DC metering is critical as power systems adopt solar PV, battery energy storage, EV fast charging, and DC microgrids. Accurate DC measurement provides transparent energy accounting, validates system efficiency, and supports protection and control strategies. Reliable meters quantify voltage, current, power, and energy in real time, offering revenue-grade billing, performance benchmarking, and early fault detection, collectively improving reliability and regulatory compliance across evolving DC infrastructures.
DC energy metering is used in systems such as solar panels, battery systems, and EV charging stations, where voltage and current flow in a single direction. DC meters focus on stable, accurate measurements and tracking continuous energy flow. AC energy metering is used in homes, buildings, and utility grids where power alternates. AC meters measure changing waveforms, power factor, and distortion. Both types of meters maintain accurate energy monitoring but are designed for different electrical systems.
Delivers real-time DC energy monitoring with revenue-grade precision, meeting IEC 62053-41 Class 0.5 accuracy standards. With 0.1% voltage accuracy, 0.2% current accuracy, and 0.5% accuracy for power, energy, charge, and demand measurements, the meter provides consistent, reliable performance across a broad range of DC applications.
Supports two DC current inputs, each compatible with shunt sensors and Hall effect sensors, allowing the meter to measure two independent DC current channels and provide accurate, simultaneous monitoring of multiple DC circuits within a single device.
Offers current and voltage cable loss compensation to maintain accurate billing in DC power systems. Differences in cable material, length, and conductor size introduce resistance that causes voltage drop and power loss between the source and the load. By accounting for these losses, the meter ensures accurate measurements so billing reflects the actual energy delivered to the load.
Provides unauthorized tamper protection through both physical and electronic seals. Locked parameter settings protect calibration and billing configurations from unauthorized modification, and when paired with a sealed shunt, the system forms a fully enclosed, tamper-resistant measurement chain, maintaining data integrity for revenue-grade DC applications.
Includes three independent data loggers and a trend logger, each configurable to record voltage, current, power, energy, and amp-hour metrics. Equipped non-volatile memory, the meter can store 1-minute interval data for up to 16 months, delivering reliable long-term record retention for detailed analysis and reporting.
Supports Modbus RTU communication through a built-in RS485 port and Modbus TCP/IP over a 100 Mbps Ethernet connection for reliable remote data access and configuration.

AcuDC-262 supports 0-1000VDC direct-connected voltage measurement with a 10V pickup and accepts current inputs via external shunts, supporting –100 to 100mV, 4-20 mA, and ±5 V signals, with shunt ratings from 20A up to 50,000A.
The electronic seal can be enabled or disabled by toggling the switch highlighted below. Ensure the meter is powered off before switching the seal, and power the meter back on for the change to take effect.
Cable loss compensation can be configured through the meter’s setup menu or Modbus registers. Users can enable the feature and then enter the cable length, the cable resistance per unit length, and the positive or negative compensation direction, depending on the installation. This function corrects voltage drop across long DC cables to improve measurement accuracy at the point of load.
Energy readings such as Wh, kWh, and Ah can be viewed directly on the meter’s front display within the Energy or Measurement pages, and the same values are available through Modbus registers for remote monitoring.
