PowerMaster

Connections:

1. Connect the cable to either SET 1 or SET 2.

Connection to a 4-wire Service (600V Max):

1. Connect the Voltage Cable from the PowerMaster

to the secondary voltages as normal.

2. From the VP600 probe, connect the colored alligator clips to the primary side (H1) of all

respective active phases.

3. Connect the white alligator clip to a neutral phase (H2)

4. Proceed with testing.
