COMMISSIONING SOLAMISER
Solamiser senses the current flowing through the house's
main incoming power cable at a point between the utility
company's energy meter and the consumer unit. This is
accomplished with a non invasive current clamp. There is
no need to disconnect the 'sealed' mains cable.
In addition to sensing the amount of current passing
between the energy meter and the consumer unit the
current clamp also senses the direction of the current. It
is therefore important that the current clamp is mounted
the right way round on main incoming cable otherwise
the sensing direction will be reversed and will result in
excessive energy use.
To get the current clamp the right way round proceed as
follows:
a) Plug the current clamp's 3.5mm Jack plug into the
Jack socket on the left hand side of Solamiser. It is
safer to plug in the current clamp before clipping
round the mains cable.
b) Clip the current clamp on the mains cable between
the consumer unit and the utility company's
energy meter. At this stage it doesn't matter which
way round, just mount it and close the clip and
note the orientation.
