Energy Flows Under Control: Energy Measurement for Every Project – From Private Homes to Industry

Energy Measurement Is the Basis for Efficiency

Those who are unaware of the energy flows in their buildings are wasting potential. Modern energy management begins with reliable measurement and only realizes its full potential when losses are minimized and generation, consumption and storage are intelligently coordinated.

Loxone energy meters offer the right solution for every project. Whether for single-family homes, commercial enterprises, or industrial facilities, the meters deliver precise measurements and lay the foundation for efficient energy management. Thanks to flexible designs, both smaller consumer groups and large facilities can be reliably monitored without complicated retrofits or costly conversions.

Why Energy Measurement Is Essential Today:

• Measure energy flows: Record consumption, feed-in and peak loads.
• Reduce base load: Identify and eliminate continuous consumers.
• Optimize energy management: Actively control consumers and generators such as PV systems or storage units, implement load management and use dynamic tariffs.

This three-part approach reflects the Loxone energy management approach: the Miniserver acts as a central control center and optimally coordinates generation, storage and consumption, taking into account weather forecasts and variable electricity prices.

Measure & Visualize Energy Flows

The first step toward greater efficiency is transparency. With Loxone energy meters – whether Tree meters or current transformer meters – all data is reliably recorded and displayed directly in the Loxone App.

• How much energy is currently being drawn from the grid
• How much energy the PV system is feeding in
• How high the charging or discharging capacity of the storage unit is
• Which devices or system components are currently drawing how much power

This overview forms the basis for avoiding peak loads, increasing self-consumption and reducing base loads – whether in your own home, in a commercial enterprise, or in large industrial plants.

Areas of Application for Current Transformer Meters

Current transformer meters are always used when traditional energy meters reach their limits. Loxone Tree energy meters are designed for direct measurements up to 100 A per phase, making them ideal for single-family homes or small commercial units.

However, significantly higher currents occur in larger projects, such as industrial halls, hotels, charging parks, or commercial kitchens. In these cases, current transformers are the right choice: Loxone current transformers can accurately measure currents up to 400 A. Installation is quick and safe, as main cables do not need to be disconnected. This means that even large consumers such as heat pumps, cooling systems, or machine parks can be monitored retrospectively.

Important: The use of current transformers is not only useful for very high currents. Loxone offers models in various sizes, including for 25 A. They are ideal for applications where flexible retrofitting is desired. This means that smaller consumer groups or individual system components can also be specifically monitored independently of the main measurement.

Uniform Energy Measurement – Seamlessly Integrated

Whether single-phase, three-phase, or via current transformers, all Loxone energy meters deliver precise measurements and are fully integrated into Loxone energy management. The data is automatically visualized in the app’s Energy Flow Monitor and is available for analysis, optimization, and control tasks.

This provides a complete picture of generation, consumption, storage, and grid consumption – in real time, clearly arranged, and without additional programming effort.
