  • Turn off all power supplying equipment before working on or inside the equipment.
  • Product may use multiple voltage/power sources. Disconnect all sources of power before servicing.
  • Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm power is off.
  • Do not depend on this product for voltage indication.
  • Current transformer secondaries must be shorted or connected to a burden at all times.
  • Products rated for basic insulation must be installed on insulated conductors.
  • Replace all doors, covers, and protective devices before powering the equipment.
  • Install device in a appropriate electrical and fire enclosure per local regulations.
  • This product is not intended for life or safety applications.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

WARNING

RISK OF INJURY OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Do not apply current transducers to circuits having a phase-to-phase voltage greater than their voltage rating unless adequate additional insulation is applied between the primary conductor and the current transducers.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury, fire or equipment damage.

Schneider Electric assumes no responsibility for damage of equipment or personal injury caused by products operated on circuits above their published ratings.

Introduction

Schneider Electric PowerLogic HDPM6000S and Solid-Core Current Transducers (CTs) provide secondary voltage AC proportional to the primary (sensed) current. For use with the HDPM6000 platform only, these CTs provide a means to transform electrical service amperages to a voltage compatible with monitoring equipment.

Split-core models are available with 75A voltage ratings and solid-core models with 125A voltage ratings.

Installation

Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician. Turn off and lock out power to the primary circuit before installing these CTs. Use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that power is off.

NOTICE

INCORRECT POLARITY

Align CT arrow to point in the direction of the power flow.

Failure to follow this instruction can result in incorrect readings.

Solid-Core Models

  1. Turn off and lock out power to the primary circuit before installing CT.
  2. Use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that power is off.
  3. Connect the transducer output leads to the meter inputs. Reference the wiring diagram from the installation guide for the appropriate module for details.
  4. Route the primary conductor through the center of the CT and complete the conductor connections. A label on the product indicates the source side.
    All solid-core CT models should be oriented such that the wire leads face the source:
  5. Reconnect power to the panel.

Split-Core Models

  1. Turn off and lock out power to the primary circuit before installing CT.
  2. Use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that power is off
  3. Connect the transducer output leads to the meter inputs. The white wire is the x1 lead.
  4. Release the clasp on one side of the CT and open it on the hinge. Check the core ends on both sections of the CT to ensure there is no rust or debris in the closure areas.
  5. Wrap the CT around the primary lead. A label on the product indicates the source side. In the diagram below, the arrow indicates the current flow (i.e., the label faces away from the circuit breaker).

    CTs may be simply hung on the wire on which they snap around. An alternative is the use of VELCRO® strips on the bottom or hinged side of the unit, to allow for ease of mounting and removal as necessary. VELCRO is non-conductive.
  6. Close the CT until the clasp clicks into place to ensure that the contact surfaces are firmly seated.
  7. Reconnect power to the panel.
