Smart Metering. Local & secure.
You’ll know how much you’re spending, and you’ll be able to reduce it.
Know how much electricity your home is using. Home Energy Meter is the smart meter that you control. It’ll record up to 200 amps of your home’s electricity use in real-time with 99% accuracy. And it’ll share it with your Z-Wave gateway, but no one else.
Connectivity & Compatibility.
SmartThings IntegrationMake your own power grid more efficient.
A meter, that collects precise data of your power producers.
The Home Energy Meter can measure the overproduction of solar panels, wind turbines or other generators in your home grid. It is connected to max. 3 phases at your mains power connection. That allows to gather even the slightest overproduction, which would be feed in the grid from your power producers. Since it is more sufficient and economizing to use your own power instead of feeding it to the grid, the Home Energy Meter lets you automate your home to use as much of your power by yourself.
Automate electrical appliances based on your power production.
A home has numerous electrified devices, that are turned on regularly. Washing machines, pumps, air filters, air coolers, heaters or dishwashers consume a high percentage of our every day power consumption. Their activations are independent from the time of day. By timing their actuation based on the current power production of the solar panels or other producers, you will reduce your electricity bill. The Home Energy Meter delivers you the accurate power data, to trigger the automations on your home appliances. To realise the automations, you link Home Energy Meter to your Z-Wave Smart Home gateway with other actuators.
Turn on appliances, when power is produced to maximise your savings.
Record the complete power consumption of your home.
Analyse your home energy consumption and ascertain power guzzlers.
Home Energy Meter provides precise energy data to your Smart Home platform. Use your dashboard to record and track unusual peaks in the power consumption. Old appliances can waste a remarkable amount of power while they run or stay on standby. A close look at the power consumption chart will indicate wether it is sufficient to replace an old electric actuator. Studies have shown, that an average household can save up to 50% of standby power by analysing the power data and conclude specific solutions.
Retrofittable in any switchboard
Fantastic wireless range.
Electricity meters are typically installed outside the home or in hard to reach places. As Home Energy Meter is installed right beside your home’s existing meter, it needs to be built upon excellent wireless technology. It is.
Utilising Z-Wave Plus and Gen5, Home Energy Meter offers wireless connectivity that is optimised to transmit over greater distances and even through walls. Without interference, Home Energy Meter can transmit your home’s electricity use over a distance of 492 feet / 150 metres with your data securely broadcast using AES-128 encryption.

Related Questions (FAQ)
What is an energy meter? How does an energy meter work?
An energy meter (also known as a power meter or smart meter) measures the amount of electrical energy consumed by a device or a household.
Smart meters track usage for billing and monitoring purposes, with offering real-time data and remote communication features.
Why use an energy meter?
Energy meters help monitor and control electrical consumption, leading to better energy efficiency and cost management.
They provide valuable insights into energy use patterns, helping consumers optimize power distribution and reduce waste.
What is the difference between an energy meter and a wattmeter?
There is no functional difference; the name difference applies to the unit of measurement. A wattmeter measures in watts (which can be converted to kilowatts manually), while an energy meter can measure in watts or kilowatts.
What are energy meter use cases?
Smart Energy Meters are used in homes, businesses, and industries to monitor electricity usage, manage costs, and optimize energy efficiency.
How to use an energy meter for automation?
Energy meters can be integrated with other smart devices to optimize energy consumption, trigger actions, and monitor devices remotely.
By connecting to SmartThings, energy data can automate processes, such as switching devices off during peak usage times.
Difference between Heavy Duty Switch and Home Energy Meter?
A Heavy Duty Switch controls a single high-power device and can monitor its energy consumption, while a Home Energy Meter monitors the energy usage of all devices in a building or household.
Home Energy Meter tracks overall energy usage across multiple devices and power phases in a household, whereas The Heavy Duty Switch is designed for specific high-power applications (pool equipment, EV Charger, …), handling high amperage and voltage.
How to set up a Home Energy Meter?
Install the meter by connecting it to the main electrical panel and configuring it with your SmartThings app.
Setup involves wiring the device according to the manual and connecting it to the SmartThings.
Can an energy meter be used for an EV charger?
The more appropriate device to be used for one phase EV Chargers is the Heavy Duty Switch to control and monitor the energy of the EV Charger.
How can I connect a Home Energy Meter to SmartThings?
You can connect the device by using a Z-Wave controller, such as the Smart Hub, to the SmartThings app.
Where to buy a Home Energy Meter?
From The Aeotec shop.
Alternatively, depend where you are located, you can purchase from your desired retailer in your country.
