Leviton 70N48 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do CTs come with the Leviton 70N48 branch circuit monitor?
No. The 70N48 ships as the meter board only, with no current transformers included, so you order CTs separately based on your breaker sizes. It accepts solid core, split core and Rogowski coil CTs, and the measurable range runs 5 A to 4000 A depending on which CT you pair with it. Terminals for the CT wiring use removable connectors for easier access during install.
2) Does the Leviton 70N48 come with an enclosure or a display?
Neither. The 70N48 is the embedded panel-mount version: no enclosure and no display. It is meant to be installed inside a panelboard or an existing electrical enclosure you provide, and read over the network rather than at the board. Series 7000 is also offered in versions with a display, so if someone needs a local readout at the panel, the no-display 70N48 is the wrong part number.
3) How many circuits will one Leviton Series 7000 monitor cover in a panelboard?
One 70N48 covers a full 42-breaker panelboard plus the mains, 48 circuits total, using 48 independent user-defined inputs. It handles any mix of 1-, 2- and 3-pole breaker positions and rolls those up into multi-phase totals, so you do not have to lay out the panel around the meter. Two independent sets of reference voltage inputs let it monitor more than one system at the same time.
4) Will the Leviton 70N48 talk to my building automation system?
Yes. The 70N48 supports ModBus/RTU, ModBus/TCP, BACnet MS/TP and BACnet/IP, which covers both serial and Ethernet integration into most BAS and energy management front ends. It reports volts, amps, power, demand and energy per circuit, and has user-configurable alarm thresholds you can register against for load management.
5) The Leviton 70N48 branch circuit monitor ships without an enclosure - what kind of housing do you pair it with?
The 70N48 is an embedded panel mount board with no enclosure, so it needs either an existing panelboard cavity or a separate housing supplied on the job. Purpose-built metering housings such as the Square D EM3570ENC, a NEMA 4X enclosure built for PowerLogic EM357x meters, show the pattern, while general-purpose steel boxes such as the Rittal WM Series single-door wall-mount carbon steel enclosure or the Rittal AX compact control cabinet in IP66/NEMA 12 are the industrial-style route. Confirm the internal depth and mounting pattern against the 70N48 board footprint before committing, since none of these housings is factory-matched to the Leviton board.
6) Is the Square D EM3570ENC a substitute for the Leviton 70N48?
No. The EM3570ENC is an enclosure only - a NEMA 4X housing for PowerLogic EM357x meters - and contains no metering electronics. The Leviton 70N48 is the measuring device itself: a branch circuit monitor with 48 independent user-defined inputs, line powered from 90 to 600 VAC phase-to-phase, reporting volts, amps, power, demand and energy per circuit over ModBus/RTU, ModBus/TCP, BACnet MS/TP or BACnet/IP. They sit on opposite sides of the same installation rather than replacing each other.
7) What else do I need to order with the Leviton 70N48 besides a housing?
The 70N48 is supplied as meter only with no CTs included, so current transformers are a separate line item - it accepts solid core, split core and Rogowski Coil CTs across a 5 A to 4000 A range. Enclosure-side items such as the Rittal 1034250-11 WM Series carbon steel wall-mount enclosure or the Square D EM3570ENC metering enclosure cover the housing, but neither carries CTs either. Plan the order as three parts: the 70N48 board, the CT set sized to your breaker positions, and the housing.
8) Can I install the Leviton 70N48 outdoors or in a wet location?
No. The 70N48 is configured for indoor use and ships without any enclosure, so it has no environmental rating of its own. Mounting it outdoors means putting it inside a rated enclosure you supply. If the meter is going outdoors, look at a rated housing such as the Square D EM3570ENC NEMA 4X meter enclosure or an ABB Q-Line NEMA 3R enclosure rather than trying to weatherproof the board itself.
9) What is the difference between a branch circuit monitor like the 70N48 and just adding a meter enclosure?
They are not substitutes. The Leviton 70N48 is the metering electronics, a branch circuit monitor that measures each of 48 circuits and reports them over ModBus or BACnet. Products like the Rittal WM Series wall-mount enclosure or the ABB CR Series industrial housing are empty boxes: they give you a place to mount equipment, nothing more. If you need per-circuit energy data you need the monitor; if you need somewhere to put it, you need the enclosure too.
10) Is the Leviton Series 7000 accurate enough for tenant billing and submetering?
The Series 7000 meets ANSI and IEC metering system accuracy requirements, and that accuracy claim covers the branch CTs as part of the system, not just the meter board. That system-level basis matters for submetering, since CT error is usually where a billing-grade claim falls apart.
11) Can one Leviton 70N48 monitor two different electrical systems at once?
Yes, within limits. It has two independent sets of reference voltage inputs, so it can meter circuits fed from two different sources or voltage references at the same time across its 48 inputs. Phase orientation and the number of circuits are selectable in configuration, which is what lets you split the input bank between the two systems.
12) Can an ABB Q-Line NEMA 3R 225A enclosure be used to house the Leviton 70N48 outdoors?
The 70N48 is specified for indoor configuration, so an outdoor-rated box does not change what the monitor is rated for. The ABB TQD225R is a Q-Line NEMA 3R 225A enclosure, a breaker-style housing rather than a metering cavity, and the ABB CR Series industrial electrical enclosure housing is likewise a general-purpose box. For a 70N48 installation, keep the board in a conditioned indoor location and use the housing only to satisfy the mechanical mounting.
13) We are mounting metering gear in a 19-inch rack - does the Rittal FlatBox work for the Leviton 70N48?
The Rittal 7507110 FlatBox is a 19-inch 9U wall-mount carbon steel enclosure, built around rack-mount rails rather than around a meter board. The Leviton 70N48 is an embedded panel mount device, so it fits a panel cutout or a flat mounting plate, not rack rails. If the metering has to live near rack-mounted network gear for the ModBus/TCP or BACnet/IP connection, a flat-plate box such as a Rittal WM Series NEMA 3R one-door wall mount enclosure is the closer mechanical match for the board itself.
14) Where do I find wiring and configuration details for the Leviton 70N48?
Leviton publishes technical information for the 70N48 and the rest of Series 7000, covering CT wiring at the removable terminal connectors, phase orientation setup and circuit count configuration. Have it in hand before the panel is opened, since input assignment is user-defined and needs to match how the breakers are actually populated.
