A discreet sensor to steer your energy
The Anker SOLIX Smart Meter is a small measuring device that observes the electricity flowing into and out of the house. It feeds information to a compatible Anker SOLIX system, such as a battery, so that the system adjusts its output to real consumption rather than an estimate. For a household that wants to get the most from its panels, it is a link that matters.
Everyday use
Once connected and configured, the meter asks for nothing more. Values appear in the app or on your system’s interface. Before buying, check in the manual which Anker SOLIX equipment and which grid types are supported.
Who can benefit
- Households with solar panels and a battery who want to limit the energy sent to the grid.
- People who want to understand when their home consumes the most.
- Craftspeople or small shops that would like to follow the load of their premises.
Format and construction
The housing measures 95 × 66.5 × 36 mm and weighs 360 g. These modest dimensions make it easy to install in a panel, a technical cabinet or a wall enclosure without needing much room. At 360 g it calls for no reinforced mounting, but it should be wedged in neatly so the cables do not pull on it. No protection rating was supplied, so place it in a dry, sheltered spot.
Setup and connection
Start by identifying where the meter is to measure, then check the length of the cables meant to reach your system. Connecting to the panel or the grid supply is a delicate operation: leave it to a qualified installer. Follow the diagram in the manual closely and do not swap any component for a substitute part.
What sets this model apart
- A compact size for installation in a tight space.
- A weight of 360 g, simple to handle during fitting.
- An accessory from the same brand as the system it is meant for.

Safety advice
Always switch the supply off before touching the wiring. Make sure the conductors are in good condition and tightened properly, because a poor contact causes heating. Do not place the meter near a heat source or in an area exposed to water. Respect the maximum values in the manual and avoid any modification of the housing.
Care and storage
Dusting with a dry cloth is enough, with the device disconnected. About once a year, check that the terminals are still tight and that the cables show no sign of wear. If the meter is put aside, protect it in its packaging, in a dry place, and keep the manual for a future installation.
