Note : What is the meter ID? You can find the S/N on the meter house. As picture 1-1 The last The last two numbers is the meter’s ID address. (But if the last two numbers are “00”, then use “100” as meter ID address) For example: if the S/N number is 15023876, then the meter ID is 76 If the S/N number is 15033800, the the meter ID is 100.
PMAC211 Multi-channel power meter can be used for monitoring low voltage electronic parameter of multi circuits, energy consumption and alarm for parameter. One PMAC211 can maximum monitor 4 three phase circuit, small size to save space, RS485 port to communication, suitable for low voltage power distribution system and energy efficiency management etc..applications.
