Srne Hf2430U60 Modbus Register 532: Grid Current

Technical Definition

The register Grid Current at address 532 is used to monitor grid current on the Srne Hf2430U60.

• Protocol: Modbus RTU
• Data Type: INT16
• 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 Grid Current (Address: 532)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=532, 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: "Grid Current"
  address: 532
  value_type: INT16
  unit_of_measurement: "A"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Current AC grid current in Amperes (A). Measures the active current flowing to or from the grid.

Troubleshooting: Zero indicates no grid interaction (e.g., off-grid, inverter fault, or no load/generation).
