Safety Precautions

General

Carefully and completely read and adhere to these operating instructions.
The document can be found at http://www.gossenmetrawatt.com. Retain this document for future reference.
Carefully and completely read and adhere to the product documentation of the combined products. Retain these documents for future reference.
Observe and comply with all safety regulations which are applicable for your work environment.

Handling

The probe may only be used as long as it is fully intact.
Inspect all cables and the probe before use. Pay particular attention to damage, broken insulation or kinked cables.
If the probe doesn’t function flawlessly, remove it from operation and secure it against inadvertent use.
If the probe is damaged during use, e.g. through falling, remove it from operation and secure it against inadvertent use.
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified in this reference guide, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired. These safety precautions are repeated where appropriate throughout this manual.

Operating conditions

Only use the probe in conjunction with the measuring device MAVOWATT 210.
Only use the probe in compliance with the specified technical data and under the specified conditions (ambient conditions, IP protection class, measuring category, etc.).
Do not use the probe after long periods of storage under unfavorable conditions (e.g. humidity, dust or extreme temperature).

Electricity

Installation, operation, and maintenance of this product must be performed by qualified personnel only.
Qualified personnel who work on or near exposed energized electrical conductors must follow applicablesafety related work practices and procedures including appropriate personal protective equipment.
Wear proper personal protective equipment, including safety glasses and insulated gloves when making connections to power circuits.
Hands, shoes, and floor must be dry when making any connection to a power line.
Never apply the probe around bare conductors with hazardous voltages without having the appropriate permission to perform such work and without wearing protective clothing and gloves as required.
Connections must be made to the measuring device first, then to the circuit to be monitored.
The probe may only be used within the limits of the specifications listed in this manual. Loads exceeding the specified values may destroy the probe and the electrical equipment connected to it.

Applications

Please read this important information!
2.1 Intended Use / Use for Intended Purpose

Installation

4.1 Unpacking the Product

Carefully remove product and accessories from the packaging.
Check delivery for completeness and possible damage.
In case of detected damages, hidden defects and short deliveries, document type and scope and contact the manufacturer or supplier immediately.
Keep packing material for further transport.

4.2 Making Measurement Connections
To perform measurements, the Rogowski current probes are first connected to MAVOWATT 210. Subsequently, the Rogowski current probes are connected to the object to be measured.
Attention!
To avoid the risk of electric shock or burns, always connect the earth ground before making any other connections.
Attention!
Do not exceed the marked maximum ratings.
4.2.1 Connecting MAVOWATT 210 Rogowski Current Probes to MAVOWATT 210
√ MAVOWATT 210 is powered off.

Plug the output cable of the current probe to the current input of MAVOWATT 210.

4.2.2 Connecting MAVOWATT 210 Rogowski Current Probes to the Circuit to be Measured
Attention!
DO NOT attempt to measure current in any circuit in which the circuit to ground voltage exceeds the insulation rating of the current probe.
Attention!
Make sure the current probes are tightly closed. Keep mating surfaces clean and free from foreign matter.
Note!
Do not locate the probe coupling close to other conductors carrying high current.
Note!
Be sure to connect the current probes with the arrow pointing towards the load or an erroneous power reading will result.
√ MAVOWATT 210 is powered off.

Open the probe coupling and slip the measuring head over the conductor carrying the current to be measured.
Close the probe coupling such that it visibly and audibly snaps into place.

The arrow marking on the current probe points in the direction of current flow and towards the load.
The conductor is centered within the measuring head.
The measuring head forms a perfect circle. GOSSEN METRAWATT 210 Rogowski
