Step 1: Remove all items from packaging
Step 2:
Locate Sender Box and Senso
The Sensor comprises a small plastic component with a hinged clip and a wire with a jack
plug connector on the other end. The hinged clip is designed to clip around the Live insulated
power supply cable coming from the Electricity Meter to the Consumer Unit (Fuse Box).
Warning: extreme care must be taken when working with electrical equipment as
touching exposed electrical wires or components may result in electrocution causing
death. if in any doubt consult a qualified electrical installer.
Step 3:
Locate Electricity Meter and identify live supply cable
•Locate your electricity meter
• Look at the cables entering the meter at the bottom. You will need at least 150mm (6”) of
cable from the meter to the consumer unit to be accessible to fit the sensor around the wire.
Where the cables inside walls or enclosures and are not accessible, consult a qualified
electrical installer for advice.
• Before touching any cables, visually inspect the insulation (Plastic Covering) for any signs
of damage or deterioration such as cracks in the outer covering, visible copper cores, burnt
or blackened covering. If damage is seen, do not touch anything and contact a qualified
electrical installer for advice.
• If there is any water present in the fuse box, caused by rain or leakage, do not install the
sensor until everything is absolutely dry.
• You should see four cables entering the bottom of the meter, these are the incoming
electrical supply cables (Live and Neutral) from the suppliers main fuse (electrical cut out)
and the outgoing “Meter Tails” (Live and Neutral) that run from the meter to the consumer
unit (fuse box).
note if you have an off-peak supply there may be more cables seen here,
if that is the case consult a qualified electrical installer.
Step 4:
Clip the Sensor (s) around the live outgoing supply cable (not the neutral) which goes into your
consumer unit. Do not pull or bend the cables, all that is required is for you to ease the cable
into position where you can clip the sensor around the cable.
if in any doubt always consult a qualified electrical installer.
