A large commercial building

Emma works at a large company and is responsible for everything related to energy. To gain maximum insight into the energy flows within the building, she wants to equip all major circuits and sub-distributions with kWh meters. The building has three floors, each with its own meter. In addition, she wants to monitor the production of the solar panel system, the consumption of the EV charging area, and various other small and large loads. In total, this amounts to 12 sub-meters.

The main connection of 250A is not equipped with a smart meter with a P1 port. Therefore, an indirect kWh meter is used in combination with 250A current transformers to read the data. To monitor the total gas and water consumption, two pulse sensors are used, which are installed on the meters.

Installation

Emma has a direct 3-phase kWh meter installed on all 12 circuits she wants to monitor. For the 250A main connection, an indirect kWh meter is used in combination with three current transformers. All kWh meters are interconnected and connected to the USB port of the CEMM 3.0 via an RS485 converter. The pulse sensors for gas and water are connected to ports 1 and 2.

CEMM ports

Port 1

CEMM port 1

Port 1 of the CEMM supports both P1 and S0 (pulse). In this scenario, one of the Cyble sensors is connected to this port.

Port 2

CEMM port 2

Port 2 of the CEMM is suitable for S0 (pulse). In this scenario, one of the Cyble sensors is connected to this port.

Port 3

CEMM port 3

Port 3 of the CEMM is the network port. This connects the CEMM to a router or switch using a network cable. 

Tip: Is your router too far away and you can't run a cable? Use a WiFi Range Extender with a network port to connect the CEMM to the internet via WiFi.

Port 4

CEMM port 4

The USB port of the CEMM is used to connect the Modbus converter. On the other end of the Modbus converter, there are two wires (A and B). All 13 kWh meters are connected in series to these A and B lines. A 2-core RS485 cable is used for this connection.

Port 5

CEMM port 5

Port 5 is for powering the CEMM. Plug the included power adapter into a wall socket and connect the micro USB connector to port 5.
