Precautions and safety practices
This product must be installed and serviced only by trained personnel. We strongly recommend
reading the āSprint 211 installation manualā thoroughly before installing the product.
Energy meters are generally installed in electrically hazardous areas. To minimise the risk of
electrical shock, stay away from loose or exposed electrical connections. If there is loose or exposed
electrical wiring near the meter, initiate appropriate preventive measures.
The electrical installation of electronic meters at a site requires an adequate understanding of all
governing rules and regulations.
Keep the meter away from fire, rain and direct exposure to water.
The meter may be damaged, either in part or completely, if it falls from a height.
It is recommended to immediately cut off the electricity supply upon occurrence of a fault within the
meter.
Ensure that the load does not exceed the current range specified on the rating plate.
Appropriate fuses and circuit breakers must be used in accordance with the rating of the meter.
Secure Meters recommend regular installation checks to be carried out, especially when product is
installed at locations posing high risk of degradation or corrosion, such as under direct strong
sunlight, areas with high ambient temperature and little ventilation, areas near heat sources such as a
furnace, areas where the meter is regularly exposed to chemical fumes, etc.
When enabling the external antenna always ensure that it has been plugged into the SMA connector
under the module.
To ensure optimal performance of the radio system with the meter, the radio antenna must be fitted
externally if the meter (or modem) is installed inside a metal enclosure.
Always refer to installation & associated documentations and follow the instruction and the practices
described. Manual should be strictly referred for details wherever the caution symbols are used on
the product.
If the meter is not used in the manner specified in the manual, the protection provided by the meter
may be impaired.
Safety practices must be followed as open position of the supply or load control switch does not
provide isolation from the mains network.
The installer is responsible for coordinating the rating and the characteristic of the supply side over
current protection devices to the maximum current rating of the metering equipment. Refer section
General for details.
