installation site from the
network!
DANGER: The relevant preliminary fuses must be removed before making any modifications to the
installation, and kept safe until completing the work to prevent the unnoticed reinsertion.
DANGER: Secondary circuit of current transformer must not be opened when current is flowing in the
primary circuit. This would produce a dangerous voltage of several thousand volts at the terminals and the
insulation of the transformer would be destroyed.
DANGER: Connecting the meter into the network under voltage is dangerous for life so the conductors at the
metering point must not be connected to any voltage source during the connection procedure. The meter
connection procedure may only be performed by well-trained and adequately authorized personnel.
CAUTION: Only one wire or ferrule may be connected in one terminal. Otherwise, the terminal could be
damaged or the contact could not be made properly.
CAUTION: Do not use those types of cable, which are not prescribed for the installation site and the power
requirements!
DANGER: The insulation of the connecting cable must extend over the whole visible part of the cable. There
must be no further bare part of the cable visible above the terminal edge. Touching live parts is dangerous
for life. The stripped part of the connecting wire should be shortened if necessary.
CAUTION: At the end of installation at the metering point no cable should stay unconnected or hanging
freely from the metering point.
The meter has to be mounted on a smooth vertical surface and fixed at 2 or 3 points with screws using the
proper torque (the meter has two attachment holes and, optionally, a top hanger).

V2.00 –English 6/40 1. SAFETY INFORMATION
MT880
Installation and maintenance manual
The meter is intended to be mounted at an indoor metering point, in a meter cabinet, secured against the
undesired access of unauthorized persons. Only scroll push button may be accessible from the outside. Do
not expose meter surface to very high temperatures even though the surface is made of non-flammable
plastics to prevent fire.
Electrical connection: mounting cables must be properly dimensioned and of proper shape. They must be
mounted using the proper torque. The meter should be connected according to the meter connection
diagram that is attached to the inner side of the meter terminal cover. Screws on the current terminal must be
tightened to proper torque.
CAUTION: If it is possible to install the meter without isolation from the network, i.e. on live network, then
appropriate instructions and safety warnings shall be provided.
CAUTION: Specific aspects and safety hazards related to external voltage and current transformers,
auxiliary supplies and local generation shall be covered.
DANGER: The preliminary fuses and/or voltage arresters must be re-inserted before commissioning and
functional check of the meter.
Seals on the meter have to be checked at the end of the installation procedure so that the final customer
cannot come into contact with live parts of the meter.
DANGER: If the terminal cover is not screwed tight, there exists a danger of contact with the connection
terminals. Contact with live parts of the meter is dangerous for life.
CAUTION: For safety reasons, place the terminal cover immediately after the installation procedure and fix it
with fixing screws!
DANGER: Switch on the power. Beware of the risk of electric shock at all times!
The functional check requires voltage to be applied and load applied to all phases. Determine first the energy
flow direction.
If no main voltage is present, commissioning and functional check must be performed at a later date.

V2.00 –English 7/40 1. SAFETY INFORMATION
MT880
Installation and maintenance manual
1.2.3. Meter maintenance
No maintenance is required during the meter’s life-time. The implemented metering technique, built-in
components and manufacturing procedures ensure high long-term stability of meters. Therefore no
recalibration is required during entire meters life-time.
In case the service of the meter is needed, the requirements from the meter installation procedure
must be observed and followed.
Cleaning of the meter is allowed only with a soft dry cloth. Cleaning is allowed only in upper part of the meter
–in the region of the LCD. Cleaning is forbidden in the region of terminal cover, where cables are connected
to the meter. Cleaning can be performed only by the personnel responsible for meter maintenance.
CAUTION: Never clean soiled meters under running water or with high pressure devices. Penetrating
water can cause short circuits. A damp cleaning cloth is sufficient to remove normal dirt such as
dust. If the meter is more heavily soiled, it should be dismounted and sent to the responsible service
or repair centre.
Visible signs of fraud attempt (mechanical damages, presence of a liquid, etc.) must be regularly checked.
The quality of seals and the state of the terminals and connecting cables must be regularly checked.
If there exists a suspicion of incorrect operation of the meter, the local utility must be informed immediately.
DANGER: Breaking the seals and removing the terminal cover or meter cover will lead to potential
hazards because there are live electrical parts inside.
After the end of the meter’s lifetime, the meter should be treated according to the Waste Electric and
Electronic (WEEE) Directive!
