New online store!

I have stopped selling on Tinde, you can purchase this product on my new online store at https://www.sitronlabs.com/store/slpb00006-linky-shield-for-arduino-23. You can read more on why Tindie no longer complies with European laws in the community forum.

Description

This shield plugs into any Arduino Uno shaped board and allows you to read real-time information provided through the official consumer-side Télé-Information Client (TIC) output of the french Linky electricity meters. That information, refreshed approximately every 10 seconds includes:

• Power (in W)
• Current (in A) for each phase
• Accumulated consumption (in Wh)
• Advance notice for EJP Rate (Préavis)
• Pricing for EJP Rate (Heures Normales, Heures Pointe Mobile)
• Pricing for HC Rate (Heures Pleines, Heures Creuses)
• Pricing for Tempo rate (Bleu, Blanc ou Rouge)
• Tomorrow's color for Tempo Rate (Bleu, Blanc ou Rouge)

Features

• Example firmware provided in the links below
• Supports long distances
• Screw terminal connector to easily connect cables from your Linky meter
• Doesn't use any gpio or interrupt, only the I2C pins
• Led to display activity
• Comes with headers assembled, so you don't have anything to solder

Use cases

• Home automation, where meter is located too far away for wireless sensors
• Advanced control of power hungry home appliances (water heater) when using the Tempo option

Firmware

Multiple example are available on github.

Notes

The TIC Shield doesn't come with a display shield, it is only shown in photos for demonstration purposes. You can buy one on Aliexpress.
