Carlo Gavazzi EM540 vs Acrel ADL400
| Install fit | ||
|---|---|---|
| Phase support | 2-phase 3-wire; 3-phase 3-/4-wire including wild-leg; 120-240 V L-N, 208-415 V L-L, 45-65 Hz. | Three-phase three-wire and three-phase four-wire systems. |
| Installation | Indoor 3-DIN DIN-rail direct-connected energy analyzer for low-voltage switchboards. | Indoor 4-module (72 mm) DIN-rail installation by a qualified electrician; the ADL400 family documents direct-connected and external-CT wiring variants. |
| Measurement | Direct TRMS bidirectional active/reactive/apparent energy and power, demand, PF, frequency, and current/voltage THD to the 15th harmonic; non-MID XS1X. | Three-phase 3P3W/3P4W electrical-parameter, 1st-31st harmonic, and bidirectional active/reactive energy measurement over local RS485 Modbus RTU. |
| Max current | 65 A | 80 A |
| Meter fit | ||
| Accuracy class | Class 1 active energy; Class 2 reactive energy; XS1X is non-MID. | Active energy Class 0.5; reactive energy Class 2; MID/CE listed. |
| Current sensing | Direct 5(65) A input; 0.25 A minimum and 20 mA start-up current; no external CT. | Two documented input variants: 3 x 10(80) A and 3 x 1(6) A, with separate direct-connect and external-CT wiring diagrams; confirm the ordered input variant. |
| Monitoring | ||
| Protocol | RS485 Modbus RTU | RS485 Modbus RTU |
| Local API | Yes | Yes |
| Cloud dependency | No vendor cloud required for core use; EM540DINAV23XS1X exposes local RS485 Modbus RTU data. | No vendor cloud required for core metering; ADL400 exposes local RS485 Modbus RTU for SCADA, EMS, gateways, or automation systems. |
| Home Assistant | Yes | Yes |
| Solar fit | ||
| Solar import/export | Yes | Yes |
| Buying context | ||
| Availability | North America, Europe and UK; XS1X carries cULus, CE and UKCA. Local stock varies. | Global Acrel product range with direct quote/contact routes; local distributor availability and certification context vary by market. |
