Shark® 100S/200S Meter Quickstart Guide

CAUTION! Installation of the Shark® 100S/200S meter must be performed only by qualified personnel who follow standard safety precautions during all procedures. That personnel should have appropriate training and experience with high voltage devices. Appropriate safety gloves, safety glasses, and protective clothing are recommended.
During normal operation of the Shark® meter, dangerous voltages flow through many parts of the unit, including ing: Terminals and any connected CTs (Current Transformers) and PTs (Potential Transformers),  all I/O Modules and their circuits. All Primary and  Secondary circuits can, at times, produce lethal voltages and currents. Avoid contact with any current-carrying surfaces.
Do not use the meter or any I/O device for primary protection or in an energy- limiting capacity. The meter can only be used as secondary protection.

IMPORTANT! Refer to your meter’s Installation and Operation Manual for additional safety warnings before performing installation, wiring, or maintenance of your meter. See the link to the manual, below.
NOTE: This Quickstart Guide gives basic installation, wiring, and programming instructions. For additional meter operation and programming information, refer to your  meter’s Installation and Operation Manual and the Communicator  PQA TM, MeterManagerPQA TM, and EnergyPQA.com TM  Software User Manual on EIG’s website:

WARNING! During normal operation of the meter, dangerous voltages flow through many parts of the meter, including Terminals and any connected CTs and PTs, all I/O modules, and their circuits. All Primary and Secondary circuits can, at times, produce lethal voltages and currents. Avoid contact with any current-carrying surfaces. Before performing ANY work on the Shark® 100S/200S meter, make sure the meter is powered down and ALL circuits are de-energized.

IMPORTANT! All wiring is done with the cover open, as shown above. The front cover support fits into its base. Make sure the support is up before closing the front cover.
