Can the WattNode® Pulse meter WNB-3Y-208-P Option Hz=600 be used on a 60 Hz system?

Yes, All WattNode meters measure 50/60 Hz electrical systems, regardless of the full-scale pulse output frequency specified with Option Hz=xxx (where xxx can be any value from 0.01 Hz up to 600 Hz).

The Option Hz=600 refers to the full-scale pulse output frequency of the WattNode meter, so if the meter is measuring full-scale power, you would see 600 pulses per second on the pulse output terminal. The standard full-scale pulse output frequency of the pulse WattNode meter is 4 Hz, meaning you would see four pulses per second at full-scale power.
