  2. When the write is unsuccessful, no return data from the slave device. In this addition, please re­ send write inquiry again.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

All installation specification described at the previous chapters named:
INSTALLATION AND STARTUP, INSTALLATION MODES and SPECIFICATIONS.
Please note that with the instrument powered on, the terminals could be dangerous to touching and cover opening actions or elements removal may allow accessing dangerous parts. This instrument is factory-shipped at proper operation condition.

  • The device must have a professional installation and maintenance.
  • Any operation of the device, you must cut off the input signal and power.

MAINTENANCE

The BJ194 … series meter does not require any special maintenance. No adjustment, maintenance or repairing action should be done when the instrument is open and powered on, should those actions are essential, high-qualified operators must perform them.
Before any adjustment, replacement, maintenance or repairing operation is carried out, the instrument must be disconnected from any power supply source.
When any protection failure is suspected to  exist, the instrument must be immediately put out of service. The instrument’s design allows a quick replacement in case of any failure.

FAQ’s

  1. Once cabled and connected is seen to give a correct voltage and current reading, but shows negative values for active power (generation).
    This is an error with the cabling for the current transformer secondary; the direction of the transformer current has to be respected as shown in the connection diagram. The current transformers have a two face primary; the current  must pass from P1 to P2 giving the result in secondary (81 and 82) of 5 amps.
    The error stems from:
    a). The current transformers have been incorrectly installed. As a result, it gives the direction of the current as passing from P2 to P1; to resolve this problem, the current transformer does not have to be dismantled and installed again, but the transformer secondary (81 and 82) just has to be inverted.
    b). The connection of the current secondary in the current transformers have been incorrectly connected; to resolve this problem just connect the 81 transformer secondary to the 81 on the meter and the 82 on the current transformer to the 82 on the meter.

  2. Once cabled and connected, is seen to give an incoherent Power factor and Cos reading (-0.01 or similar).
    This is again a current transformer and voltage phase connection error phase A, must correspond to the current transformer installed in phase A; phase B, must correspond to the current transformer installed in phase B; and phase  C, must correspond to the current transformer installed in phase C.
    This connection terminal is clearly shown on the area side of the device.

  3. The measuring voltage and is displaying the secondary voltage (for example 110 volts).
    Ensure that the voltage Transformer ratio has been correctly set (Please refer to voltage PT ratio setting section in chapter SETUP PROCEDUCE).

  4. Device does not correctly display the current reading. It shows values varying between Oto 5 amps of current.
    Ensure that the Current Transformer ratio has been correctly set; (Please refer to current CT ratio setting section in chapter SETUP PROCEDUCE).
