The STE38-A is a high-performance STS-compliant prepaid electricity meter tailored for three-phase four-wire systems, specifically engineered to meet the balanced load demands of commercial, industrial, and residential applications. Equipped with international-grade metering chips, it delivers precise measurement of three-phase voltage, current, active/reactive power, and four-quadrant energy, ensuring reliable data for energy management. Featuring a keypad-type design with an intuitive LCD display, it supports STS token recharge and offers up to 8 multi-tariff plans, along with practical functions like credit alarming, automatic switch-off when credit is low, and comprehensive tamper detection (including cover opening detection). An optional RF communication module enables remote reading, real-time consumption monitoring, and remote on/off control, enhancing operational efficiency. Constructed with a thickened flame-retardant shell and IP54 dust/water splash resistance, the meter boasts stability, durability, and safety, while its back triangular fixed positions and hanging hole design facilitate easy installation. Compatible with the StronPay vending system, it supports multiple recharge methods (by amount/unit) and seamless integration with third-party platforms (M-PESA, Alipay, etc.) via APIs, making it an ideal choice for accurate power measurement and efficient energy management across households, apartments, supermarkets, factories, and office buildings.
