11.3 Placing the cords
Insert the cords as follows:

Figure 68: The connectors on the top.
Item Function
1. External power supply by specific mains power
unit.
2. 4-point input for current sensor (MN clip, C clip,
AmpFLEX, etc.).
3. Safety socket of the voltage measurement cable
(negative terminal).
4. Safety socket of the voltage measurement cable
(positive terminal).
Connect the measurement cords to the C.A 8230 as
follows:
Voltage measurement: COM and (+) terminals.
Current measurement: 4-point connector (item
2). On the current sensor, do not forget to set
the switch (if there is one) to a sensitivity that
corresponds to the current to be measured.
The measurement cords are connected to the circuit
to be studied as shown by the following diagrams.
11.3.1 Single-phase network

11.3.2 Balanced three-phase network
Figure 70: Balanced three-phase connection 006
Note: the neutral may or may not be present.
