    Question: Why are solid core current transformers color coded (black & white, red & white, and blue & white)?

    Answer: Industry convention for color coding in 3 Phase 208V electrical systems assigns the color black to phase A, red to phase B, Blue to phase C, and white to Neutral. Leviton‘s 100A and 200A solid core CTs are coded with the same colors (on the body of the CTs and on the wires) to help...

    Question: Can I extend the CT leads?

    A: Yes. You should try to avoid extending the native CT leads by locating the meter next to the circuit breaker. If you must extend the leads, take into consideration the following inaccuracy contributors. Here are some of the factors that will affect accuracy when using long CT leads: 1. Wire...

    Question: Can I route voltage input wires and current sensing leads through the same conduit?

    Answer: Yes. CTs must have 18 AWG or heavier wires with proper VAC insulation rating (check local electrical code).

    Question: Can I use the S3300/S3500 meter in a 3 phase center tapped (high side) delta configuration?

    Answer: The meter should not be used in this configuration. The per-phase energy, power, voltage and amperage values in this configuration will be correct, however the Line-to-Line voltage will be calculated for a balanced 3phase system, and will not represent the actual L-L voltage. If the...

    Question: Can I use the S3300/S3500 meter in a 3 phase corner grounded delta configuration?

    Answer: Yes. The meter must be installed with the neutral terminal disconnected. Note: Line-to-Neutral voltages will be reported for a virtual neutral. (e.g. L-L=480V, L-N=277)

    Question: Can I use the Series 3300/3500 meter on a single phase 3-wire system?

    Answer: The meter should not be used in this configuration. The per-phase energy, power, voltage and amperage values in this configuration will be correct; however the Line-to-Line voltage will be calculated for a 3phase system, and will not represent the actual L-L voltage.
