Quick installation Guide  
for SINUS Energy Meters 
 
SINUS 85 S0 / M-Bus / Modbus 
 
 
Installation notes for SINUS Energy Meters 
 
Always take note of the specications on 
the type label!  
 
For an energy meter with the voltage specications 
3x230/400V on type label please note the following values: 
 
Reference voltage  Un  =  3x230/400V 
(3-phase four-wire alternating current system) 
 
For an energy meter with the current specications 0,25-5(85) 
A on type label please note the following values: 
 
Initial current  Ist
  =    0,02 A 
Minimal current  Imin  =    0,25 A 
Suppressed  
leakage current  Itr  =    0,5 A 
Reference current  Iref  =    5 A 
Maximal current  Imax  =    85 A   
with symmetrically loaded phases. 
 
Always follow the specications for the measurement 
operating requirements on the type label.  
As pre-fuse please install only in the measurement voltage 
circuits fuses with max. 80   A.
 
The used wires have to be chosen regarding to current 
density and installation requirements, so that the conductors 
at all time don’t heat up to more than +55°C closer than 20cm 
tot he energy meter. The load capacity of wires and cables is 
dened in DIN VDE 0298-  4.
 
The size of the curre -, voltage- and neutral terminals is for nt
min 2,5 mm² and max 25 mm². 
 
For the screws use a screwdriver type SL for slotted screws 
with a size of 5,5mm x 1,0mm. The M5 terminal-screws 
should be tightened with a torque of 2,5 Nm. 
 
The size of the additional terminals is for min 0,25 mm² and 
max 1,5 mm². 
 
For the screws use a screwdriver type SL for slottet screws 
with a size of 3,5mm x 0,6mm. The M5 terminal-screws 
should be tightened with a torque of 0,4 Nm. 
 
Wires with splitted core should end in a wire termination. The 
torques for screws at clamping units are dened in DIN EN 
60999 1.-  
 
Further important information for use af this device are in the 
manual (delivered with the device).
