4.2.1 Connecting the TIDA-010243 to the Metering Test Equipment

The design has support for 3-phase + Neutral configuration with current transformers (CT). AC voltages and currents can be applied to the board for testing purposes at these points:

  • Terminal blocks J1, J2, and J3, correspond to the line voltage connections for Phases A, B, and C, respectively. These terminal blocks have two positions.
  • Terminal blocks J4, J5, and J6 correspond to the current inputs after the sensors for Phases A, B, and C, respectively. These are three-position terminal blocks but only the leftmost and rightmost positions are used. The center position, which is connected to GND, is not connected to the CT. Select the applied current to the input of the CT so that the current does not exceed 100A. In addition, before performing any test, verify that this terminal block is securely connected to both output leads of the CT.
  • Terminal block J15 corresponds to the current input after the sensor for the Neutral line. This terminal block is a three-position terminal block but only the leftmost and rightmost positions are used. The center position, which is connected to GND, is not connected to the CT. Select the applied current to the input of the CT so that the current does not exceed 100A. In addition, before performing any test, verify that this terminal block is securely connected to both output leads of the CT.
Figure 4-2 and Figure 4-3 show the various test setup connections required for the reference design to function properly for the one-voltage configuration.
