6. INSTALLATION GUIDELINE

6.1 Safety/Warning Precautions

Safety Precautions

Dangerous voltages capable of causing death are sometimes present in this instrument.
Before installation or beginning of any troubleshooting procedures the power to all
equipment must be switched off and isolated. Units suspected of being faulty must be
disconnected and removed first and brought to a properly equipped workshop for testing
and repair. Component replacement and interval adjustments must be made by a company
person only.

Warning Precautions

Read the instructions in this manual before performing installation and take note of the
following precautions:

 All wiring must confirm to appropriate standards of good practice and local codes and
regulations. Wiring must be suitable for voltage, current, and temperature rating of the
system.

 Ensure that all incoming AC power and other power sources are turned OFF before
performing any work on the instrument. Protect the measurement AC Inputs voltage (V1, V2,
V3) with 2A external over current protection device and the power supply source inputs with
5A external over current protection device, located close to the equipment.

 Before connecting the instrument to the power source, check the labels on the instrument to
ensure that your instrument is equipped with the appropriate power supply voltage, input
voltages and currents. Failure to do so may result in serious or even fatal injury and/or
equipment damage.

 Under no circumstances don’t connect instrument a power source if it is damaged.

 To prevent potential fire or shock hazard, do not expose the instrument to rain or moisture.

 The secondary of an external current transformer must never be allowed to be open circuit
when the primary is energized. An open circuit can cause high voltages, possibly resulting in
equipment damage, fire and even serious or fatal injury. Ensure that the current transformer
wiring is secured using an external strain relief to reduce mechanical strain on the screw
terminals, if necessary.

 Only qualified personnel familiar with the instrument and its associated electrical equipment
must perform setup procedures.

 Beware not to over-tighten the terminal screws.

 Read this manual thoroughly before connecting the device to the current carrying circuits.
During operation of the device, hazardous voltages are present on input terminals. Failure to
observe precautions can result in serious or even fatal injury or damage to equipment.

 Upon receipt of the shipment remove the unit from the carton and inspect the unit for shipping
damage. If any damage due to transit, report and claim with the carrier. Write down the model

Page 15 of 48 User’s Manual

Model: MFT

number and serial number for future reference when corresponding with our Customer
Support Division.

 Do not use this instrument in areas such as excessive shock, vibration, dirt, moisture,
corrosive gases or rain. The ambient temperature of the areas should not exceed the
maximum rating specified.

6.4 PTs and CTs

Large electrical installations have high voltages and currents, which may exceed the direct
connection rating of the MFT. In this case, Potential Transformers (PTs) and Current Transformers
(CTs) are used to precisely “step down” or reduce the voltage and current level to suit the Transducer
rating. Potential Transformers usually have a full-scale output of 110V ac RMS line-line and Current
Transformers, a full-scale output of 5A or sometimes 1A.

The PTs (Potential Transformers) and CTs (Current Transformers) must be planned, installed
and tested by a qualified electrical contractor before wiring the transducer. The accuracy of the
measurement also depends on the accuracy and phase – angle error of the PTs and CTs. Instrument
Class 1 or better PTs and CTs are recommended. Do not use protection class CTs to feed the MFT;
as they have poor accuracy and phase characteristics.

Ensure that the CT primary rating has been selected so that your normal load variation lies
between 40% and 80% of its full scale. If your CT is over-rated, say if the load is always less than
10% of the CT primary rating, accuracy suffers.

6.4.1 PT, CT Wiring

The PTs and CTs must have adequate VA rating to support the burden (loading) on the
secondary. You may want to support the auxiliary supply burden from one of the PTs. CTs wiring can
impose additional burden (loading) on the CT. For example, if the CT has a 5A secondary and the
wire resistance is 1.0 Ω, then the CT has to support an additional burden of 5VA. The wiring distance
from the CT secondary to instrument should be such that, VA of wire path between MFT and CT
along with VA of MFT should not exceed the VA rating of CT, otherwise the CT could get over-
burdened and give large errors.

