ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION FOR ELECTRICITY MONITORING
PRODUCTS
It is important that you observe some simple safety precautions when installing Eyedro Electricity
Monitoring products. The Eyedro Electricity Monitor was designed to be non-intrusive and easy to install.
Typically, there is no need to disconnect any electrical cabling during the installation. However, there are
several safety issues that should be considered when installing and using the system.
UNSURE ABOUT HANDLING ELECTRICAL WIRING? CONSULT A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN FOR SENSOR INSTALLATION.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, always open or disconnect circuit from power-
distribution system (or service) of building before installing or servicing current sensors, metering
equipment, or sub-metering equipment.
Installation may require the cover of the main electrical panel to be removed while some wires are still
electrified. Even when the main breaker has been turned 'OFF' certain areas of the panel may still be
dangerous and carry the risk of shock, burn, and electrocution. Installation should be performed by
qualified electrician or duly qualified personnel where required by law. Check with your local
authority having jurisdiction for permit and inspection requirements. DO NOT attempt installation
unless you know where electrified areas within the panel are.
The current sensors clip on to the live cables which supply electricity to your electrical panel and/or
branch circuits and loads. When installing these sensors:
DO NOT install the sensor onto a cable whose current exceeds the rated current of the sensor.
DO NOT install the sensor onto cabling that is loose, wet, or appears damaged (cracked, burned,
bare copper or missing insulation). Contact a qualified electrician and/or your electricity supplier
to report your findings.
DO NOT bend or force the cables during installation.
DO NOT force the sensor onto the cabling if the cable diameter appears to be too large.
