Chapter 1 Introduction
Overview
Power Measurements
Accura 3000 is a high accuracy digital power meter, suited to power measurements. The device is
applied to a variety of applications, electrical facilities, intelligent building system, factory,
generator and etc, making measurements of voltage, current, power, frequency, power factor, and
demand.
Accuracy
The measuring accuracy is the most important criterion to evaluate the reliability of energy
management system. Actually low accuracy makes it hard for customers to precisely manage
energy, causing inequality of energy between incoming feeder and sum of load sides. Accura
3000 makes ±0.2% high accuracy measurements for voltage and current, and conforms to
IEC62053-22 class 0.5S for power and energy. This makes it possible to solve the problem with
energy inequality.
CE/UL Safety and Reliability
The structure- framework, circuit, fire - of Accura 3000 conforms to safety standard,
CE[IEC61010], UL[UL61010-2, 2nd edition]. Particularly the device provides pass-through busbar,
allowing CT leads to be terminated on the device. This eliminates any possible point of failure at
the device.
Display Easy to Read
Accura 3000 is implemented with large-size 7 segments[3 line 0.56”] distinguished with the other
models. This makes customers easily read voltage, current, power at the same time.

Applications
True RMS Measurements robust to harmonics
Most of energy environments consist of nonlinear loads, such as industrial load, rectifier, power
electronic device, electric furnace and etc. this causes fatal distortion of voltage and current
waveforms. Accura 3000 makes high accuracy True RMS measurements for voltage and current
distorted with harmonics.
Compatibility with Analog Meters
Accura 3000 mounts directly in ANSI C39.1[4” Round] or DIN 96. this is perfect for new
installations and for existing panels. In new installations, simply use existing DIN or ANSI punches.
For existing panels, pull out old analog meters and fit the device in its cutout.

4If realtime measurements exceed maximums, the maximums will be updated, the measurements being
ignored within 10msecs after power up.
5If realtime measurements is less than minimums, the minimums will be updated, the measurements being
ignored within 10msecs after power up.
Note
The Maximums and minimums will not be updated with no power-up.

Chapter 2 Mounting
Environmental Conditions
The Accura 3000 should be mounted in a dry, dirt free location away from heat sources and very
high electric fields. To operate properly and effectively, environmental conditions should range
within the following guidelines
Items Acceptable Range
Position Indoor use
Operating Temp -20 ~ 70°C[-4℉~ 158℉]
Storage Temp -40 ~ 85°C[-40℉~ 185℉]
Operating Humidity 5 ~ 95% Non condensing
Enclosure Considerations
The enclosure the Accura 3000 is mounted in (typically a switchgear cabinet) should protect the
device from atmospheric contaminants such as oil, moisture, dust, and corrosive vapors, or other
harmful airborne substances. The mounting enclosure should be positioned such that the doors
may be opened fully for easy access to the Accura 3000 wiring and related components to allow
for convenient troubleshooting.
Warning
The meter should be installed in a switchgear cabine
t or similar enclosure to ensure the terminal
strips on the meter base are not user accessible after installation.
Mount the meter in a dry location free from dirt and corrosive vapors. Once installed, no cleaning
of the device is necessary.

Page 17
Before You Begin
Before installing the meter, observe the instructions in this guide and read the safety precautions
presented on the “Installation Considerations”page.
Danger
Power up after the voltage and current wiring is completed.

Step 1: Mounting
Sequence
1. Remove connector on the bottom of the meter.
2. fit the meter into cutout[ANSI 4”or DIN96]

Note
The meter is mounted on switchgear boards (metal cabinet) in electrical facilities.

Wire 2.1 to 3.5 mm2[ 14 to 12 AWG]
Rating10 ~ 600V 3 ~ L-L[Line to line], 0 ~ 457V 3 ~ L-N[Line to neutral]
Burden 0.02VA/phase @220V
Impedance 3MΩ/phase
Compliance Pollution degree 2, Installation Category Ⅲ
Warning
In three phase 3 wire open delta direct, line to line voltage should not exceed 457V because the
voltage is applied to the inputs of phase voltage.
PT[Potential Transformer]
PTs are required for all systems with voltage levels greater than these above. The meter inputs can
be used with PTs that have secondaries rated between AC 0V and 457V. PTs should comply with
IEC61010-1 2nd Edition, Pollution Degree 2, Overvoltage Category Ⅲ.
Warning
In case where PTs are required, the secondaries should be fused.
