Technical Definition
The register Leakage Current at address 5805 is used to monitor leakage current on the Imars Mg5Ktl 2M.
- Protocol: Modbus RTU
- Data Type: U WORD
- Unit: mA
- 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 Leakage Current (Address: 5805)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=5805, count=2, unit=1)
if not result.isError():
print(f"Raw Value: {result.registers}")
else:
print("Error reading register")
client.close()
Integration (Home Assistant)

💡 Engineer's Insight
Analysis: AC leakage current to ground. Units: Amperes (A) or milliamps (mA). Safety monitoring.
Troubleshooting: An elevated value suggests an insulation problem or fault in AC wiring. Check for potential hazards.
