Energy Meter VM-3P5A - REL200320100

Take total control of your energy management with the Victron Energy Meter VM-3P5A. Designed for single-phase, split-phase, and three-phase power systems, this intelligent meter calculates real-time RMS power values with an ultra-fast 100ms refresh rate. Featuring built-in Ethernet and VE.Can communication ports, self-powered operation, and seamless integration with Victron GX devices and the VictronConnect app, it is the ultimate tool for optimizing solar, Energy Storage Systems (ESS), and heavy AC load monitoring.

Ultra-Fast 100ms Data Refresh: Delivers high-speed measurement broadcasts over VE.Can or Ethernet for accurate real-time control of grid feed-in and battery storage. Versatile Phase Support: Fully compatible with single-phase, split-phase, and three-phase electrical systems for maximum setup flexibility. Dual Communication Ports: Built-in Ethernet and VE.Can ports allow direct, reliable communication with local networks and Victron GX devices. Multi-Role Application Setup: Easily configured via the VictronConnect app to monitor grid connection, solar PV output, backup generators, EV chargers, or specific AC loads. Self-Powered Efficiency: Powers itself directly from the AC voltage inputs (N-L1-L2-L3), eliminating the need for an external auxiliary power supply.

Product Details
Maximize the efficiency of your solar or backup power system with the Victron Energy Meter VM-3P5A (REL200320100). Whether you need to regulate grid import/export in an Energy Storage System (ESS) or track individual power sources like solar PV inverters, AC generators, EV chargers, or heat pumps, the VM-3P5A delivers precise, real-time measurement across every phase.

High-Speed Precision & Real-Time Control

In modern energy systems, speed and accuracy are everything. The VM-3P5A calculates active power, apparent power, voltage, current, and power factor for each phase, broadcasting data every 100 milliseconds. This high refresh rate ensures your system responds instantly to sudden load shifts, minimizing grid power reliance and maximizing self-consumption.

Dual Connectivity: Ethernet & VE.Can Onboard

Integrating your meter into your power system is quick and straightforward. The VM-3P5A features both an Ethernet port (Modbus UDP) for local network integration and dual VE.Can ports for direct connection to Victron GX communication devices (such as the Cerbo GX or Ekrano GX). Included VE.Can terminators make direct cabling simple and clean.

Flexible Roles & Easy App Configuration

Engineered as a plug-and-play grid meter for systems using Victron MultiPlus and Quattro inverter/chargers, the VM-3P5A works straight out of the box. Using the VictronConnect app, you can effortlessly customize the meter’s role - switching between Grid Meter, PV Inverter, Generator, AC Load, EV Charger, or Heat Pump - and configure energy registration methods to match your specific regional utility standards.
(Please note: The VM-3P5A is designed for use with standard 5A secondary external current transformers, which are sold separately.)
