Technical Definition

The register Current L1 at address 109 is used to monitor current l1 on the Han C6 B5.

  • 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 Current L1 (Address: 109)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=109, 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: "Current L1"
  address: 109
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "A"

Connection Diagram

Here is the standard RS485 wiring for this configuration:

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Measures the instantaneous current on Phase L1. Units are Amperes (A). Used for load balancing and monitoring.

Troubleshooting: Zero value may indicate no load on L1, a blown fuse, or a faulty sensor. Check connections and load status.
