Packet Power™ Monitoring Module Users Manual Copyright 2009-2013 Packet Power, LLC. 1 Introduction Using this Manual This manual contains information about the Packet Power™ Power Monitoring Module (“PMM”) and associated software. This manual is divided into two parts. The first part is relevant to products using the P5T3 models of the PMM. The second part is relevant to the P2T3 models of the PMM. The PMM model number and associated information is noted on the product label. Each part is divided into sections covering the installation and connection of the PMM, basic software configuration and technical specifications. Power Monitoring Module Overview Service types The PMM provides single and three-phase A/C net-metering-compatible power consumption and quality monitoring. The PMM is capable of real-time monitoring of three-phase power systems in a variety of configurations. The PMM is directly connected to the monitored circuit for voltage monitoring and uses external current transformers (“C/T”s) for current monitoring. Communication PMM incorporates Packet Power’s advanced zero-configuration wireless mesh networking technology to transmit power measurement data to remote data monitoring and analysis systems. Enclosure PMM is designed to fit into a variety of standard electrical enclosures. In order to provide a reliable radio connection, the PMM is equipped with an internal radio antenna fully encased within the enclosure. To allow proper radio operation, the PMM must be housed such that the top portion of the unit is not fully enclosed in a metal housing. The PMM must be housed in an enclosure that prevents access to the terminal strip and wires. The PMM is certified as a UL modular device. Packet Power Solution Overview The PMM communicates using Packet Power’s wireless network. As soon as a PMM is installed and powered up, it automatically tries to join the wireless network. If you already have an operating Packet Power network within your facility all information from the PMM will shortly become accessible. If you do not yet have a Packet Power network operating within your facility, a separate radio gateway device called an Ethernet Gateway is required to create the wireless network needed in order to gather information from the PMM. A software application operates in conjunction with the radio gateway device(s) to control how information is gathered and formatted for transmission over an IP network for consumption by various other applications. Please refer to the software section of the manual for additional information regarding wireless gateway and software setup.

Familiarity with and understanding of all terms used in this section is assumed. The user is responsible for ensuring that all electrical connections are safely performed in accordance with all applicable codes and regulations using appropriate tools and materials. The user is responsible for ensuring that all applicable codes and regulations are satisfied. The PMM requires that a proper, external power disconnect such as switch or circuit breaker be available upstream (on the supply side) from the unit. Power must be disconnected before the unit is installed. The PMM is a CAT II/CAT III measurement device. When the device is powered, line voltages may be present on all device terminals, including the C/T terminals IA, IB, and IC. All wiring and C/Ts connected to the device must meet the appropriate CAT II/CAT III standards. Please note that exact line voltages vary with regions. “120V” is used to denote voltages in the 100-120V range. “208V” and “220V” are used to denote voltages in the 200-240V range. Choosing the PMM version and wiring configuration Before installing the PMM please determine the type of circuit being monitored, including: 1. Circuit type (single phase vs. three phase, Wye vs. Delta) 2. Line voltages. Please be careful not to confuse intra-phase (e.g. L-L) voltage with line-neutral (e.g. L-N) voltage. 3. Line current ratings. 4. Any space considerations that may affect the choice of C/T. Once this information is available, please refer to Table 2 below and the wiring diagrams to determine the appropriate PMM voltage version, wiring configuration and the number of current transformers required.

