Site Planning
1.
Determine the number of PowerHawk 6212, 6312 and 6412 meters to
be installed and ensure adequate space. For clearances, see Figure 4
on page 9.
2.
Determine the number of analog phone lines or Ethernet drops
required, and ensure they are installed before installing the PowerHawk
6212, 6312 and 6412 meters. The recommended maximum number of
PowerHawk meters per phone line is 50.
3.
Determine the number and types of meters or monitors required
(single-phase, network, or three-phase).
4.
Determine the model number and correct input voltage based on the
voltage label on the top right side of the unit.
Access to Power and Lighting
The installation site must be supplied with access to the main electrical panel
and any sub-panels. Portable or permanent lighting must be available to
provide the installers with a clear view of the equipment and of the installation
environment. Each installation may vary depending on physical site
restrictions.
Installation Procedures
This section provides information about activities that must be performed to
install the PowerHawk 6212, 6312 and 6412 meters in a single-phase 2-wire,
single-phase 3-wire (network), or three-phase 4-wire application (120/208V).
