DOCUMENTATION AND INSTALLATION MANUAL
SYSTEM DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
· The LSP should be mounted so that the connected electrical panel is within reach of the LSP’s flexible conduit nipple. Depending on orientation, the nipple extends between 7″ and 17″ beyond the edge of the LSP enclosure. Ensure that the load center has adequate wiring space for LSP conductors and connections. Suitable junction boxes and conduit may be used to route and/or extend LSP conductors if needed. For voltage drop calculations, assume LSP conductors add 15 one-way-feet to the circuit.
· An LSP requires an always-on internet connection, either via Ethernet (preferred if available) or 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi.
· When used for energy management, the LSP will be most effective when used to shed heavy discretionary loads. These are loads greater than 15 amps that may be desired during grid outages or other energy-constrained situations. Lumin can shed such loads automatically while permitting a user to manually re- enable them at their discretion. More information about circuit selection is provided in the required Lumin Certified Installer Training. In order to shed discretionary loads in response to grid conditions, a connection to non- backed-up utility grid power is required for the LSP grid detection circuit. See pg. 28. This will require wiring beyond the LSP’s connected electrical panel.
· The LSP does not replace the need for standard circuit breakers. Lumin does not provide overcurrent protection, ground fault protection, arc fault detection, or other safety functionality that circuit breakers provide.
· The LSP uses current transformers (CTs) to measure overall power flows. Correct placement of these CTs may require wiring beyond the LSP’s connected electrical panel/s. See pg. 23.
· If the LSP is configured to automatically shed loads exceeding backup capacity following a grid outage, a Temporary Power Unit (TPU) accessory device may be required if the transfer to backup power takes more than 70 ms. Without the TPU, the LSP could lose power before backup transfer completes, and circuit disconnection would be delayed until after the LSP powers on with the backup source. If unsure about transfer times, contact Lumin to determine if a given system requires a TPU. The TPU is surface-mounted near the LSP and connected with an included cable.

Lumin Smart Panel
DOCUMENTATION AND INSTALLATION MANUAL
STEP 16. Determine Placement of Current Transformers (CTs)
DO NOT INSTALL CTS UNTIL PROPER LOCATION AND PHASING HAVE BEEN DETERMINED.
Each LSP is supplied with one set of two (2) 200-amp current transformers (CTs). The LSP is equipped with leads for these main CTs as well as leads for an optional set of auxiliary CTs which is available for purchase from Lumin. Most LSP installations do not utilize auxiliary CTs and use the main CTs to measure the total consumption of the electrical panel(s) backed up by a battery. In this typical installation, the CTs are placed on the feeders from the Microgrid Interconnect Device (MID) or Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) to the electrical panel, as shown in Figure A.
If your installation is configured differently than shown in Figure A or if your installation will utilize auxiliary CTs, consult the Lumin CT configuration guide for CT placement information.
Figure A ­ Typical CT Configuration
23

STEP 17. Phase Conductors Monitored by Current Transformers
REMINDER: For the purpose of a Lumin installation, the top* row of breakers in an electrical panel is always designated “A”. Whichever feeder leg supplies breaker Row A will be designated “A.”
NOTE: Lumin CTs are designated either “A” or “B”. Placing them on the incorrect leg of a circuit will result in erroneous consumption data.
If the panel is a main-lug-only type as shown in Figure B (no main circuit breaker) then the feeder on the left will be Lumin Leg “A”. If the panel includes a main circuit breaker, note that the main breaker may contain crossover busing, with the result that the feeder on the left feeds the rightside bus bar and the feeder on the right feeds the leftside bus bar. To identify A/B feeders when a main breaker is present, consult the following page.
Figure B ­ Typical Main-Lug-Only Electrical Panel Busing

• All descriptions assume a top-fed electrical panel.
  24

Lumin Smart Panel
DOCUMENTATION AND INSTALLATION MANUAL

STEP 18. Testing for Crossover before Current Transformer Placement

To determine A and B feeders when a main circuit breaker is present, test for AC voltage between the left lug and the left bus bar*. If the bus bar is not accessible, test between the left lug and the terminal on the top left circuit breaker. See Figure C.

Left Lug

If V between these points 240, the main breaker is a crossover type. Place CT – A on the right and CT – B on the left.

Left Bus

If V between these points 0, the main breaker is a standard type. Place CT – A on the left and CT – B on the right.

WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE. AVERTISSEMENT: HAUTE TENSION.
Tools: Multimeter

• All descriptions assume a top-fed electrical panel.