Packet Power™ Monitoring Module Users Manual Copyright 2009-2013 Packet Power, LLC. 8 1. The C/T must be approved by Packet Power for use with the PMM. 2. The C/T must be sized correctly for the maximum current of the circuit being measured. 3. The C/T must meet all local and national safety requirements relevant to the installation, including but not limited to maximum voltage and any other relevant mechanical requirements. 4. The output of the C/T must be compatible with the PMM. There are two versions of the P5T3 PMM, one designed to work with certain un-shunted C/Ts and one designed to work with certain shunted CTs. In order to receive accurate readings, the PMM firmware must be programmed to match the exact specifications of the C/T that is being used. 5. Each C/T input is fuse-protected with a 250mA safety fuse. Safety fuses are not field-replaceable. 6. Using the wrong C/T can result in damage to the PMM and inaccurate measurement readings. Please use only the C/T’s supplied by Packet Power with your PMM. Sample C/T’s and their associated current range are shown below: Current transformer Max. monitored current PacPow 35A, Geist 35A 35A Geist 8688 72A CR Magnetics CR 3110-3000 106A JD-JC24-200 235A Note that C/T’s may provide less accurate readings at loads under 5-10% of their maximum rated current. Installing the current transformer connections Once the appropriate current transformers have been chosen they should be installed over the appropriate load-carrying lines and connected to the PMM terminals according to the configuration diagram. Please note that current transformers are polarized (i.e. the two wires are not interchangeable) – if swapped, the PMM will detect energy as flowing in the opposite direction (“running the meter backwards”). Please refer to current transformer data sheet to determine the correct connection or contact Packet Power. Note: You must ensure the current transformer(s) you have selected is approved by Packet Power and matched correctly to maximum rated load of the conductor on which it will be used. You are responsible for understanding how to correctly select and use the appropriate current transformers for the type of power you wish to monitor. Failure to correctly size and install the current transformers could result in product failure and hazardous operating conditions. Installing the voltage circuit connections Please connect the appropriate monitored voltage lines to the appropriate PMM terminals using 14-20AWG wire that meets all relevant safety standards. Note: You must ensure that all connections (“taps”) being made to the load-carrying lines satisfy relevant safety codes and local regulations. You are responsible for understanding how to perform this connection. Failure to correctly perform this connection could result in product failure and hazardous operating conditions. Verifying PMM connections Before mounting the PMM please verify that:

The P5T3 model may use a radio operating at 2.4GHz, a radio operating in a subset of the range between 860 and 930MHz (the exact frequencies vary with region – please contact Packet Power for details), or both depending on how the firmware in the module is configured. The network operates in a mesh topology. Each device in the network must be within range of at least one other device in the network. The effective range of the radio in the PMM varies depending on several factors, including the environment in which the product is used. Typically, the device has an effective range of 25 to over 100 feet. The PMM will not transmit effectively if it is installed in an enclosure that blocks radio signals. Every site where the PMM is deployed must have installed at least one compatible Packet Power Ethernet Gateway device and associated software to collect data and prepare it for transmission to approved monitoring and analysis applications. The rate at which monitoring information is gathered from a PMM depends primarily on the ratio of the number of PMMs to the number of gateways. It can range from every few seconds to 100 seconds or more. Note: In the event of a loss of power to the PMM, energy consumption information (Wh) for all three channels and the total is retained in non-volatile memory and will be transmitted when power is restored.

