Measuring and switching plug devices

At 2-Wire, we continue to innovate in the field of energy management, and the WP.16A ‘smart energy plug’ is a prime example. This smart plug offers the possibility to measure the energy consumption of connected devices and to easily switch them on or off. This switching can be done via your own IF-THEN-ELSE logic in the connected ReMI or ELAN web server, or with the practical on/off button on the module itself.

Wireless connectivity and global control
The stand-alone WP.16A uses WiFi 2.4GHz and communicates via a set MQTT account. This account can be linked to a 2-Wire web server such as LoWi3, ReMI, ELAN or MEMo3, as well as to a proprietary app or cloud application. This allows you to read and/or switch devices worldwide. When used with just a LoWi3, you can only read consumption, not switching.

New features and smart functionality
Recently we updated the smartplug firmware, which now allows the WP.16A to measure in two directions. This makes it possible to monitor the output of plug solar panels and the input or output of plug batteries. In addition, the plug can be automatically switched based on measured values coming in through the linked ReMI or ELAN Web server. You can read how to set this up in the FAQ on our website.

An additional convenient feature of this smartplug is the RGB LED. This LED changes color depending on the consumption of the connected device, giving users insight into the current energy consumption at a glance.

With the WP.16A, we offer a powerful tool for modern energy management. Take a look at our website today at Products/Lowi and ReMI/… and discover how this smart plug can transform your energy management.

The ‘P1 port and 2x pulse to Modbus and to Pulse Converter’ is a stand-alone module which converts the meter readings of the P1 port and 2 pulse inputs simultaneously to Modbus registers and to consumption pulses. The pulse outputs can be set to import, export, gas or water consumption pulses but also to SmartGrid outputs which switch on/off at a set capacity of consumption or injection.

The MoCo2 can be used as a Modbus slave, or pulse emitter in a ReMI, ELAN, MEMo3 or a proprietary PLC/datalogging system, or also as a control contact to the heat pump.

With the Windows Visualiser tool and a link via USB-C, one can set the Modbus address, pulse weight and/or switching logic after which the module is installed plug&play at the customer’s site.
