Quick Start
STEP 1 - INSTALLING THE RECEIVING DISPLAY UNIT (RDU)
A) Determine a suitable location and plug the RDU into a standard
120V, 15 or 20-amp outlet
• Suggestion: the kitchen counter or other convenient location
B) The RDU should be displaying all zeroes and the LED
should not be ashing. If not, another TED may be trans-
mitting on the line. Refer to Troubleshooting Section.
• If the RDU is in $ display-mode, press ‘$’ Key to change to
KW display mode.
STEP 2 - INSTALLING THE MEASURING TRANSMITTING UNIT (MTU)
(Refer To FIG 3)
TURN OFF ALL POWER TO THE CIRCUIT BREAKER PANEL BY
TURNING OFF THE MAIN BREAKER OR MAIN SWITCH.
A) Turn off power.
B) Remove panel cover.
C) Determine best location to mount MTU.
• Choose location where it will not interfere with existing equipment or wiring.
• The MTU may be attached using double-sided tape (if allowed in your jurisdiction), or
with sheet metal or machine screws.
• Sticky Black Tape
• Install two pieces of sticky back tape to backside of MTU
• Insure surfaces are clean
• Press MTU rmly into place
• Screws
• Drill pilot holes in required location
• Attach with Sheet-Metal screws if ush-mounted.
• Attach with Machine Screws and Nuts if surface-mounted.
D) Connect the black wire from the MTU to a spare 15 or 20-A circuit breaker in the panel.
Note: In Canada it must be connected to a 15A circuit breaker. Mark the panel directory
to indicate that this circuit controls the MTU.
• Note - The circuit breaker (15 or 20A) provides over current protection and a disconnect-
ing means for the MTU. Failure to provide a properly sized circuit breaker is a violation
of NEC and CEC.
• Note: This should be connected to a circuit breaker on the same phase as the recep-
tacle that the RDU is plugged into.
• Note: The wire is stranded but it is tinned which will make it seem like installing a solid
conductor.
• If there is no spare circuit breaker refer to Appendix C on page 34.
E) Connect the white wire from the MTU to the neutral bus on the panel.
