How to Install

Install the energy meter by connecting it between your electrical panel and your V-BOX.

  1. Connect the ground wire from the electrical panel to the V-BOX.
  2. Insert the neutral wire from the electrical panel into the no. 1 port at the top of the energy meter. Flip open the top compartment and tighten the screw using a Phillips screwdriver (not included).
  3. Insert the neutral wire from the V-BOX into the no. 4 port at the bottom of the energy meter. Flip open the bottom compartment and tighten the screw.
  4. Insert the live wire from the electrical panel into the no. 2 port at the top of the energy meter. Tighten the screw and close the compartment.
  5. Insert the live wire from the V-BOX into the no. 3 port at the bottom of the energy meter. Tighten the screw and close the compartment.
