Application and purpose of TsE6803v
The device, manufactured by the Russian company Energomera, measures the active part of the consumed current connected to the load of the serviced electrical network. Energomer TsE6803v meters keep track of electricity consumption at only one tariff. This excludes their use when supplying electricity at different prices during the day and at night.
Important! In the register of measuring devices, the electric meter is listed as a device for metering and monitoring electric current consumption. In the “Measuring Instruments” category, the meter is listed under number 12673-06.
Guidelines for use and modification
This meter, like the CE 101 energy meter, operates on a single tariff principle. TsE6803VM is installed on a classic DIN rail. It is used to continuously measure and display on the screen the main component of the power of consumed electricity. The device is installed to two-wire AC voltage supply lines.

How to seal an electricity meter
The principle of operation of the TsE 6803 is no different from similar devices. The electric meter has its own design features.
In the control unit, the voltage and incoming current data are sublimated into pulses. The pulse frequency is directly proportional to the power of the incoming energy flow. Data processing is performed by a microprocessor. It is he who is responsible for accurate metering of consumed electricity by the Energomer TsE6803v meter.
Electric meter interface TsE6803v
The electric meter has built-in terminals through which the tester is turned on to check the technical condition of the device. The meter has a non-volatile memory block. In the event of an emergency power outage, the last readings, date, time and tariff are recorded on the display.
There are two LED indicators on the front panel, one of which “Network” begins to glow, confirming the connection to the network. When a load appears, it begins to blink, then the metering device begins to work.
Note! If the “Network” LED does not light up, then you need to check the condition of the terminal connections. Otherwise, the device will need repair.
The second indicator “600 imp/(kW-h)”, by its glow, signals the consumption of the rated power of electric current.

Basic connection diagrams
TsE6308 meters are connected according to three circuits. One option is to connect the device directly.
Connecting TsE6308 directly
Two other connection schemes for TsE6803v use additional electrical equipment in the form of transformers (2 or 3 pieces).

Possible malfunctions and their elimination
Malfunctions of the device during its operation may be minor. This, for example, stops the light indication while the meter is running.
The malfunction may be caused by a loose connection of the terminal contacts. The electricity meter is turned off and the contact connections are strengthened. The device is turned on again and the light indication is checked. If the indicators do not light up, the meter will need to be returned to the appropriate service department.
If the metering device fails, under no circumstances should you open the meter and try to repair it yourself. If this happens, the consumer may face serious liability problems for violating the sealing of the electric meter and be subject to significant penalties.
How to take readings
First you need to know the capacity of the device. Old-style TsE6803 meters (production period from 1997 to 1999) with a calibration interval of 8 years have 7 digits on the display (windows with numbers). Later models are equipped with 8-digit displays, so their verification interval is twice as long - 16 years.
The last digit is separated by a comma from the remaining digits. It is not taken into account when taking readings. Meter readings are taken, as a rule, once a month, recording the data in a notebook. Knowing the tariff, the monthly payment for electricity is calculated. To do this, the amount of kilowatt hours is multiplied by a unit price (tariff). Paid receipts are kept indefinitely.
Seven-digit display
Additional Information. When purchasing a secondary home or building, it is important that the previous owner present a certificate of no debt on electricity. The latest electricity meter readings are recorded. The new owner resumes payments, starting to keep track of his electricity consumption, based on the latest data from the device.
How to take readings
For example, if the device model has a comma and the last right digit is separated by a red line, then you need to specify the number before this line.
If there is no comma and the last number is not framed or colored in one color, then you must enter all the numbers from the counter screen. Simply put, if there is no comma at all, then you need to write all the numbers that are on the screen.
The service life of such a device is more than 20 years. But at the same time, it is advisable to run it with a multimeter from time to time to check for errors. Sometimes, if many powerful devices are connected to the network, the meter will not cope and give incorrect readings.
Multimeter for testing
The TsE6803VM counter is quite an old model, but still relevant. It has a high accuracy class, so it is popular in the market. It can also be easily installed without calling a technician.
Varieties of TsE6308
In addition to the fact that the TsE6803v models differ in technical characteristics, they have different fastenings. The mounting method is reflected in the marking with the following alphanumeric code:
- R31;
- R32;
- Ш33.
R31, R32
The presence of a code of this type in the marking of the device means that its body is equipped with hooks. They attach the meter to the DIN rail. The lath is a metal profile in the form of a channel with a longitudinal perforation. The bracket allows you to mount TsE6803v together with circuit breakers at the same time.
DIN rail
Ш33
On the back panel of the meter there are 3 loops for fastening with bolt anchors inside the panel or cabinet. This is indicated by the designation Ш33 in the device labeling.
Meter installation
When replacing or installing a new electricity meter, the owner of a home, office or industrial building, depending on the circumstances, is required to enter into an electricity supply agreement with the local energy supply provider. You also need to fill out documents to receive a current account to pay for consumed electricity.
The supplying organization provides the consumer with technical documentation indicating the type of electric meter, circuit breaker, wire cross-section and type of mounting (in a panel or on a DIN rail).
The provider's electrician will install the meter and connect it to the network. He also seals the device, about which an acceptance certificate is drawn up, which is signed by the energy sales representative, on the one hand, and the consumer, on the other hand.
Energy meters TsE6803v have the above-mentioned undeniable advantages over their analogues. The products have been produced for decades and have proven themselves only on the positive side.
Single-phase and three-phase models
Models can be single-phase or three-phase. Selected depending on the room.
A single-phase meter is installed in residential apartments. Since electrical appliances are designed for 220 V, there is no point in installing three-phase ones.
Three-phase ones are more often found in private houses and cottages. Usually there are quite a lot of appliances (fireplaces, boilers, speakers), so a three-phase network with a voltage of 350 V is required. You can install a 220 V appliance in the house, but it will only be responsible for the lighting group.
