GoodWe SEC1000 Smart Energy Meter

The GoodWe SEC1000 smart energy meter is an advanced device designed to optimize and efficiently manage the performance of solar installations. Developed entirely by GoodWe, this meter is an essential tool when combined with the brand's solar inverters, allowing for real-time monitoring and automatic adjustment of various operational parameters to maximize the energy efficiency of the installation.

Intelligent control and energy management:

The GoodWe SEC1000 has the capability to collect and analyze data in real time, enabling solar installation owners to have complete control over energy production and distribution. This smart meter can automatically adjust the active power, the power factor, and other important parameters of the solar plant, ensuring that energy production remains within optimal limits and that the system operates efficiently at all times.

Additionally, the SEC1000 can limit the AC output to the electrical grid, which is useful in installations where specific regulations regarding energy injection into the grid must be met or in cases where excess energy export is to be limited. This adjustment and control capability provides more efficient management of the system's energy resources, contributing to a better balance between self-consumption and solar energy production.

Design and advanced functionalities:

The GoodWe SEC1000 stands out for its compact and modular design, yet despite its small size, it offers a range of powerful functions. The system consists of a three-phase meter and a control card developed by GoodWe, which work together to provide complete control over the solar power plant. This meter not only facilitates real-time monitoring but also dynamically adjusts the installation parameters according to operational needs.

The SEC1000 smart meter can connect to GoodWe's SEMS (Smart Energy Management System) monitoring system, allowing for centralized and highly efficient management of multiple solar inverters. Through SEMS, users can control the performance of their inverters, analyze historical and real-time data, generate detailed reports, and optimize energy use remotely. This integration with SEMS makes the SEC1000 a key tool for managing not only an individual solar installation but also more complex systems with multiple inverters in series.

Resource optimization:

The GoodWe SEC1000 also helps improve the distribution and allocation of system resources. This is particularly useful in solar installations where the goal is to maximize self-consumption and minimize energy fed into the grid. Thanks to its ability to limit energy output to the grid, the meter allows the generated energy to be used more efficiently within the installation itself, avoiding losses and optimizing consumption.

Key specifications:

• Three-phase meter: Compatible with three-phase solar installations, allowing control and monitoring of each phase independently.
• Automatic adjustment: Capability to adjust the active power and power factor of the solar plant according to system needs.
• AC output limitation: Controls the amount of energy exported to the grid, complying with local regulations or user preferences.
• SEMS connectivity: Integration with the SEMS energy management system for real-time monitoring and control of GoodWe inverters' performance.
• Compact and modular design: The SEC1000 is small in size, making installation easy, yet it features powerful functions for energy management.
• Inverter management: Allows control of multiple inverters in series, optimizing the overall performance of the installation.

Integration and compatibility:

The SEC1000 has been designed to integrate seamlessly with GoodWe's range of solar inverters, enhancing their performance and providing advanced control over energy production and consumption. It is especially useful for residential and commercial installations looking to maximize their energy efficiency and improve the return on investment of their solar systems.
