FRITZ!Smart Energy 250: Information on the electricity meter

Requirements for operating FRITZ!Smart Energy 250 on the electricity meter

FRITZ!Smart Energy 250 is a sensor that reads the consumption data of your digital electricity meter and transmits the data to your FRITZ!Box, FRITZ!App Smart Home, or MyFRITZ! Net for analysis.

FRITZ!Smart Energy 250 is compatible with most of the digital electricity meters installed in Germany. However, some digital electricity meters in Germany have INFO (infrared) interfaces that behave differently, with the result that FRITZ!Smart Energy 250 cannot read any data. The table below lists the electricity meters which are incompatible with FRITZ!Smart Energy 250.

For more information on FRITZ!Smart Energy 250, see also our Current Sensor FAQs.

In order to launch operation of FRITZ!Smart Energy 250 on a digital electricity meter, the following requirements must be met:

  • The electricity meter must not be included in the list of incompatible meters presented below.
  • The electricity meter must have been provided by the meter operator.
