Q. When providing line voltage to the meter, can I tap off of the same breaker I am
monitoring?
A. Yes, the voltage can be pulled from the same breaker being monitored.
Q. Can the meter’s line voltage wires be run in the same conduit as the sensor leads?
A. Yes, there will be no effect on the meter if the sensor leads and line voltage wires
are run in the same conduit.
Q. Can the meter communication wires and line voltage wires be run in the same
conduit?
A. It is NOT recommended to run these wires together due to noise concerns and their
effects on the communications signal integrity. Communication wires can be routed
separately using the 1/2” conduit port.
