Auxiliary power supply
The instrument can be supplied with a voltage independent by the monitoring line. In this case, the instrument
continues to operate independently by the voltage present on the lines under control.
Alternatively, only for 90÷250Vca/cc version, it is possible to take the power from the network under test, using
the phase and neutral for a 4-wire network, phase to phase in a 3-wire system without neutral or from a VT in a
MT application. In this case when the voltage of the monitored line falls below the minimum limit, the instrument turns off.
The instrument can be supplied in two different configurations of power supply:
Standard Version
90÷250 Vac/dc
Option Version
20÷60 Vac/dc
Voltage Inputs
4 terminals are available for direct connection to 3 phase network with neutral. In case of a 3 phase balanced
system without neutral, or non distributed neutral to leave terminal N free.
3 inputs, range 30 ÷ 400Vac phase to neutral - 52 to 693Vac phase to phase (see Technical Features table for
details); over these values must used the external voltage transformers.
Frequency range: 50/60Hz.
Permanent overvoltage allowed: 480Vac phase to neutral - 830VAC phase-phase.
Overvoltage category: II (permanent installations).
Pollution degree: 2 (normally non-conductive, conductive condensation temporary).
Input resistance: > 1.8MΩ.
Load (Burden) for each voltage input: 0.09VA.
Note: To detect the frequency of the network the terminal VL1 must be always connected.
Current Inputs
Current measurements can be performed by connecting the terminals of Current inputs.
All current inputs are isolated by current transformers with different ranges depending on the model of the
instrument.
They can be interfaced directly to the line to be monitored or to be connected to the output of external CT
with higher range.
The connections to the lines to be monitored are described in chapter “
Wiring diagrams
”.
With neutral current input option installed, the instrument allows the direct measurement of neutral current in
the same way described for the line inputs.
NOTE: it is essential to observe the correct phase sequence, not invert the connections between the phases of
the current inputs and voltage (i.e. the CT placed on L1 phase must absolutely match at I1 Current and VL1 voltage). Do not
invert the terminals S1 and S2 of the CT because the measurement of power factors, and the powers would no longer be
trusted.
Version 5A
Three-phase current inputs isolated by 3 internal current
transformers.
Nominal current range 50mA÷5A; over these values must
be used the external current transformers.
Load (Burden) for each current input: 0.0009VAmax.
Version 1A
Three-phase current inputs isolated by 3 internal current
transformers.
Nominal current range 10mA÷1A; over these values must
be used the external current transformers.
Load (Burden) for each current input: 0.0009VAmax.
Version TTA50
Three-phase current inputs isolated by 3 external current
transformer (openable).
Nominal current range 500mA÷50A.
Version TTA100
Three-phase current inputs isolated by 3 external current
transformer (openable).
Nominal current range 1A÷100A.
Neutral Current: the nominal current range depends by the version.
