For blackout protection (house connection monitoring),
Solar Pure Mode
,
Solar Plus
Mode
or
Lock Mode
, a
KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter
with activated convenience func-
tions is required; this is coupled to the ENECTOR via RS485.
For simple house connection monitoring, a KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter can be used
without activated convenience functions.
NOTE
A list of approved energy meters and their purpose is available in the download area for
the product on our homepage at

Proceed as follows to install and connect an energy meter:
1.
Install the energy meter at the grid connection point in the house grid. Follow the in-
stallation instructions for the energy meter
2.
Route the communication cable between the wallbox and energy meter.
DANGER
Risk of death due to electrical shock and discharge!
If the cable is not kept reliably separate from active electrical equipment, touchable parts
may be live. As a result, people may be seriously injured or killed by electric shock.
When routing and connecting the cable, keep it reliably separate from active electrical
equipment.
NOTE
Use a rigid mains cable of at least CAT6, or preferably CAT7 (to avoid interference) with a
cross-section of at least 0.5 mm².
3.
Use a suitable to tool to cut the required cable inlet out of the wallbox. Cable inlets are
located on the rear, bottom and top.
4.
Insert the appropriate membrane cable entry (included in the scope of delivery) into
the respective cable inlet.
For cable inlet on the top or bottom:
Use membrane cable entries with strain relief.
