Hager

Monitors single-phase energy consumption via Modbus RTU

Overview

Template for the Hager ECA180D single-phase energy meter over Modbus RTU. It reads voltage, current, power, energy (in and out), frequency, and power factor. Ideal for monitoring individual circuits or single-phase loads in residential and commercial installations.

Key readings

Voltage
Current
Power
Energy In
Energy Out
Frequency
Power factor (IEC and IEEE)

Use cases

Monitor real-time voltage, current, and power of a single-phase circuit on a cloud dashboard.
Track imported and exported energy over time to verify billing or self-consumption figures.
Create an alert when power factor drops below a threshold, indicating potential reactive power issues.
Compare energy consumption across multiple tenant circuits using one template per meter.
Log frequency readings to detect grid instability events at remote or rural sites.

Installation

1Mount the Hager ECA180D on a DIN rail and wire the load conductors through the meter according to the wiring diagram in the Hager manual.
2Connect the RS-485 A and B terminals of the meter to the corresponding terminals on the ModbusCloud gateway (MCG or MLP series), using twisted-pair cable with proper termination.
3Set the Modbus slave address on the ECA180D using its front buttons or DIP switches, ensuring each meter on the bus has a unique address.
4Confirm that the meter baud rate is set to 19200 with odd parity (8E1), matching the template defaults.
5Import the Hager ECA180D template in the ModbusCloud platform and assign the correct slave address to start receiving data.
6Verify readings on the ModbusCloud dashboard by comparing displayed voltage and current values with a reference measurement at the meter.
