Wiring the CTs to the 

AcquiSuite™ Ally

 Meter 

The  image  below  is  the  counterpart  to  the  service  panel  illustration  and  indicates  how  to 
connect CTs to the input terminals on the 

AcquiSuite™

 Ally, for each service type. For service 

types that are not 

specifically listed, it is recommended to choose “single phase” service and 

configure each channel individually. Three phase loads are illustrated on the left and split phase 
loads on the right as an example only. Elements are fully interchangeable on the meter.

 

 

 

Current and voltage inputs must be installed ‘in phase’ for accurate readings (e.g. CT1 

on Line 1, CT2 on Line 2) 

Orientation is critical:

 Ensure that all CTs are properly oriented 

with the line and load, as marked. Failure to install CTs in the correct orientation and on 
the correct phase will lead to inaccurate meter readings.
