The ConnectPoint LVM Box for low‑voltage monitoring is successfully deployed in the field. Consisting of sensors, a gateway, and a router, it provides the essential data foundation for intelligent low‑voltage grid management.
Growing numbers of photovoltaic systems, electric vehicles, and heat pumps are causing fluctuations and peak loads in low‑voltage grids. To maintain grid stability, grid operators are permitted to intervene under §14a EnWG and §9 EEG. A prerequisite for such interventions and for identifying bottlenecks is real‑time monitoring of voltage and current in the low‑voltage grid.
ConnectPoint’s Solution: the LVM Box
Using Rogowski coils (current sensors), the LVM Box measures voltage and current in low‑voltage feeders. These measurement values from transformers and feeders are collected by the ConnectPoint LVM Box, converted into usable data, and transmitted to the central data system, where they support low‑voltage grid control.
Key Advantages of the ConnectPoint LVM Box:
- High‑precision measurement data
- Real‑time availability
- Seamless system integration
- Compact design
- Fast app‑based installation
Since October 2025, the LVM Box has been in field operation with a major grid operator and has successfully achieved all defined targets.
The ConnectPoint solution works seamlessly with the openKONSEQUENZ Low Voltage Cockpit (https://www.openkonsequenz.de), which processes all measurement data, visualizes it in real time, analyzes it, and initiates control actions in accordance with §14a EnWG and §9 EEG.
The openKONSEQUENZ Low Voltage Cockpit is developed by the cooperative consortium as a modular system that can be flexibly adapted to future requirements. As open‑source software, it ensures integration with existing systems, high quality, scalability, and professional maintenance.
ConnectPoint team will present samples, demos, and information on functionality and application scenarios at E‑World in Hall 5, Booth 5A‑121.
