AH08 20 turn multi-wrap coil
AH09 60 turn multi-wrap coil
INSTALLATION
1. Disconnect power to the conductors to be monitored before beginning
installation. Do not install the CTs before all connections are made.
2. Select the appropriate multi-turn coil for your application: use the AH08 for
connection to a 100A CT; use the AH09 for connection to a 300A CT.
3. Select CTs with 5A outputs and a current rating suitable for the conductor to be
monitored (e.g. 5000A:5A).
4. Wire CTs to the controller or energy meter. Place an AH08/AH09 coil through each
CT (see Wiring section, page 2).
5. Attach the AH08/AH09 terminals to the secondaries of the 5A CTs.
6. Install the 5A CTs around the primary conductors.

OPERATION
The AH08 and AH09 multi-turn coils are intended for use in applications where the
monitored load exceeds the 2400A rating of power meters. A suitable 5A current
transformer (CT) is applied to the primary, high-current conductor. The AH08/AH09
then amplifies this 0-5A signal for accurate sensing by a power meter.
The AH08 is a 20-turn coil suitable for 100A meters, such as the 100A Enercept
H8036-0100-2. The AH09 is a 60-turn coil suitable for 300A meters, such as the 300A
Enercept H8036-0300-2 or the H81xx Commercial Energy Meter.
CALCULATIONS
To correctly interpret data reported by the power meter, use a data multiplier:
Data multiplier = Primary current on the 5A transformer / current rating of the meter
Actual current = data multiplier * meter reading
Example: Using an Enercept 100A meter and AH08 20-turn coil to monitor a 5000A
conductor produces a meter reading of 40A.
multiplier = 5000A / 100A = 50
actual current = 50 * 40A = 2000A
