230V AC.
Only 230V AC, 50/60Hz electric appliances may be
connected.
The maximum power of the connected loads may
not exceed 3680W (maximum amperage 16A).
Use of the Energy Meter is only allowed indoors in
dry environments. Use in the open air is strictly
prohibited!
Always heed the instructions on the identification
label located on the connected power cables.
Use other than that described above can result in

objects or persons that arises from incorrect use or
noncompliance with the safety prescriptions. All
damage claims resulting in such cases are void.
The Energy Meter may only be connected to
regulated outlets (230V AC, 50/60Hz- 10/16A) with
a ground.
The connected appliances may not use more than
3680W (16A).
The operating temperature of the connected
appliance must be between 10º and 40º.
High temperatures, especially when measuring high
levels of electrical power, can result in overheating