MFT should be conveniently located for easy connections of voltage (PT) and Current (CT)
signals.

will be at right most digit of value, set the value as per previous explanation and save it. For DATA
TYPE using UP or DOWN key select the required data type and press PGM key to store this value in
to EEPROM. Finally press the SHIFT key to get escape from this screen and come back one step.
Here arrow will be at where you entered.

7.4.3 METER SETTING

For this, screen will be shown like below:

Here two parameters are available like: PSWRD & SYSTEM setting. PSWRD is for four digit
password to security purpose. SYSTEM is used to whether MFT is for 3 phase 4 wire or for 3 phase 3
wire.

Note: Wiring for 3P4W and 3P3W are different so, change/check the wiring also if you are
changing this parameter in installed device.

To change PSWRD value, apply same procedure as applied as in previous and save it. Finally press
the SHIFT key to get escape from this screen and come back one step. Here arrow will be at where
you entered.

7.5 AUTO/MANUAL SCROLL

AUTO/MANUAL SCROLL change can be done as mentioned below:

AUTO SCROLL

- From flow diagram you can see, the screens are in ROW and COLUMN. It will
automatically scroll the page every 8 seconds COLUMN wise and will jump to next
adjacent COLUMN for AUTO SCROLL.
- To toggle SCROLL mode i.e. Auto to Manual and Manual to Auto, press SHIFT key for 5
seconds, it will not get programmed, so till MFT gets Power off it will remain in that mode.
- To program MANUAL SCROLL and freeze particular page every time it get Power ON,
first let that page come in AUTO SCROLL or go to that particular page using temporary
MANUAL SCROLL than press PGM key to enter in to Program mode.
- In second line of display change it from AUTO SCROLL to MANUAL SCROLL by
pressing PGM key again.
- If it is showing MANUAL SCROLL than change it to AUTO and then make it MANUAL
SCROLL.

MANUAL SCROLL

- In MANUAL SCROLL, SHIFT, UP or DOWN Key will work as mentioned in 6.2.

- To toggle SCROLL mode i.e. Auto to Manual and Manual to Auto, press SHIFT key for 5
seconds, it will not get programmed, so till MFT gets Power off it will remain in that mode.
- To enter in to AUTO SCROLL go into the Programming mode and then change the
selection from MANUAL SCROLL to AUTO SCROLL.
- In this mode „:‟ on every RUN MODE page will blink for indicate MANUAL SCROLL.

7.6 RESET REGS

In this mode you can reset energy registers. There are six types of registers like: Active [Im] for Active
Import Energy, Active [Ex] for Active Export Energy, Reactive [Im] for Reactive Import Energy,
Reactive [Ex] for Reactive Export Energy, Apparent for Apparent Energy and at the end one option is
given to reset all these registers at the same time. It is indicated as RST ALL REG.

At a same time only two registers can be shown. For other registers, there is an indication of ▼ or ▲.
So you can set arrow by using UP and DOWN key. In above screen first two registers are shown,
having ▼ indication .i.e. these shown registers are up the list. Now suppose you are pressing DOWN
key up to arrow is for Reactive [Im]. Now press DOWN key only once, screen will be shown like
below:

Here it is showing both UP indication for some registers which are at upside and DOWN indication for
some registers which are at down side. Now suppose you are pressing DOWN key up to arrow is for
Apparent and RESET registers. Now press DOWN key only once, screen will be shown like below:

So you can set arrow as per this and press PGM key to enter „RST ALL REG.‟ where screen shows
like below:

Here is the confirmation that whether you are sure or not to erase energy data to reset it. If you set
arrow before YES and pressed PGM, all registers (phase wise plus total) of this kind, energy will start
from zero and you will come back one step where you entered, so you can go for another. If you set
arrow before NO and pressed PGM key, you will come back one step where you entered without any
reset. By this way you can reset any register.