25

STEP 19. Connecting Current Transformers
Prior to installation, measure the CT leads’ routing path(s) in the electrical panel. If the provided leads are not long enough, fashion CT wire extensions in the field. Refer to the following documentation for proper extension procedures:
When installing CTs, connect CTs labeled “Line A/B CT” to the 2-pin connector on the corresponding LSP lead first. Then clamp the CT around the corresponding feeder leg as determined in the previous steps. The CT marked with “A” should attach to Leg A and the CT marked with “B” should attach to Leg B. Ensure the sticker on the CT reading “This side toward grid” is facing toward the grid/utility meter.
WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE. MAIN SERVICE LINES ARE ALWAYS LIVE. AVERTISSEMENT: HAUTE TENSION. LES CONDUCTEURS DE SERVICE PRINCIPAUX SONT TOUJOURS SOUS TENSION. CAUTION: A CT SHOULD NEVER BE LEFT CLAMPED ON A CONDUCTOR WHEN THE CT WIRING IS DISCONNECTED. SATURATION AND DESTRUCTION OF THE CT CORE MAY RESULT. CONNECT CT WIRING BEFORE CLAMPING. UNCLAMP BEFORE DISCONNECTING CT WIRING. ATTENTION: UN TRANSFORMATEUR DE COURANT NE DOIT JAMAIS ÊTRE LAISSÉ SERRÉ SUR UN CONDUCTEUR LORSQUE LES FILS DU TRANSFORMATEUR DE COURANT SONT DÉCONNECTES. LA SATURATION ET LA DESTRUCTION DU NOYAU PEUVENT EN RÉSULTER. CONNECTER LES CÂBLES DU TRANSFORMATEUR DE COURANT AU LSP AVANT L’INSTALLATION.

Configuration and Account Setup
1. After completing the hardware installation, flip the LSP power switch to the “on” position (“I”). The blue and green indicator lights will begin blinking in unison, indicating that the LSP is ready for commissioning.
2. If feasible, make an Ethernet connection between the Lumin Smart Panel’s Ethernet port and a LAN port on the location’s router. This Ethernet connection is more reliable than a Wi-Fi connection and is not affected by replacing the router or resetting the Wi-Fi network password.
3. Download the Lumin mobile app. In the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, search for “Lumin Smart”.
4. Log in with an existing account or create a new account. 5. Expand the menu (upper left of screen) and select “Set up a new Lumin Smart Panel”. 6. Follow the in-app instructions to set up your Lumin Smart Panel (completed LSP Circuit Label &
CT Table required). Invite users to grant access to the commissioned LSP.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND REPAIRS
End User
If the LSP is not functioning as expected, ensure that the power switch is on, Internet service is available, antenna/ethernet connection is secure, and breakers are switched on. See Operational Information (pg. 34) on how to read the LSP indicators for internet connectively status. It is best to obtain assistance from a qualified installer for further troubleshooting of hardware issues. The installer’s familiarity with Lumin products and ability to perform electrical work will help resolve issues effectively. Alternatively, contact Lumin directly for assistance.
Qualified Installer
Observe all safety precautions listed on page 2. Never use the LSP to de- energize circuits to perform electrical work. The LSP is not designed for safety disconnecting means; lock-out/tag-out is not possible. Additionally, when not properly connected, the app may incorrectly indicate that a circuit is de-energized, so always assume that the LSP circuits are enabled, and conductors are live. Ensure that the power switch is on, Internet service is available, antenna/ethernet connection is secure, and breakers are switched on. Inspect the system for installation and wiring faults (e.g., loose wire connections). If the issue is not resolved, contact Lumin.
Lumin Certified Installer training is required before Lumin will authorize work on an existing LSP. Casespecific authorization and instruction will be provided by Lumin if applicable. Do not open cover or attempt repairs otherwise — even with the LSP power switch and main feed breakers off, the Grid Detection Circuit (GDC) is connected to hazardous voltages. The LSP power switch does not deenergize the internal product components. Fuses: LSP Power ­ non-replaceable 2.5 A; GDC ­ 1 A, slow blow; TPU ­ 5 A, slow blow.
DANGER: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES PRESENT DURING INSTALLATION AND SERVICING. DO NOT OPEN LSP COVER, INSPECT INSTALLATION WIRING, OR ATTEMPT REPAIRS WITHOUT REQUIRED
QUALIFICATIONS AND LUMIN AUTHORIZATON. ALWAYS DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL SUPPLY BEFORE PERFORMING REPAIRS.
DANGER: TENSIONS DANGEREUSES PRÉSENTES LORS L’INSTALLATION ET L’ENTRETIEN. NE PAS OUVRIR LE COUVERCLE DU LSP, INSPECTER LE CÂBLAGE D’INSTALLATION OU ESSAYER DE RÉPARER SANS
QUALIFICATIONS REQUISES ET AUTORISATION DE LUMIN. TOUJOURS DÉBRANCHER L’ALIMENTATION ÉLECTRIQUE AVANT D’EFFECTUER DES RÉPARATIONS.

NOTE: Simultaneous blue and green blinking lights indicate that the LSP is in Setup Mode. This is the required mode for initial setup and commissioning, however the LSP does not connect to the internet via Wi-Fi in this mode. If both lights are seen blinking during normal operation, it is likely that the “Setup” button was pressed, taking the LSP offline. In most instances, an additional press-and-release of the “Setup” button will bring the LSP back online. Note that it may take about 45 seconds to restore the connection and display two solid unblinking indicator lights.
NOTE: During an internet outage local connection can be made between an LSP and user’s mobile device as long as the device and the LSP are connected to the same network. Ensure that the LSP is not in Setup Mode and that Wi-Fi connectivity is enabled on the mobile device.
NOTE: In the unlikely event that the LSP cannot be controlled via the mobile app or web interface, all Lumin-controlled circuits can be enabled by toggling the Lumin power rocker switch in a particular sequence. To bypass the system, turn LSP power off (“O”), then on (“I”), then off again (“O”). Please contact Lumin support as soon as possible so we can help resolve your issue.
