Please contactyour supplier additional for sensors. Thesensors suitahrle usewith are for wire diametersup to 11mm. They must not be forcedover cables greater than 11mm or the sensorwill break" lf wiringis largerthan 1l nrm diameterthe sensormay be clipped over a numbercf circuitwiresfrom the same phase, to readthe total currentbeingdrawn. lf all of thesewiresdo not fit into one sensor then anothersensorcan be used tn measure the currentin the remaining circuitwires- providing thesewiresareof the samephase. Youwill needto fit the sensorto the livefeed cablewhich connects the meterto the fuse box (consunrer unit). Any power you use in your homewill passthroughthis cable. The clip-onsensoracts as a currentsensor, and relaysthe currentbeingdrawn in the home, to the transmitter. From there it l* sent wirelessly the monitor to display unit" Once the sensoris clippedaroundthe correctcable, connectthe sensor the transmitter inserting jack on the end of the white to by the cable into any of the three input sockets on the transmitter.
