Branch Circuit Monitors (30 - 198 CTs)

Panel monitors are available in a range of enclosures, and the wiring approach required can vary depending on the enclosure, the current transformer, and the equipment to be monitored. Panel monitoring systems are intended to be installed by qualified personnel only. 

Packet Power’s  branch circuit wireless devices support 30 to 198 CTs and can monitor panelboards, RPPs and PDUs from any vendor. Our largest devices can monitor four 42/48-pole side by side panels. 

Monitors are built to customer specifications and ship fully configured for:

• Voltage source, type, quantity, lead color and lead length

• CT rating, quantity

• CT lead type -- flexible wire harnesses or loose leads if desired

• Wire exit location

• Overcurrent protection

• Measurement type - full power or current-only

Go to Multi-Circuit Monitoring (9-72 CTs) for information about Packet Power’s multi-circuit monitoring solutions for input feeds, select circuits on panelboards, existing switchgear, HVAC, generators and other high energy loads.

Packet Power offers a wide range of split-core and solid-core Current Transformers (CTs) as well as flexible Rogowski coil sensors. View our list of Current Transformers.
