Identify the panel reading to be checked
Send the meter nameplate and panel tag along with the quantities your team reads. Include the transformer ratios shown on the metering schedule if the panel uses external current or voltage transformers. State whether the request concerns the meter alone or the reading from the installed arrangement. Ask the site electrical lead when the panel can be released for the agreed work.
Record who holds the portable tester
For a clamp meter, record the current ranges used, its asset number and any separate sensor travelling in the case. If stores is outside the cluster plot, send the actual pickup address and the person who can sign the release. A contractor with testers on loan from an IMT can use the township directory to identify their return destination.
Specify the meter reading used by the acceptance sheet
An energy meter can show accumulated energy, instantaneous power and individual phase readings. Mark the quantities required by the acceptance procedure and give the operating combinations of voltage, current and phase where specified. Include pulse-output details if the reported value will be derived from pulses. A broad request for a panel-meter check can otherwise leave the intended result unclear.
Keep the installed transformer ratios separate from the portable tester's sensor settings. Copy them from the approved equipment record and identify any mismatch already observed by the site team. The responsible electrical engineer can then discuss the proposed measurement and access arrangements with RTS before a visit is confirmed.
