Hi @Energy Freedom

Yes, see here:

Q8: I want to use Current Transformers (CTs), is that possible?

Yes. You can buy the CG EM24DINAV53DISX directly from Carlo Gavazzi or one of their distributors. Even though Victron does not stock that type of meter, we do support it in our software.

The EM24DINAV53DISX is the solution for three-phase systems that go over 65A per phase.

Hi Daniël Boekel (Victron Energy Staff),

I have a 3 phase ESS system we have designed in NZ. Where we have per phase metering. Do you know if there is a CT meter available that will do per phase?

Supply is 160A per phase.

Thanks, Dean

Hi @Dean_D

All meters measure power per phase, it is only on counting energy that the meters differ. for the working of ESS it doesn't matter.
