.Procon.Abb B23 Modbus Register 23296: B23 Voltage L1-N

Technical Definition

The register B23 Voltage L1-N at address 23296 is used to monitor b23 voltage l1-n on the .Procon.Abb B23.

• Protocol: Modbus RTU
• Data Type: U DWORD
• Unit: V
• 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 B23 Voltage L1-N (Address: 23296)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=23296, 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: "B23 Voltage L1-N"
  address: 23296
  value_type: U_DWORD
  unit_of_measurement: "V"

Connection Diagram

Here is the standard RS485 wiring for this configuration:

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Voltage measured between Phase 1 (L1) and Neutral (N) on the B23 device. Measured in Volts (V).

Troubleshooting: Zero or abnormal voltage indicates L1 power issue, neutral connection problem, or device fault. Verify grid connection.
