Fronius Smart Meter WR Reveals Household Consumption
The Fronius Smart Meter WR is a bidirectional electricity meter that measures energy flowing to your loads and to or from the grid. It passes that data to your Fronius inverter or Fronius Datamanager 2.0 over Modbus RTU (RS485).
The result is a full picture of what your home produces, uses, imports and exports.

The Fronius Smart Meter WR in a nutshell
Bidirectional metering
Measures energy flow to the loads or to the public grid and reports it to the inverter or Datamanager 2.0.
Wide voltage range
Line voltage 90 to 347VAC line to neutral, 120 to 600VAC line to line, 1 to 3 phases with 2 to 4 wires.
CT-based measurement
Reads current through external current transformers that output 333.33 mV AC at rated current, such as the Accu-CT ACTL series.
GEN24 and SnapINverter ready
The operating instructions cover setup with Fronius SnapINverters via Datamanager 2.0 and with Fronius GEN24 inverters, including multi-meter systems.
