The RCM Inline Meter is a differential current meter for use in IT racks. The differential current is meas-
ured at the infeed, i.e. for the entire IT rack. Other functions of the RCM Inline Meter include:
– Energy measurement at the infeed of each phase, i.e. the power requirements for an entire IT rack;
no switching function; with display and network interface.
3.2 Intended use
The RCM Inline Meter is used to measure differential current and therefore monitor electrically earthed
power supplies in IT racks, and is designed for permanent installation in IT racks. It must not be used
at locations where children may be present and is envisaged for use only in a restricted access area
(e.g. lockable rack).
