PC4713-W-TY

Three-Phase WiFi Smart Energy Meter

For multi-tenant boards: Tuya 3-phase meter reading 90-277 V per phase, three 750 A CTs, solar export and usage every 15 seconds.

Overview

PC4713-W-TY is the Wi-Fi-only model of the OWON three-phase Tuya range. Three open-type CT clamps go around the incoming conductors — nothing is cut and no supply is interrupted — and consumption, solar export and per-phase values are read in the Tuya App.

It is specified for three-phase four-wire supplies at 90–277 Vac per phase (3×230/400 V AC) and also covers split-phase and single-phase systems. Measurement is bidirectional, so energy drawn from the grid and energy pushed back by a PV array are recorded separately, and CTs from 80 A to 750 A take the same meter from a domestic board to a light-industrial feeder.

Where the PC4713-W-TY Sits in the Range

Every model in the PC4713 family shares one three-phase metering core; the models differ in how the data leaves the meter and whether the meter can switch a load. This is the Wi-Fi-only starting point of the Tuya line. Staying inside that line, Ethernet is added by the PC4713-W-E-TY, the dry-contact relay by the PC4713-W-TY/R, and both together by the PC4713-W-E-TY/R.

Two requirements move a project off this model altogether. A three-phase three-wire or delta service is metered by the PC4713-W-E-TY/3W, which is built for that supply arrangement rather than adapted to it. Keeping data out of a third-party cloud is a change of hardware, not of settings: the equivalent meters are the PC4713 Open API series — PC4713-W over Wi-Fi, PC4713-W-485 over Wi-Fi plus RS485.

PC4713-W-TY Platform and Integration Notes

Reports into the Tuya Cloud, read in the Tuya App. Readings are available live and as history by day, week, month and year. Automation goes beyond display: grid and energy values can be exported to and imported from other Tuya devices, so this meter can act as the trigger for scenes on other equipment in the same account.

Offline storage with automatic re-report. Readings are held locally and re-sent once the network returns, so a dropout does not become a gap in the record.

Notification and language coverage. Alerts are pushed to the App rather than left to be found in a chart, and the App is available in German, French, Spanish and Italian as well as English.

Reactive and apparent power on the home screen, not only active power, so a power-factor problem is visible without opening a report.

Standard Tuya DPs, so Home Assistant keeps working. Standard data points are used wherever possible and custom DPs added only where needed; the standard DPs are what the Home Assistant integration consumes.

PC4713-W-TY Limits and What to Specify Instead

  • Three-phase three-wire and delta — not supported by the Tuya four-wire hardware. Specify the PC4713-W-E-TY/3W.
  • Relay output — not fitted. The PC4713-W-TY/R and PC4713-W-E-TY/R carry the dry-contact relay.
  • Ethernet — not fitted. The PC4713-W-E-TY and PC4713-W-E-TY/R add a 10/100 Mbps port.
  • RS485 / Modbus RTU — not offered anywhere in the Tuya range. The PC4713-W-485 Open API meter carries the serial bus.
  • A destination other than the Tuya Cloud — this model cannot be pointed at your own server.

Key Benefits

Data Export, Hour by Hour or Day by Day

Per-phase and per-sub-circuit energy can be exported from the App — a single day hour by hour, or a date range day by day, covering up to one year.

Erase Data Without Re-Pairing

Stored data is cleared while the Wi-Fi pairing is kept, so wiping a meter does not mean commissioning it again.

CT Setting You Can Change Yourself

The clamp specification is re-ranged from the App at any time — no service visit to change a CT.

15-Second Reporting

Energy data updates every 15 seconds in the App, so a change in load shows up while you are watching it.

Ideal For

Common deployment scenarios where Three-Phase WiFi Smart Energy Meter delivers the most value.

Solar PV Self-Consumption

Bidirectional measurement tracks generation, grid import/export and home consumption.

Whole-Home Energy Monitoring

Three CT clamps monitor total household consumption on single, split or three-phase supplies.

Commercial Submetering

90-277V per phase and CT options to 750A cover commercial building loads.

Residential Smart Home

Tuya App with historical data export for daily, weekly, monthly and yearly analysis.

Energy Analytics & BMS

Frequently Asked Questions

Which models are in the PC4713 series and how do they differ?
PC4713-W-TY (Wi-Fi with the Tuya App) · PC4713-W-E-TY (Wi-Fi plus Ethernet) · PC4713-W (open: MQTT, HTTP and Modbus TCP over Wi-Fi) · PC4713-W-485 (open plus RS485 Modbus RTU) · PC4713-W-E-TY/3W (three-phase three-wire and delta). All are 35 mm DIN rail, 19 x 69 x 90 mm.
My board is three-phase four-wire and I only want the data in the App — is this the right model?
Yes, if you do not need Ethernet or a relay. It meters three-phase four-wire at 90-277 Vac per phase, and also covers split-phase and single-phase, with three open-type clamps and bidirectional measurement. A three-phase three-wire or delta service needs the PC4713-W-E-TY/3W, and a circuit that has to be switched needs the PC4713-W-TY/R.
How do I tell whether my site is four-wire or three-wire?
The practical test is the neutral. Three phases plus a neutral is three-phase four-wire, which this model meters. Three phases with no neutral — three-wire or delta — needs the PC4713-W-E-TY/3W, which is specified for 156-480 Vac line-to-line. On a 415 V three-phase site, confirm which of the two you have before ordering.
Which CT ratings and apertures are available?
Three-phase main CTs run 80 / 120 / 200 / 300 / 500 / 750 A with bores of Ø10 / 16 / 20 / 24 / 36 / 51 mm. Non-standard ratings such as 100 A or 150 A start at 100 pieces per rating. The clamps are open-type, so no cable is cut and no supply is interrupted.
How accurate is it?
Voltage ±1%; current ±1% at rated current and ±2% at low current, banded per clamp. On 300 A and above, ±1% holds from 6 A up, ±2% between 2 A and 6 A, and ±5% below 2 A.
Does it measure export as well as consumption?
Yes. All models are bidirectional, so consumption and generation are both measured and a solar or storage installation needs no second meter.
Can I export data, and how long is history kept?
Yes. Export covers per-phase and per-sub-circuit energy: a single day hour by hour, or a date range day by day, over a one-year window.
How would I know if the three phases were wired in the wrong order?
The meter raises a phase-sequence error alarm on its indicator light, instead of letting a swapped phase surface later as an unexplained fault on a three-phase load.
Does it need a gateway?
No. It connects over Wi-Fi by itself. A gateway is only needed for our ZigBee devices.
Does it tell anyone when something needs attention?
Yes. Alerts are pushed to the App rather than left in a chart, and the App carries German, French, Spanish and Italian as well as English.
