Chapter 1. Introduction
1.1 Introduction
SDM630MCT-ML is a new multifunction energy meter designed by Eastron for multi channels measurements.
The meter can work with 1p2w, 1p3w, 3p3w and 3p4w electricity grid, and it provides all important electrical
parameters: voltage, current, power, PF, THD, frequency, demand, energy etc. By using plug-in connectors, the
meter provides an easy click solution saving 80% installation time and avoiding wiring mistakes.
The SDM630MCT-ML is compactly designed. It can be used as 4x three phase energy meters or 12x single
phase energy meters. 100mV secondary external CT is required to work with the meter.
The meter is equipped with a RS485 communication port by using 2x RJ45 connectors. Modbus RTU protocol is
adopted for remote reading and programming. The meter has a big backlitted LCD showing data and uses 4
touch buttons in front for data checking and programming.
