CURRENT CHANNEL INPUT
ꢀ
The voltage outputs from the current transducers are connected to the BL6502A here. As Figure6
shows that channel V1 has two voltage inputs, namely V1A and V1B. These inputs are fully
differential with respect to V1N. However, at any one time, only one is selected to perform the
power calculation.

Current Channels
The analog inputs V1A, V1B and V1N have same maximum signal level restrictions as V2P and
V2N. However, Channel 1 has a programmable gain amplifier (PGA) with user-selectable gains of
1, 2, 8, or 16. These gains facilitate easy transducer interfacing. Figure illustrates the maximum
signal levels on V1A, V1B, and V1N. The maximum differential voltage is ±660 mV divided by
the gain selection. Again, the differential voltage signal on the inputs must be referenced to a
common mode, e.g., GND. The maximum common-mode signal is ±100 mV.
Figure7 shows a typical connection diagram for Channel V1. Here the analog inputs are being
used to monitor both the phase and neutral currents. Because of the large potential difference
between the phase and neutral, two CTs (current transformers) must be used to provide the
isolation. The CT turns ratio and burden resistor (Rb) are selected to give a peak differential
voltage of ±660 mV/gain.
