Detmold / Mannheim, den 10.02.2026: Weidmüller und Power Plus Communications AG präsentieren auf der E-World den EEBUS-Relais-Converter (ERC). Das gemeinsam entwickelte Produkt übersetzt digitale EEBUS-Steuersignale in analoge Relais-Schaltbefehle. Damit können auch nicht-digitale Anlangen, nach Vorgaben des § 14a EnWG und § 9 EEG von einem SMGWplus gesteuert werden.

Auch in einem digitalen Smart Grid gibt es weiterhin analoge Anlagen, die über Relaisschalteingänge gesteuert werden müssen. Ein effizienter Rollout intelligenter Messsysteme benötigt daher neben der digitalen Steuerung über EEBUS auch die Relais-Technik. So werden die Vorgaben des § 14a EnWG und § 9 EEG erfüllt, was die Flexibilität im Netz erhöht.
Der FNN empfiehlt für Steuerungsfälle aktuell bereits digitale Schnittstellen – in der Praxis besitzen allerdings zahlreiche Geräte im Bestand noch keine EEBUS-Schnittstelle. Mit dem EEBUS-Relais-Converter präsentieren Weidmüller und PPC ein Produkt, dass diese Lücke ausfüllt.
Der ERC nimmt die Steuerbefehle des Verteilnetzbetreibers über das PPC SMGWplus entgegen und transformiert EEBUS in analoge Schaltsignale auf vier Ausgangsrelais (S1, S2, W3, W4). Über diese kann sowohl die Stufensteuerung (100 Prozent, 60 Prozent, 30 Prozent, 0 Prozent) von Erzeugungsanlagen umgesetzt werden, als auch die „Einzelkontakt“-Steuerung für Erzeuger und Verbraucher. Firmware-Updates können durch den lokalen Direktanschluss oder per Fernanschluss vorgenommen werden. Hier kommen je nach Kundenwunsch entweder der FW-Updateservice von Weidmüller oder das Update aus dem Backend des Messstellenbetreibers via CLS-Kommunikation zum Einsatz.

Dr. Christian von Toll, Chief Sales Officer von Weidmüller berichtet: „Angesichts des steigenden Energieverbrauchs kommt der intelligenten Steuerung von Verbrauchern in Gebäuden eine zentrale Bedeutung zu. Mit dem ERC können wir auch bestehende Liegenschaften und Anlagen sicher und gemäß aktuellen Cybersicherheitsanforderungen an das intelligente Stromnetz anbinden. So treiben wir die Digitalisierung voran und schaffen zugleich die notwendige Infrastruktur für die Energiewende. Mit PPC haben wir zudem einen starken Partner gewonnen, der denselben Pioniergeist wie Weidmüller lebt.“
„Wir freuen uns mit dem ERC dem deutschen Markt für das SMGWplus eine sehr effiziente digitale Ansteuerung von Relais-Anlagen zu ermöglichen. Messstellenbetreiber bleiben in Ihrer Prozessumgebung und können auf etablierte Wege und die iMSys im Rollout aufsetzen – und adressieren dennoch die zahlreichen Neu- und Bestandsanlagen. Dem fortschreitenden Smart Meter Rollout und dem Smart Grid steht damit schon kurzfristig weitere Flexibilität zur Verfügung.“ bekräftigt Ingo Schönberg, Vorstandsvorsitzender der PPC. „Mit Weidmüller konnten wir einen Entwicklungs- und Produktionspartner gewinnen, der das Effizienzpotential mit dieser Steuerungs-Lösung ebenfalls als sehr hoch einschätzt.“

Detmold / Mannheim, 10 February 2026: Weidmüller and Power Plus Communications AG present the EEBUS Relay Converter (ERC) at E-World. The jointly developed product translates digital EEBUS control signals into analogue relay switching commands. This means that even non-digital systems can be controlled by an SMGWplus in accordance with the requirements of Section 14a of the German Energy Industry Act (EnWG) and Section 9 of the German Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG).
[/fusion_text][fusion_text columns=““ column_min_width=““ column_spacing=““ rule_style=“default“ rule_size=““ rule_color=““ hide_on_mobile=“small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility“ class=““ id=““ animation_type=““ animation_direction=“left“ animation_speed=“0.3″ animation_offset=““]
Even in a digital smart grid, there are still analogue systems that need to be controlled via relay switching inputs. An efficient rollout of smart metering systems therefore requires relay technology in addition to digital control via EEBUS. This ensures compliance with the requirements of Section 14a of the German Energy Industry Act (EnWG) and Section 9 of the German Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG), which increases flexibility in the grid.
The FNN currently recommends digital interfaces for control applications – in practice, however, many devices in the inventory do not yet have an EEBUS interface. With the EEBUS relay converter, Weidmüller and PPC present a product that fills this gap.
The ERC receives the control commands from the distribution network operator via the PPC SMGWplus and transforms EEBUS into analogue switching signals on four output relays (S1, S2, W3, W4). These can be used to implement both the level control (100 per cent, 60 per cent, 30 per cent, 0 per cent) of generation plants and the ‘single contact’ control for generators and consumers. Firmware updates can be carried out via the local direct connection or via remote connection. Depending on customer requirements, either the FW update service from Weidmüller or the update from the backend of the metering point operator via CLS communication is used.

Dr Christian von Toll, Chief Sales Officer at Weidmüller, reports: „In view of rising energy consumption, the intelligent control of consumers in buildings is becoming increasingly important. With the ERC, we can also connect existing properties and systems to the smart grid securely and in accordance with current cyber security requirements. In this way, we are driving forward digitalisation and at the same time creating the necessary infrastructure for the energy transition. In PPC, we have also gained a strong partner who shares the same pioneering spirit as Weidmüller.“
„We are delighted that the ERC will enable the German market for SMGWplus to benefit from highly efficient digital control of relay systems. Metering point operators can remain in their process environment and build on established methods and the iMSys rollout – while still addressing the numerous new and existing systems. This will provide further flexibility in the short term for the ongoing smart meter rollout and the smart grid,‘ confirms Ingo Schönberg, CEO of PPC. ’In Weidmüller, we have gained a development and production partner who also considers the efficiency potential of this control solution to be very high.“
