3WIRE SP4CH
SP4CH Single Phase 4 Channels Smart Meter
The 3WIRE SP4CH is a single-phase 4-channel smart energy meter designed to measure four different loads from one compact DIN rail meter. It is a practical 4-in-1 metering solution for branch-circuit monitoring, tenant metering, small power circuits, lighting circuits, distribution boards and retrofit energy monitoring.
The SP4CH is supplied with 100A split-core clip-on CTs, supports Modbus RTU through RS485, provides infrared reading, active pulse output, event alarms, data freeze records and per-channel electrical measurements including voltage, current, frequency, power factor, active power, reactive power, apparent power and active energy.
Meter Type
Single-phase 4-channel smart energy meter
CT Supplied
100A split-core clip-on CTs, 1 CT per channel
Communication
RS485 Modbus RTU and infrared port
Installation
Standard 35 mm DIN rail mounting
Product Description
The SP4CH is designed to reduce the cost and space required for multi-circuit single-phase metering. Instead of installing four separate single-phase meters, one SP4CH can monitor four individual loads using independent metering channels and split-core CTs.
Each channel has an independent high-precision energy metering chip to improve metering reliability. The meter supports 4-quadrant energy measurement, allowing each channel to measure import energy, export energy and net energy calculation.
Best use case: SP4CH is suitable for compact retrofit branch-circuit metering where four single-phase loads need to be monitored from one RS485 Modbus meter.
Key Features
4-in-1 Energy Meter
Measures four different single-phase loads from one compact smart meter.
Independent Metering Chips
Each of the four channels has an independent high-precision energy metering chip.
100A Split-Core CTs
Supplied with 100A split-core clip-on CTs, one CT for each of the four channels.
4-Quadrant Energy
Each channel can measure import energy, export energy and net energy calculation.
Per-Channel Electrical Values
Measures voltage, current, frequency, power factor, kW, kVAr, kVA and active energy by channel.
RS485 Modbus RTU
Provides RS485 communication for Modbus RTU integration with gateways, SCADA, EMS or IoTWatt 4.0.
Infrared Communication
Meter data can also be read through the IR port using a handheld reading unit.
Alarm and Event Monitoring
Records and alarms events such as undervoltage, overvoltage, voltage spike, phase loss and related abnormal events.
Data Freeze Records
Supports timed, hourly and daily freeze records for energy and related values.
Typical SP4CH System Architecture
SP4CH can be installed in a distribution board to monitor up to four single-phase circuits. Data is collected through RS485 Modbus RTU and connected to a gateway, BMS, EMS, SCADA or IoTWatt 4.0 platform for dashboards, tenant metering, energy reports and circuit-level analysis.
