Features

  • The GPM-C2SEM is compatible with Eaton CH 3/4 inch load centers.
  • Energy monitoring; +/- 0.5% revenue grade accuracy / 1 sec sample time when used with revenue grade current transformers.
  • Communication with a Panel Bridge Controller, Director, or Director Lite is achieved over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE).
  • Color LCD display for easy identification.

ELECTRIC SHOCK! The 120V AC, 60 Hz source poses an  electrical shock hazard that has the potential to cause serious injury to installers and end users.
CAUTION! Risk of Electric Shock – More than one disconnect CAUTION! Risk of Electric Shock – More than one disconnect
IMPORTANT! A licensed electrician is required to install any of Savant’s Power and Energy Modules.

Important Information

  • Each Current Track Module requires two spaces in an electrical service panel.
  • All wiring in the United States must be installed in accordance with the latest adopted edition of the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70, NEC)
  • All wiring in Canada must be installed in accordance with the latest adopted edition of the Canadian Electrical Code (CSA C222.2 CEC, Part 1) and any provincial or local requirements.
  • Use only Savant approved current transformers. A list of supported transformers is available in the Accessories section on the previous page.
  • The largest current transformer Savant offers supports wire diameters up to a 750 kcmil conductor (750 kcmil = just under 1 inch).

Installation into Breaker Panel

IMPORTANT! See the Single and Three Phase Electrical Panel Installations section before plugging the module into an electrical panel.

  1. Remove power from the electrical service panel by switching off the panel’s main breaker.
  2. Position and install the Current Track Module into the appropriate slots. The neutral clip on the bottom of the module must sit on a portion of the neutral bar where no neutral wire is installed beneath it. With a wire installed in the hole under the neutral clip, the module won’t seat properly.
  3. Press firmly until fully seated onto the bus bars.

Install the Current Transformer

Up to two current transformers can be connected to a GPM-C2SEM. Information on orienting and connecting the CTs into an electrical panel is described below.

  1. Toggle the electrical panel’s main breaker Off.
  2. Remove the panel’s front cover and set it aside. Verify that power was removed from the circuit breakers using a voltage tester.
  3. Separate the current transformer by squeezing the knurled panel and pulling/rotating the top open.
  4. Place the current transformers around each of the conductors being monitored.
    • Orient the current transformer so the arrow in the middle points towards the source i.e., breaker or utility meter.
    • On solar or generator installations, orient the current transformer so the arrow points away from the solar panels or generator.
  5. Close the current transformer around the conductor. For added security, wrap a cable tie around the CT or run the tie through the loops on the front.
  6. Route the twisted black and white wires around the breaker panel back to the module. Route the wires so they don’t directly come in contact with a live bus bar or terminal.
  7. Observing polarity, insert the wires into the supplied 4-pin connector and secure by turning screws clockwise. See the Making Connections section to the right for info on attaching the wires.SAVANT-028-9395-Current-Track-Module- \(5\)
  8. Repeat steps 3-7 to install a second current transformer if needed.
  9. Ensure the 4-pin connector is fully seated into the module and tighten the connector’s screws to .18 ft-lb (.25 N-m) max.
  10. Toggle the main breaker back to the On position and re-apply power to the electrical panel. The Current Tracker Module is ready to monitor the circuit the CT is installed over.

Making Connections

  1. Remove power if power is applied.
  2. Pull to remove the terminal block from the module’s rear panel.
  3. With a small flat-bladed screwdriver, turn the screws on the top of the connector counterclockwise until the silver crimps on the front of the connector open enough to slide the wire into the square slot.
  4. Strip back the insulation of each wire to 1/4 inch (6.5 mm). Insert the stripped wire into the proper port. Do not allow more than 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) of bare wire exposed. See image.
  5. Turn the screws clockwise until the silver crimps tighten around the wire. Tug on the wire a bit to verify the wire is installed securely.
  6. Continue until all wires are installed.
  7. Plug the terminal block into the appropriate port.
  8. Repeat steps 2-7 to install a second current transformer.
  9. Reapply power.

System Overview

SAVANT-028-9395-Current-Track-Module- \(7\)

HELPFUL! A Class 2 Surge Protection Device is recommended when installing Savant’s power or energy equipment in areas that experience frequent lightning or other transient voltage and current producing phenomena.

LCD Screen Orientation
During power-up, the text and icons on the LCD screen are oriented so they are right side up. If the text and icons are upside down, unplug and replug the Current Track Module to power cycle it. The LCD screen will reorient itself during boot-up, so the screen becomes right side up.

Single and Three Phase Electrical Panel Installations
In a single-phase electrical panel, phases L1 and L2 alternate slots. In a three-phase panel, phases L1, L2, and L3 repeat every three spaces. The slot in the electrical panel that the Current Track Module is plugged into, and the wire being monitored must be on the same phase. Not doing this will result in the module’s LCD displaying a negative power. See the diagram below for more information.

IMPORTANT!

  • The Current Track Module is plugged into slots 13 and 15 and is positioned so Port 1 is plugged into the L1 phase in the panel. Therefore, the current transformer wired to Port 1 must monitor a wire connected to the L1 Phase.
  • Port 2 on the Current Track Module is plugged into the L2 Phase so the current transformer wired to port 2 must monitor a wire connected to the L2 Phase.
  • The same is true for ports connected to the L3 Phase. The wire being monitored must be connected to the L3 Phase.

Hardware Setup Process

Useful Information

  • A hardware setup screen opens when the Current Track Module is first powered on. Follow the instructions in the On-Device Setup Process Screens section for information on navigating the setup options.
  • During the hardware setup process:
    • Press and release the PAIR button to scroll through the menu options.
    • Press and hold the PAIR button to save the highlighted menu option and then move to the next screen.
  • Select the Exit option to bypass the hardware setup process.

On-Device Setup Process Screens
With the module installed and powered, a series of On-Device setup screens are made available to configure the type and location of the device being monitored by the Current Track Module. The progression of screens for this process is shown below. If a user decides not to use this process, they can simply |Exit| out of the setup and can instead set up the device using the Savant Power & Light mobile app.
