9. Electricity measuring modules
Operation
The measuring module measures the electrical current in one or several conductors via the current clamps supplied. The
module measures the voltage of the phase to be measured via the connection terminals. By measuring both electrical
current and voltage, the installation can accurately assess how much electricity is consumed or produced in the home.
All values measured are sent to the Niko Home Control installation.
The eco-display shows the total electricity consumption and the electricity production, if applicable. A detailed overview of
these data can be requested via the touchscreen, a smartphone or the Niko Home Control energy software.
If you want to keep track of your home’s past electricity consumption, then the installation must be fitted with an IP module
that logs the measuring data.
Selecting the correct measuring module
Select an electricity measuring module with one channel or an electricity measuring module with three channels, based on
the number and type of channels you wish to measure. Alternatively, the electricity consumption can be measured by a
pulse counter provided that the electricity meter is fitted with a pulse output. See
Pulse counter on page 71 .
The electricity measuring module with three channels can be used for:
• measuring a three-phase connection (3N 400 Vac).
• measuring three individual switching circuits (1 x 230 Vac).
Use the programming software to select the operating mode of the electricity measuring module with three channels.
E. ADDRESS button This button is used while programming the installation to send the unique address of the
module during the addressing phase.
F. CHANNEL LEDs One LED per channel. The CHANNEL LED lights up in TEST mode when the consumption
or production of that channel exceeds 20 W. If an error occurs in the channel, the LED
will blink to indicate an error code. See
Error codes on page 69 .
G. STATUS LED The STATUS LED lights up in TEST mode when the module is connected correctly and is
functioning properly. If an error occurs, the LED will blink to indicate an error code. See
Error codes on page 69 .
• The measuring module should not be used for billing purposes. Only the data recorded by the meter of the
energy supplier are valid for billing purposes. The data recorded by the measuring module should be used
for information purposes only.
• Do not use the measuring module to measure direct current components.
• Only use the current clamps supplied with the module to ensure that measurements are accurate.
A maximum of 20 channels can be measured per installation.
