•
When mounting the DTS SMX, make sure to choose the appropriate fastener or anchor for the type
of wall that the DTS SMX will be mounted on.
•
It is recommended that two separate conduits be run for voltage and current connections.
•
If installing the DTS SMX outdoors, run the electrical conduits from the bottom of the DTS SMX to
the electrical panel being monitored. If necessary install drip hook/loops to allow water to flow away
from the DTS SMX or electrical panel.
•
Only UL or ETL rated conduits and glands should be used.
•
Only UL or ETL Current Transformers should be used.
•
A spade or ring lug termination is recommended for optimally secure voltage and current
connections.
•
A UL or ETL certified circuit-breaker or fused disconnect must be installed within easy reach of the
DTS SMX. The circuit-breaker or fused disconnect must be marked as the disconnecting device for
the DTS SMX.
•
14 to 12 AWG wire should be used for the voltage and ground with a 300V or 600V insulation
depending on installation type.
•
Use the breaker guide below to determine the type of breaker to use for installation. The breaker is
used to protect the wiring from the breaker panel to the inputs of the DTS SMX.
