Epever Inverter Entities Sensor Modbus Register 12553: Inverter name Load Input Current

Technical Definition

The register inverter name Load Input Current at address 12553 is used to monitor inverter name load input current on the Epever Inverter Entities Sensor.

• Protocol: Modbus RTU
• Data Type: U WORD
• Unit: A
• Access: Read Only

How to Read (Python pymodbus)

Use this code snippet to read this specific value via RS485:

from pymodbus.client.sync import ModbusSerialClient

client = ModbusSerialClient(method='rtu', port='/dev/ttyUSB0', baudrate=9600)
client.connect()

# Read inverter_name Load Input Current (Address: 12553)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=12553, count=2, unit=1)

if not result.isError():
    print(f"Raw Value: {result.registers}")
else:
    print("Error reading register")

client.close()

Integration (Home Assistant)

Paste this into your configuration.yaml:

- platform: modbus_controller
  name: "inverter_name Load Input Current"
  address: 12553
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "A"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Load input current drawn by the inverter. Unit: Amperes (A).

Troubleshooting: Zero current could mean no load is connected or active. Abnormal current might suggest a short or overload condition.
