3.2. General Instructions
It is recommended that the Power Xpert 4000/6000/8000 Meter be mounted in an electri-
cal switchgear enclosure that is suitable for its environment. The Power Xpert Display and

is recommended that the Display be door or panel mounted, the Meter can be mounted
remotely from the Display on a flat surface or panel elsewhere in the enclosure.
• The Meter must remain vertical at all times to maintain proper ventilation.
• The Display and Meter may be installed in a Pollution Degree II environment.
• If the Meter is mounted remotely, the Display MUST be connected to earth ground.
• The Meter should be protected from accidental contact with live terminals in the enclo-
sure. A 1/8 inch steel panel or door, solidly grounded, is recommended.
• The Meter comes standard with the remote mounting brackets attached.
• The Display comes standard with the required hardware for mounting the unit to a door
or panel.