8. MODBUS DETAILS

RS – 485 interface is provided to communicate with the MFT. The interface is available at the
terminals. (Refer Wiring Details)

When controllers are setup to communicate on a Modbus network using RTU (Remote Terminal Unit)
mode, each 8–bit byte in a message contains two 4–bit Hexadecimal characters. The main advantage
of this mode is that, it‟s greater Character density allows better data throughput than ASCII for the
same baud rate.
Use only following function codes for data read/write purpose

CODE MEANING ACTION

03 Read holding registers Obtains current binary value in one
or more holding registers.
04 Read Input registers Obtains current binary value in one
or more Input registers.
06 Preset single register Place a specific binary value into a
holding register.
16 Preset multiple register Place a specific binary value into a
multiple holding register.

Note 1: For writing to this Register Address use Function code 16 and select data type Swapped
float. Also take care measurand range low should not equal or greater than measurand range High.

Note 2: Maximum CT & PT Ratio value is 9999999 i.e. maximum values is 9999.999 & minimum
value is 1000 i.e. 1.000
For entering CT and Pt ratio refer the below example.
Example:
For entering CTR value 1234.567, convert 1234567 in to hexadecimal i.e. 2D687.
Now enter lower four byte (D687) at 40111 and higher four byte (0012) at 40110 addresses
respectively.

Note 3: If data type is long in MFT then set Swapped long in Modbus master.
If data type is float MFT then set Swapped Float in Modbus master.

Note 4: ignore address which is not mentioned in the memory map as they are useful in 3P4W
mode, do proper wiring as stated in Wiring detail section. Also Check the AO Parameters as mapping
and Availability of particular Parameter is different for 3p4w and 3p3w; see Table 7 for more detail.

Note 5: Energy will be in Kilo for float value and for Long data type multiply with constant stated to
get energy in Kilo unit.

Note 6: For changing the O/P type one also need to change the J2,J3,J5,J6,J7,J8 jumper on AO
card and J8,J9 on Ethernet Card. put female jumper between pin 1&2 for current(4-20mA) o/p and
2&3 for Voltage o/p(0-10V).

8.4 Exception Responses

Exception response is a notification of an error. The exception response codes are listed in the table
below. When a slave detects one of these errors, it sends a response to the master consisting of
slave address, function code, error code and error check field.
To indicate that the response is a notification of an error, the high order bit of the function code is set
to 1.
CODE NAME MEANING
01 Illegal Function The message function received is not an
allowable action for slave.
02 Illegal Data Address The address referenced in the data field is not
an allowable address for the addressed slave
location.
03 Illegal Data Value The value referenced in the data field is not
allowable in the addressed slave location.
06 Slave Device Busy The slave is engaged in processing a program
command. The master should retransmit the
message later when slave is free.

Example

Query Message
SLAVE FUNCTION H.O L.O H.O NO L.O NO ERROR ERROR
ADDR CODE START START OF REG OF REG CHECK CHECK
ADDR ADDR FIELD FIELD
0x0A 0x01 0x00 0x24 0x00 0x02 0xFC 0xBB
The query requests the status of input 0036 in slave no. 10. Since the function is an invalid function
for 2160-A, so the following error response will be generated.

Response Message
SLAVE FUNCTION EXCEPTION ERROR ERROR
ADDR CODE CODE CHECK CHECK
0x0A 0x81 0x01 0xF0 0x52

The function field is the original function code with the high order bit set and exception code 01
indicates an illegal function field.
When slave device that is power meter is in the PROGRAM mode, a busy state is transmitted
indicating that slave device is busy and the master should retransmit the message later when
the slave is free. So here exception code 0x06 is transmitted. Response message is shown
below.

8.4.1 Read Holding Register (Function Code 03)

To get value of configuration parameters (CT Ratio, PT Ratio, Pls/KWh, Baud, Slave address etc.)
and Analogue Measurement range parameters, you have to use function code 03. Here the
addressing allows to 8 registers (2- words) and 41 registers (Words) to be obtained at each request.

