Step 5: Installing Main current
transformers
The Main CTs will attach to the incoming live mains. They should not be used on
neutral lines. They will be installed differently depending upon whether or not the
home has solar and how that solar system is connected to the electrical system. The
Inhab Energy will be installed differently depending on whether the solar is a break-
er-fed or a line-side tap installation. The Main CTs that connect to the mains will
provide net metering out of the box — displaying electricity used minus
electricity produced. These installations are covered in the subsequent pages. To
monitor electricity used and electricity produced separately, Branch CTs will be used
as described in Step 8.
• Step 5(a): No solar Main CT
• Step 5(b): Breaker-fed solar Main CT
• Step 5(c): Line-side tap solar Main CT
Note for Canadian Market: If a service entrance barrier is installed, it may be
necessary to temporarily remove barrier to install Main CTs.

24 INHAB™ ENERGY INSTALLATION GUIDE
Step 8 (continued): A note
about multi-pole breakers
If 2- or 3-pole breakers are to be monitored, we recommended that one CT be used
for on each pole; however, to conserve the number of CTs, a single CT can be used.
To use a single CT, clasp the clamp around either one of the non-neutral leads
coming off the breaker (it doesn’t matter which). When only one CT is used, input a
circuit multiplier in the app to double or triple the reading by entering a “2” or “3”.
Using a single CT to monitor a multi-pole breaker does not accurately monitor
unbalanced loads.
Most accurate - Attach one
branch sensor on each leg of
the breaker
Less accurate - Attach one
branch sensor on a single leg
and use an app multipler.

INHAB™ ENERGY INSTALLATION GUIDE 25
Step 8 (continued):
A note about solar monitoring
For the Inhab Energy to be able to calculate how much energy from the system is
going to and from the grid, Branch CTs will need to be connected to the incoming
leads from the inverter regardless of whether the solar is a breaker-fed or a line-side
tap installation. CTs installation orientation is reversed for solar wires therefore
the Breaker W imprint on the bottom of the CTs should point towards the solar
inverter. Specify the circuits monitored by these CTs as ‘ Solar/Generation’ in the
app. If only one CT is used, input a circuit multiplier in the app to double or triple
the reading by entering a “2” or “3”.

AVERTISSEMENT
• Ne placez pas l’Siemens Inhab Energy de manière à ce qu’il soit
dicile d’actionner des dispositifs de déconnexion ou des disjoncteurs.
• N’utilisez pas d’accessoires tiers ou Current Transformateurs (TC)
avec l’Siemens Inhab Energy. Le Inhab Energy et les CT sont
personnalisés et intégrés. Les accessoires tiers ou les TC peuvent
compromettre l’exactitude des données et la sécurité de
l’équipement.
• Les transformateurs de courant ne peuvent pas être installés dans
des équipements où ils dépassent 75 % de l’espace de câblage de
toute section transversale de l’équipement.
• Restreindre l’installation des transformateurs de courant dans une
zone où cela obstruerait les ouvertures de ventilation.
• Restreindre l’installation des transformateurs de courant dans une
zone d’évacuation d’arc du disjoncteur. N’installez pas le moniteur
d’énergie Siemens Inhab Energy dans une zone où les gaz d’échap
pement de la ventilation de l’arc du disjoncteur pourraient être redi
rigés à la suite de l’installation d’un équipement de sous-mesure.
• L’Siemens Inhab Energy n’est pas adapté aux méthodes de câblage
de classe 2 et n’est pas destiné à être connecté à un équipement de
classe 2. (Se référer à NEC 2023, l’article 725.)
• Sécurisez les transformateurs de courant et acheminez les
conducteurs de manière à ce qu’ils n’entrent pas directement en
contact avec les bornes sous tension ou les bus.
• L’Siemens Inhab Energy ne doit pas être monté à moins de 50,8
mm (2 pouces) de toute pièce sous tension, y compris les
conducteurs primaires, les bornes primaires et les cosses primaires ;
mais à l’exclusion des câbles isolés. Il est acceptable que le Inhab
Energy soit monté sur le boîtier du panneau mis à la terre et près
des barres omnibus neutres/terre. Le Inhab Energy utilise un
câblage de classe I permettant à ses fils de coexister en toute
sécurité avec tous les autres fils du panneau.
• Si le moniteur d’énergie Siemens Inhab Energy est fixé au boîtier, il
ne doit pas entrer en contact avec l’isolation intérieure du panneau,
telle que le matériau qui sépare les barres omnibus GND et LIVE.
• Les dispositions de montage du moniteur d’énergie Siemens Inhab
Energy ne doivent être fixées à aucune pièce sous tension.
• Les connexions de détection de tension et d’alimentation électrique
à la tension primaire doivent être protégées contre les surintensités
par le biais d’une connexion à un disjoncteur/MCB.
Measurement categories are defined by the CE and UL safety standard IEC 61010-1
and are used to indicate the ability of an instrument (like the Inhab Energy Monitor)
to withstand voltage spikes without posing a shock hazard to the operator. An
instrument should only be used at or below its rated measurement category and
voltage. For example, the Inhab Energy Monitor is CAT III rated and can be used to
monitor CAT I, CAT II, and CAT III circuits.
CAT III: This category is for measurements performed on equipment permanently
installed in the building. Examples are measurements on motor control centers,
circuit-breaker panels, junction boxes, switches, lighting fixtures, and wiring,
including cables, bus-bars, and equipment for industrial use and some other
equipment, for example, stationary motors with permanent connections to the
electrical distribution system.
There are situations where the Inhab Energy Monitor needs to monitor the main
service entrance, which is classified as CAT IV. In this situation, the Inhab Energy
voltage inputs (green screw terminal block) must be connected in a breaker panel
or panel board, downstream of a the main disconnect, breaker, or fuses. The line
voltages at this location will be essentially identical to the voltages measured at the
main disconnect, so the Inhab Energy’s measurements will be accurate.
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS-247 standard.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including
