What can I do with the P1 port of my digital meter?
Short answer
Your digital meter has a P1 user port. In Flanders it gives your electricity use every second, and gas and water every 5 minutes. You activate it at Fluvius.
Explanation
With a P1 dongle or energy monitor you see live what you use. That way you find standby consumption, control a home battery or charger, and keep your consumption peak under control. The data is yours; you decide which application gets access. In Flanders all meters must be digital by 1 July 2029.
Rules of thumb
- Activate via mijn.fluvius.be; it can take up to 72 hours. [SW-S68]
- Electricity: every second; gas and water: every 5 minutes. [SW-S68]
- Flanders: 80 % digital meters by the end of 2024, all meters by 1 July 2029. [SW-S69]
Pitfalls
- A P1 port is read-only; control is done by your own devices. (practical tip, not a source value)
By region
- Flanders
- Fluvius. [SW-S68]
