Installing the 5A CTs on the PowerLogic EM4805
Use the two 12-pair wiring harnesses provided with the meter to connect the 
5A CTs to the PowerLogic EM4805.
For wire color coding, see Table 3 or the label inside the outer cover of the 
meter. Follow these instructions to install the 5A CTs on the PowerLogic 
EM4805.
Do not apply power until you have made these connections and followed all 
instructions below: 
Connect all CTs to shorting blocks to the appropriate circuits
Connect the shorting blocks to the cables
Connect the cables to the PowerLogic EM4805 
1.
Connect the two wiring harnesses to the PowerLogic EM4805. 
The connectors are labeled Plug 1/Plug 5 to Plug 4/Plug 8 on the cable. 
This is also labeled on the meter. Ensure the connectors are inserted 
in the proper order and that the connectors are securely locked in place.
a.
Connect the first wiring harness to the Mate-n-Lok
TM
 connectors 
1 to 4, and secure the cables to the PowerLogic EM4805 chassis 
with cable ties.
b.
Connect the second wiring harness to the Mate-n-Lok
TM
 
connectors 5 to 8, and secure the cables to the PowerLogic 
EM4805 chassis with cable ties.
2.
Turn off the power feed to the panel where the CTs are being installed. 
Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm the 
power is off.
3.
Route the free end of the cable out of the meter enclosure through the 
slot in the base of the chassis. 
4.
Strip the plastic sheaths to an appropriate length to expose the wire 
pairs. Cut and strip the wire pair leads to an appropriate length.
5.
Connect the wire pair leads from the meter to the CT shorting block. 
See Table 3 for the color pair assignment of each meter point. Ensure 
that the CT shorting block is in the shorted position.
6.
Connect the CT wire pair leads to the input of the CT shorting block. 
See Table 3 for the color pair assignment of each meter point. 
7.
Remove the feed wire from the circuit breaker, place the CT over the 
wire, and reconnect to the circuit breaker. Ensure that the arrow on the 
CT label is pointing in the direction of the energy flow (toward the load). 
NOTE: The direction of the energy flow is indicated on the CT. 
DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH 
Turn off all power supplying this equipment before working on or 
inside the equipment.
Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm the 
power is off.
NEVER open circuit a CT; use the shorting block to short circuit the 
leads of the CT before removing the connection from the meter.
Do not crimp the insulation when making the wire connections.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or 
serious injury.
