Why Choose the ABB A44211100CT A44 Three-Phase Energy Meter?
The ABB A44211100CT, manufacturer type A44 211-100, is an advanced three-phase transformer-connected electricity meter designed for accurate energy monitoring in industrial, commercial and electrical distribution applications. Part of ABB's A44 DIN-rail mounted meter range, it provides measurement of active and reactive energy together with key electrical instrumentation values through a clear backlit digital display.
Designed for CT/VT-connected three-phase systems, the A44 211-100 can be used in both 3-wire and 4-wire networks. It supports a wide voltage range of 3 × 57.7/100–288/500 V AC and transformer-connected current measurement, making it suitable for monitoring loads beyond the practical range of direct-connected electricity meters.
The meter records active and reactive energy in both import and export directions and provides a configurable output for pulse or alarm functions. It also features an infrared communication port, event logging and multiple instrumentation values, while its IEC and MID approvals make it suitable for professional energy-management and sub-metering applications.

Transformer-connected electricity meters allow energy consumption to be measured in installations where the load current is too high for direct connection to the meter. The ABB A44 211-100 uses external current transformers, and where required voltage transformers, to provide accurate three-phase energy measurement while keeping the meter isolated from the full load current.
The A44 211-100 goes beyond basic kWh measurement by recording active and reactive energy in both import and export directions and providing access to important electrical instrumentation values. Its alarm capability, event logging, pulse output and infrared interface make it suitable for energy monitoring, sub-metering, load analysis and integration into broader energy-management systems.
