PAP/SAP automation

This automation controls how Currentt determines the correct grid connection point for energy consumption and feed-in.

📋 Overview​

With the PAP/SAP automation, Currentt determines which allocation point is used for the consumption and feed-in of energy. This is relevant for installations with two separate grid connections: a primary allocation point (PAP) and a secondary allocation point (SAP) with different energy contracts per allocation point.

Note

For the PAP/SAP automation to work correctly, the energy tariffs of the relevant location must be available. Make sure the correct energy tariffs have been entered in the Currentt App.

PAP/SAP automation

🎛️ Possibilities​

PAP/SAP switch​

You choose which PAP/SAP switch is controlled by the automation.

Options​

You configure how Currentt determines which allocation point is used at any given moment:

  • Pin to meter when consuming: Select the meter (PAP or SAP) that is always used when energy is being consumed (imported) from the grid.
  • Pin to meter when generating: Select the meter (PAP or SAP) that is always used when energy is being fed back (exported) to the grid.
  • Alternative energy meter: Select an alternative meter to determine whether energy is being consumed or fed back, instead of using the combined PAP and SAP meters. Useful when a device such as an EV charger provides a more accurate reading of the energy direction.
