Plugging the Current Sensor into the Remote Transmitter
Once the Current Sensor is attached to the household power line you may plug it into any of the three outlets in the Remote
Electricity Monitor by following the steps below:
WARNING:
The signal wiring (approx 1volt, 1 milliamp) on the current sensor is double insulated suitable for
installation in a 240 volt domestic power supply meter box. When passing through an enclosure opening the wiring
should be protected from sharp edges by fixed bushes
WARNING:
Do not allow the monitor to be used if it is damaged, or its safety is impaired
It is possible to purchase further Current Sensors and use them simultaneously on multiple power lines (up to 3). This may
be useful in buildings with high rates of power consumption such as factories or offices. If more than one Current Sensor is
in use the total power consumption rate displayed will be a combined reading.
When the Remote Transmitter and Current Sensor have been connected, the
electrisave
Main Unit Receiver immediately
starts receiving information. The LCD screen displays electricity consumption and greenhouse gas readings based on
default factory settings (see
SPECIFICATIONS
). In order to obtain a more accurate reading, it is advisable to make more
customised settings.
Setting the Voltage
NOTE
As the default value is 240V, a voltage setting is not required for a product used in the UK.
The ‘voltage’ of the power line you are monitoring (see
Voltage and current)
can be set by following the instructions below
Setting the electricity cost-per-hour
The
electrisave
initially displays the electricity cost-per-hour as a default or factory setting of 12 cents per kWh (
see Watts
and Kilowatts
). To find the local electricity charge per kWh, refer to your last electricity bill and then change the currency
unit and value by following the instructions below:
