BASIC PURPOSE
The HomeGuard residual capacity meter is a
device primarily used in the VoltGuard system
as the information source for regulating
the charging current of the electric vehicle
charging station. The meter is designed to
be connected directly to the power supply
circuit either next to the distribution meter
or into the main switchboard of the building.
It is serially connected after the distribution
meter and the input circuit breaker ensuring
that the measured values are the same as
the values measured by the electricity meter
and evaluated by the input circuit breaker trip
circuit.
The main function of a residual capacity meter
is, of course, to measure the flowing current
with sufficient accuracy and to compare it with
the set limit. The comparison result is then
sent in pre-defined periods through the RS485
communication bus. The meter can send the
differences between the measured and pre-set
values as well as the current absolute values measured on all three phases.
