EEBUS Relay Converter (ERC)
Analog system in the field? Make it easily controllable with the EEBUS Relay Converter (ERC). It converts EEBUS control commands into relay switching and enables control of your analog system in accordance with § 14a EnWG and § 9 EEG.
Making Analog Systems Controllable
- Interoperability: The ERC enables the control of analog systems from the SMGWplus via relays
- Standard: The ERC complies with all relevant standards:
- TR-5 certification
- Control according to FNN control concept
- Convenience:
- Simple pairing: SHIP pairing according to EEBUS specifications
- Familiar systems: Control via the GWA
- All information for functional commissioning in the eLS
- Additionally: Update and management processes possible via the CLS channel
Converting Digital Control Signals in Relay Circuits
The EEBUS format of the EEBUS Initiative e.V. is established as a standard for control signals from the grid. Our EEBUS Relay Converter converts EEBUS signals such as Limitation of Power Production (LPP) or Limitation of Power Consumption (LPC) into relay switching.
Controllable systems that previously could only be controlled using relays can now be controlled using the same commands as digital systems.
A Strong Partner: Weidmüller
Industrial Connectivity: Electrification, automation, digitalization, electrical connection technology, and renewable energy—markets in which Weidmüller is at home. Founded in 1850, this family-owned company has production facilities and sales subsidiaries in over 80 countries. As a global player in electrical connection technology, Weidmüller generated revenue of over one billion euros in fiscal year 2025 with approximately 5,500 employees worldwide —of whom approximately 2,000 are based at the headquarters in Detmold, in the heart of East Westphalia-Lippe.
