PowerWay-Tech Split Core Rogowski Coil & Smart Meter Installation Master Guide

Tips for Properly Installing Split Core Rogowski Coils & Smart Meters to Maximize Accuracy

You've selected PowerWay-Tech’s split core Rogowski coils and smart meters for your project—now it’s time to ensure seamless installation. Follow these steps to optimize performance while adhering to safety standards1.

1. Verify Proper Sizing for Maximum Accuracy

Before installation, confirm that your split core Rogowski coils match your application’s load requirements. Key considerations:

Rated Current: Ensure the coil’s measurement range (e.g., 5%-120% of rated current) aligns with your expected load1.

Conductor Compatibility: The coil’s window size should closely match the conductor diameter to avoid measurement errors. Avoid oversizing, as this can degrade accuracy1.

2. Simplify Installation with Split Core Design

PowerWay-Tech’s split core Rogowski coils feature a hinged design, allowing installation without disconnecting live circuits. This minimizes downtime and ensures safety compliance1.

3. Proper Wire Polarity & Connection

When wiring to your smart meter, match lead colors (e.g., white=positive, brown=negative) to the meter’s terminals. Incorrect polarity can result in negative energy readings1. For complex setups, label leads to prevent confusion.

4. Minimize Lead Length for Noise-Free Data

Use twisted-pair wiring to extend leads, but keep cable runs as short as possible (e.g., 20 feet instead of 50 feet) to reduce interference and maintain signal integrity1.

5. Final Checks & Calibration

After installation, verify meter readings against expected values. Test the system under various load conditions to ensure accurate data capture. For advanced troubleshooting, consult PowerWay-Tech’s smart meter documentation or visit www.powerway-tech.com for support.
