VOLTAGE.
WIRING:
Thicker connections are current carrying. Ensure wire used is rated for the maximum voltage and current to be
encountered.
Thinner connections are not current carrying. Ensure wire used is rated for the maximum voltage to be encountered.
Many CT devices are isolating, in those cases you should ground the A‐ (BLUE) terminal of the channel if the CT does not
ground it.
XT2640 CONFIGURATION:
In the XT2640 MEAS CONFIG menu you should appropriately set SCALE for the channel to suit the CT or shunt being used
(both a scale factor and an offset are available).