Choosing the correct current transformers The PMM can operate with a variety of standard current transformers (C/Ts). Any current transformers used with the PMM must satisfy the following criteria: PMM 240V Version LINE LOAD X Y Z N IA+ IA- IB+ IB- N IC- IC+ VA VB VC X N 220V G CTX PMM 240V Version LINE LOAD X Y Z N IA+ IA- IB+ IB- N IC- IC+ VA VB VC X Y Z N 380V 380V 380V 220V 220V 220V G CTX CTY CTZ Figure 10. 1Ø 230V wiring diagram (2P2W, 2P3WG) Figure 11. 3Ø Wye 220V/380V wiring diagram (3P4W, 3P5WG)
Packet Power™ Monitoring Module Users Manual Copyright 2009-2013 Packet Power, LLC. 22 1. The C/T must be approved by Packet Power for use with the PMM. 2. The C/T must be sized correctly for the maximum current of the circuit being measured. 3. The C/T must meet all local and national safety requirements relevant to the installation, including but not limited to maximum voltage and any other relevant mechanical requirements. 4. The output of the C/T must be compatible with the PMM. Each C/T input is fuse-protected with a 250mA safety fuse. Safety fuses are not field-replaceable. 5. In order to receive accurate readings, the PMM firmware must be programmed to match the exact specifications of the C/T that is being used. 6. Using the wrong C/T can result in damage to the PMM and inaccurate measurement readings. Please use only the C/T’s supplied by Packet Power with your PMM. Some sample C/T’s and their associated current range are shown below: Current transformer Max. monitored current PacPow 35A, Geist 35A 35A Geist 8688 72A CR Magnetics CR 3110-3000 106A JD-JC24-200 235A Note that C/T’s may provide less accurate readings at loads under 5-10% of their maximum rated current. Installing the current transformer connections Once the appropriate current transformers have been chosen they should be installed over the appropriate load-carrying lines and connected to the PMM terminals according to the configuration diagram. Please note that current transformers are polarized (i.e. the two wires are not interchangeable) – if swapped, the PMM will detect energy as flowing in the opposite direction (“running the meter backwards”). Please refer to current transformer data sheet to determine the correct connection or contact Packet Power. Note: You must ensure the current transformer(s) you have selected is matched correctly to maximum rated load of the conductor on which it will be used. You are responsible for understanding how to correctly select and use the appropriate current transformers for the type of power you wish to monitor. Failure to correctly size and install the current transformers could result in product failure and hazardous operating conditions. Installing the voltage circuit connections Please connect the appropriate monitored voltage lines to the appropriate PMM terminals using 14-20AWG wire that meets all relevant safety standards. Note: You must ensure that all connections (“taps”) being made to the load-carrying lines satisfy relevant safety codes and local regulations. You are responsible for understanding how to perform this connection. Failure to correctly perform this connection could result in product failure and hazardous operating conditions. Verifying PMM connections Before mounting the PMM please verify that: 5. You are using the correct voltage version of the PMM for your configuration.

All current transformers have been correctly located over the load-carrying lines (please consult C/T documentation if necessary) 7. All current transformers have been correctly and securely connected to the PMM terminals 8. All voltage connections have been correctly and securely connected to the PMM terminals. Mounting the PMM The PMM must be firmly secured within a housing that prevents access to any exposed connectors and ensures the connectors cannot come into contact with an electrically conductive enclosure. The design of the PMM allows for easy installation in a standard gang box with a full face plate as shown in the sequence below. 1 2
Packet Power™ Monitoring Module Users Manual Copyright 2009-2013 Packet Power, LLC. 24 3 Note: If the current transformer(s) are located in the same enclosure as the PMM, you must ensure that any electrical code fill rate requirements are being met. Maintenance and Repair Maintenance The PMM has no user-serviceable parts and requires no maintenance. If necessary, clean the outside of the PMM using a clean, dry cloth. Repair The PMM contains no field-serviceable components in the PMM. Failed products should be returned to Packet Power for replacement. For any service or repair information please contact Packet Power at service@packetpower.com. Please be sure to enclose the 16-character serial number.

The network operates in a mesh topology. Each device in the network must be within range of at least one other device in the network. The effective range of the radio in the PMM varies depending on several factors, including the environment in which the product is used. Typically, the device has an effective range of 50 to over 100 feet. The PMM will not transmit effectively if it is installed in an enclosure that blocks radio signals. Every site where the PMM is deployed must have installed at least one compatible Packet Power Gateway device and associated software to collect data and prepare it for transmission to approved monitoring and analysis applications. The frequency with which monitoring information is gathered from a PMM depends primarily on the ratio of the number of PMMs to the number of gateways. It can range from every few seconds to 100 seconds or more. Note: In the event of a loss of power to the PMM, energy consumption information (Wh) for all three channels and the total is retained in non-volatile memory and will be transmitted when power is restored. Sample Label Note the PMM is manufactured in two different models with different input power source requirements. The required type of input power is indicated on the product safety label.
