Read all instruction carefully and check the device before
installing or service it. The following safety alert symbol may
appear throughout this manual or on device to warn any
potential hazards or to call for attention.
PLEASE NOTE
The power meter should be installed, operated, serviced and
maintained only by qualifi ed personnel. No responsibility is
assumed by the manufacturer for any consequences arising
out of the use of this material.
DISCLAIMER
Mikro shall not be liable for errors contained herein including
any incidential and/or consequential damages arising from

notice.
COPYRIGHT
The licensed software contaioned in the product is proprietary
software owned by Mikro or its third party suppliers and shall
be used solely in connection with the product.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
• Apply appropriate personal protective equipment and
follow safe electrical work practices.
• NEVER work alone.
• Turn-off all power supplying the power meter and the
equipment in which it is installed before working on it.
• Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to
confi rm that all power is off .
• Before closing all covers and doors, carefully inspect the
work area for tools and objects that may have been left
inside the equipment.
• NEVER bypass external fusing.
• NEVER open circuit a CT; use the shorting block to short
circuit the leads of the CT before removing the connec-
tion from the power meter.
• Before performing hi-pot testing on any equipment in
which the power meter is installed, disconnect all input
and output wires to the power meter. High voltage test-
ing may damage electronic components contained in
the power meter.
• The power meter should be installed in a suitable electri-
cal enclosure.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious
injury.

2.2. MOUNTING
a) Provide a cut out hole on the switchgear panel according
to the dimension below.

2. Installation Guide
Before installing the power meter,please check that the
environment meets the following condition:
• Operating temperature -10 Celcius to +55 Celcius.
• Humidity 5% to 95%, non-condensing
• Dust free environmental away from electrical noise and
radiation
2.1. PRECAUTIONS

5
b) Insert the power meter through the hole and slide in the
retainer clip along the slots on left and right sides or bottom
and top sides of the power meter until the device is tightly
secured on the switchgear panel. The orientation of the
retainer clips is shown in fi gure 1.
The retainer clip can be removed by lifting the tab lightly at
the handle end.
c) Connect the metering voltage input, current input,
communcation and auxiliary according to the wiring schemes
shown in section 2.2 fi gure 3 to 6 on the next page.
d) The recomended wire size is as below:
• voltage input and auxiliary - AWG16~22
• current input - AWG12~18
• Modbus-RTU - AWG22 or thicker, shielded twisted pair
NOTE: Polarity marks must be followed as shown
for CTs (S1 and S2).
Please make sure the power to the current meter-
ing input is totally shunted. Under no circumstances
can the CT connection be left open circuit. Use a
CT shorting block if necessary.

6
e) When connecting the power meter, please make sure the
polarity to the terminal is correctly aligned.
f) If the Modbus-RTU is used, it can be connected up to 32
devices in a daisy chain fashion and the cable total length
should not be more than 1000m.
NOTE: For Modbus-RTU connection, avoid running
the cable near sources of electrical noise. The
network cable sheild should be grounded at only
one end.

3. Meter parameters
Before commencing operation, the meter has to be set up. To
do this, the meter must be powered up by the meter control
power supply.
Under section 6, the following parameters should be reviewed
against the default value if necessary:
• CT ratio
• PT ratio
• Neutral current input
• Modbus-RTU setting
• Demand setting
• System setting
• Scroll mode setting and delay time
• Backlight setting
The fl ow maps for the meter is under section 5. It is guideline
for the user to fl ip to the desire window whether in normal
mode or programming mode.
