eGauge PEK-277V User guide

  • I have reviewed the user guide for the eGauge PEK 277V, EG4xxx, EG4130, and 50VA Potential Transformer. This document provides a detailed overview of how to connect the various components of the 277V PEK, including instructions for wiring the potential transformer. I understand the configuration process for the various parts and I'm ready to answer any questions you may have about setting up the device.
  • What is the purpose of this document?
    What components are included in this kit?
    What is the recommended first step?
    Where can I find an example line diagram?
277V PEK Setup Guide
is guide describes one way to connect the components of the 277V PEK. e parts in this kit
can be used in many dierent ways to meet the requirements of an installation.
We recommend drilling holes for conduit, wires, and other external pieces prior to installing
components within the enclosure.
For an example line diagram, see last page.
1) Check that you have received all of the
correct parts:
2) e two 13” pieces of DIN rail should already
be mounted in the enclosure. With a Phillips
head screwdriver, check to make sure they are
tightly screwed in place.

3) Take the 5 gray terminal block pieces and
connect them to the DIN rail. Use the gray
end plate to cover the exposed end. Connect
a terminal end stopper to each side of the
terminal block. Wait to use the screws to secure
the block as you may need to adjust it later.
4) Connect the 50VA Potential Transformer to
the same DIN rail as the terminal block. Orient
the primary side (colored wires) toward the
terminal block. e black wire on the primary
side of the transformer is the neutral line.
Important: Ensure that the neutral line of the
transformer connects to the same block as the
neutral line of the incoming distribution panel!
5) Insert the black and brown wires on the
primary side of the transformer into the
terminal block as shown in the photo. Use
wire nuts or electrical tape to cover all exposed
ends of unused wire on the primary side of the
transformer.

6) Connect the 120VAC receptacle to the
opposing DIN Rail
7) Insert the white and white/black wires from
the secondary side of the potential transformer
into the 120VAC receptacle. e black and
white striped connects to the “+” or “HOT”
position and the plain white connects to the “-”
or “NEU” (neutral) position.
8) Attach the cell router or other accessory. Cell
modems use a DIN clip to attach to the rail.
9) Attach the eGauge using the included DIN
mounting kit. e mounting kit can be used to
orient the eGauge in many ways. e image to
the le shows a “at” mount.

10) Connect the power adapter for the cell
router or other accessory to the 120VAC
receptacle and the Ethernet cable to the eGauge
11) Cut lengths (about 7” long) from each of
the 15’ colored cable, strip about 1/4” from each
end, and use each to connect the eGauge voltage
block to the power distribution block.
Important: Ensure that the neutral line of the
eGauge connects to the same block as the
neutral line of the incoming distribution panel!
12) Wire the power distribution block to a
breaker or fuse block of the distribution panel
being measured.
