Product Usage Instructions
Safety Instructions:
The Rogowski coil must be installed in an environment that meets the
maximum operational conditions of the coil.
WARNING! Connection and installation of the Rogowski coil should only be done by qualified technicians who are aware of the risks associated with voltage and current presence.
Before any operation, ensure that bare conductor wires are not powered and there are no neighboring bare conductors powered.
NOTE: The Rogowski coil complies with UL 61010-1 and UL 610102-032 standards. Installation should follow current standards, user manual instructions, and coil insulation values to prevent any hazards.
The Rogowski coil is a sensor for accurate measurement and should be handled with care. Read all instructions carefully before use.
Mounting:
- WARNING! Before installing the coil around an uninsulated conductor, ensure it is not powered, or switch off the circuit.
- WARNING! Verify proper installation of the coil to avoid measurement inaccuracies. Poor locking can affect accuracy and sensitivity to adjacent conductors or electromagnetic fields.

MOUNTING
WARNING
- Before installing the coil round a conductor not insulated, check that it is not powered otherwise switch the circuit OFF.
- Check if the coil is properly installed: a bad locking can affect measurement accuracy and the coil will become sensitive to adjacent conductors or other sources of electromagnetic fields.
NOTE : Coil must not fit tightly round the conductor, therefore its internal diameter must exceed that of the conductor.
To carry out the installation, proceed as follows:
- Fit the coil round the conductor, bringing the coil ends together.
- Lock the coil by turning the ring as indicated in picture A.
