IDENTIFICATION: Confirm the Vue 3 hardware and included CT kit by label. Circuit count and conductor layout depend on the purchased kit and panel.

Specifications & compatibility

Exact model / functionEmporia Vue 3 Home Energy Monitor, EMV3A; home energy and circuit monitoring using current transformers and voltage sensing.
Measured metricsEnergy and electrical use for the mains and monitored branch circuits; the manufacturer documentation describes per-circuit monitoring.
Voltage / phaseVoltage sensing up to 264 VAC line-to-neutral per channel. Supported configurations include single-phase, split-phase and specified three-phase wye; do not infer delta support.
Current range / accuracyStandard system uses 200 A mains CTs and 50 A branch CTs; included sensor count varies by kit. Published Vue 3 measurement accuracy is ±2%; apply only as specified by manufacturer conditions.
Display / network / outputNo local display or wired measurement output. Wi-Fi reporting and configuration through the Emporia app.
Form factorCompact panel-mounted monitor with external split-core CT sensors; installation inside an electrical load center.
Host compatibilityEmporia app on supported iOS and Android devices; 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi is required for connected use. No desktop-only interface is specified.
Electrical safetyManufacturer identifies applicable UL safety certifications. Installation involves an energized electrical panel and must follow the exact installation guide and local code; use a qualified electrician. Do not exceed CT and voltage-sense ratings.

Installation & archival notes

  • Record whether the kit contains 8, 16 or other included branch CTs; a supported sensor count is not the same as a branch-breaker limit.
  • Match phase, neutral and CT orientation to the manual. Incorrect conductor pairing can produce incorrect readings.
  • Do not open or modify the monitor or panel while energized. Isolate equipment only according to local electrical procedures.
