    New Zealand. Intended use The Fronius Smart Meter IP is a fixed piece of equipment for public grids of TN/TT systems and may only be used to measure loads and self-consumption. The Fronius Smart Meter IP is required for systems with a battery storage system and/or a Fronius Ohmpilot installed for communication between the individual components.

    Cabling WARNING! Danger from live mains voltage inputs An electric shock can be fatal. ▶ Switch off the power supply be- fore connecting the mains voltage inputs. Permissible conductor cross-section of AC terminals: Wire: 1.5 - 4 mm² Each live conductor must be connected to the AC terminals as shown in the fig- ures below.
  • Page 21: Suitable Current Transformers

    It is recommended to use Fronius CT current transformers (item numbers transformers 41,0010,0104 / 41,0010,0105 / 41,0010,0232). To ensure smooth operation of the Fronius Smart Meter IP and accurate measurement results, all connected current transformers must meet these requirements: The current transformer must generate 333 mV at nominal current. The nominal current of the current transformers is listed in the data sheet for the current transformer.
  • Page 22: Connecting The Current Transformers

    Note down the nominal current of the current transformer for each meter. These values will be required for commissioning. Attach the current transformers to the conductor to be measured and con- nect the current transformer cables to the Fronius Smart Meter IP. WARNING! Danger from mains voltage An electric shock can be fatal.