8.4.2 Preset Single Register (Function Code 06)

Function (06) will overwrite controller memory.

Function (06) allows the user to modify the contents of a holding register for configuration parameter.
The values are provided in binary, up to the maximum capacity of the controller and unused higher
bits must be set to zero.

Example

This example will set the CT Ratio value in slave number 17. Here CT Ratio and PT ratio requires 2
integer register for each. So you should write higher integer and lower integer value to get whole
Ratio value. Suppose you want to write CT RATIO = 5,then you have to take 5000 to write because in
unit side this 5000 will be divided by 1000 i.e. you will get 5.Now Hex value of 5000 is 0x1388,so you
will take 0x00 for higher integer register and 0x1388 for lower integer register. The address of CT
Higher integer is 0x6D and value to be programmed is 0x0000.

Similarly you can do for lower integer and also for PT RATIO. The normal response to a preset single
register request is to transmit the query message after the register has been altered,

If the value is an illegal value then the response message will be an exception response (Error
Message). For the details of maximum and minimum values of any parameter refer to manual.

8.4.3 Preset multiple Register (Function Code 16)

Function (16) will overwrite controller memory.

Function (16) allows the user to modify the contents of a multiple holding register for configuration
parameter. The values are provided in binary, up to the maximum capacity of the controller and
unused higher bits must be set to zero.

Example
This example will set the Analog channel measurand Low value in slave number 17. Select Data type
Swapped float in PC based modbus software. Write Value 100.0 in this register

Query Message
SLAVE FUNC H.O L.O NO. NO. NO. DAT DATA ERRO ERRO

Similarly you can write more than one float register at a time with this Function code.

Response Message

If the value is an illegal value then the response message will be an exception response (Error
Message). For the details of maximum and minimum values of any parameter refer to manual.

respectively.

Note 3: If data type is long in MFT then set Swapped long in Modbus master.
If data type is float MFT then set Swapped Float in Modbus master.

Note 4: ignore address which is not mentioned in the memory map as they are useful in 3P4W
mode, do proper wiring as stated in Wiring detail section. Also Check the AO Parameters as mapping
and Availability of particular Parameter is different for 3p4w and 3p3w; see Table 7 for more detail.

Note 5: Energy will be in Kilo for float value and for Long data type multiply with constant stated to
get energy in Kilo unit.

Note 6: For changing the O/P type one also need to change the J2,J3,J5,J6,J7,J8 jumper on AO
card and J8,J9 on Ethernet Card. put female jumper between pin 1&2 for current(4-20mA) o/p and

10. IMPORTANT NOTES

Before starting Installed transducer, go through these notes:

 Confirm the connection configuration

 Confirm that all energy parameters are going to start from zero, if not, make them zero.
 Vrated and Irated should be set equal to PT secondary P-N Voltage and CT secondary Current
Respectively.
 Apply proper CT – PT Ratio as per requirement, which must pass the below mathematical
conditions for 3P3W and 3P4W.

For 3P4W
3x1.2xVratedx1.2xIratedx CT Ratio x PT Ratio < 200, 00, 00,000

For 3P3W
√3x1.2x√3xVratedx1.2xIratedx CT Ratio x PT Ratio < 200, 00, 00,000

 Select Energy type for LED Blinking as per your requirement.

 Confirm that transducer is calibrated.
 For Serial communication, MODBUS-RTU, RS485, you will get float/long data from measurement.
 Factory set Password to access the Program mode is 0001.
 Some parameters in configuration are only for factory purposes so please don‟t disturb these
parameters like Analog Output type.
 For 3p3w system, modbus communication, follow the address map for 3p3w.Program mode will be
same.

