Installation Instructions

Cat. No. 193-EC_ZZ current monitoring relays are designed to be installed in
cat. no. 193-ECPM2 panel mount adapters and connected to separately mounted
current transformers. For panel mount adapter assembly, refer to the instructions
included with the panel mount adapter.The EC4 Current Monitoring Relay must
be mounted a distance equal to or greater than six times the cable diameter
(including insulation) from the nearest current-carrying conductor or current
transformer. For applications employing multiple conductors per phase, the
diameter of each cable should be added and multiplied by six to determine the
proper placement distance for the EC4 Current Monitoring Relay.

ATTENTION: The improper selection of a current transformer can
result in the EC4 Current Monitoring Relay reporting inaccurate
motor operational data, and possible motor damage. The selected
current transformer must be rated for protective relaying
applications.

ATTENTION: Placement of the EC4 Current Monitoring Relay
closer than the recommended distance of six times the cable
diameter may compromise its current reporting and protection
capabilities.
