2.1 Current  measurement

When installing the current converter, care should be taken to ensure 
that the load current flows through it. The outputs of the compensation 
network  must  be  installed  behind  the  current    converter  (in  the 
direction  of  current  flow).  If  the  BR  604  is  connected  up  via    sum-
current converters, the overall conversion ratio is entered.

Example:
C.converter 1: 1000/5A
C.converter 2: 1000/5A
Sum-current converter: 5A+5A/5A

C.converter ratio is: 2000/5A