 For Front Blinking LED, select energy type (i.e.-import/KWh-export/KVARh-Import/KVARh-

Export/KVAh/MWh-Import/MWh-Export/MVARh-Import/MVARh-Export/MVAh) as per your
requirement using Program mode, from OUTPUT and set the value of constant. But here you can get
maximum output pulse frequency (& LED Blinking rate) up to 50 msec. so whenever you are using
this feature; you should set value of Meter-Constant such a way so it will not cross the limit of 50 ms
pulse frequency.

 As pulse frequency is 50 msec, i.e. in one second maximum 20 pulses can be obtained, hence in
one hour maximum 72000 pulses can be obtained.
Total no of impulses/second can be calculated as below
(Vrate * Irate * CTR * PTR * Pulse Constant in Wh)/3600 <= 20.
 Example: transducer specification
 V rated = 240V, I rated = 5A, CT ratio = 40 and PT ratio = 100,
 Above transducer can consume maximum of 4.8MWatt.
I.e. For 3600 pulses/KWh [3.6 pulses/Wh], it will generate 4800 pulses/sec as per above
equation, [240*5*40*100*3.6/3600 = 4800] so it will not work for the transducer as it is more
than 20 pulses/sec
I.e. For 2000 pulses/MWh [0.002 pulses/Wh], it will generate 2.666 pulses/sec as per above
equation, [240*5*40*100*0.002/3600 = 2.66] so it will work for the transducer as it is less than
20 pulses/sec
This is for single phase only, in case of three phases, energy will be multiplied by three in
3p4w and hence pulses should be calculated for three phase energy.

 When data type selected for modbus is LONG, Total apparent Energy will overflow from 400GVAhr
the transducer will auto reset all energy parameter. This includes Active import and export energy,
Reactive Import and Export energy and apparent energy. Such condition of overflow occurrence is
depending on CT Ration and PT ratio.
 Example:
For 110V V rated, and 1 A I rated MFT is set for 100A and 66KV line with CT Ratio of 100 and PT
Ratio of 600.
 Energy consumed per hour will be 66kV X 100Amps = 6600KVAHr.
 Time to overflow in Hr. = 400GVAhr / 6600KvaHr = 60606 Hr
 Days = 60606 /24 = 2525 Days

 Years = 2525 / 365 = 6.91 Years / Total of Three Phase.

 User has to manually reset all the energy parameter when installing the transducer first time.
 Resolution of the parameter on the Modbus when data is transmitted in LONG format is different
and it is mention in modbus map.
 Provide uniform air flow for better cooling of transducers, inside the panels. This is most
important when more than 10 units installed side by side in same panel.

UNIT NOT TURNING ON

The problem can be bad connection / power of incorrect rating.
First check, power on terminal of the instrument itself if it is not present then the fault is in power
chord.
One must take care while dealing with Power wirings because it may
create electrical shock.

UNSTABLE READING
Check for loose connections.
First verify that all conventional instrumentation norms have been followed for wiring. Try using
shielded cable for sensor input.
Check for ripple on power supplies of Input section and Output sections. If power supplies have
ripples, input voltage may be low or there is some failure on power supply card.
Please note that this is an isolator, and the Input and Output sections are
electrically isolated from each other. Therefore, any power supply
measurements should be done with respect to proper grounds.

OUTPUT NOT MATCHING WITH THE EXPECTED VALUE

It is a normal tendency to doubt the instrument performance, when the Output is not matching the
expected value. Kindly make sure that the output is really incorrect with respect to input signal, before
attempting any re-calibration.
Account for measuring instrument‟s inaccuracies, lead errors and calibration errors. Care must be
taken when measuring Output signal.

An ordinary 3½ digit multimeter is used it can show reading which deviates from what the instrument
is showing as the accuracy of the multimeter may not be as good as the that of the instrument. So use
calibrating instrument of accuracy better than 0.1% for purpose of calibration.
If the signal is still found to be out of tolerance, calibration should be attempted as described in the
next section.

VAGUE READING
The reason can be reverse input connections.
