D54 Series 2 NCM and WC metering

D54 – Series 2

Two single-phase models on one Series 2 platform — NCM for phase and neutral current insight, WC for straightforward whole-current residential billing.

NCM & WC on one Series 2 platform

Lithium battery, LED backlight, IP54 enclosure, and BS5685 terminals — choose NCM when you need neutral-current measurement for revenue protection, or WC for standard whole-current billing.

Which model do I need?

Both are Series 2 direct-connected residential meters. The difference is what they measure and what that enables for utilities and installers.

NCM vs WC

Choose NCM when you need…

  • Phase and neutral current measurement
  • Stronger detection of wiring issues, neutral irregularities and tamper patterns
  • Revenue-protection oriented residential metering

Choose WC when you need…

  • Standard whole-current (phase) metering without NCM specialization
  • Straightforward residential billing at simpler service points
  • The same Series 2 platform features without neutral-current focus
Compare NCM WC
Measurement Phase + neutral current Whole-current (phase)
Best for Revenue protection / anti-tamper residential use Standard residential billing
Key advantage Neutral-related irregularities and wiring/tamper insight Simple, direct whole-current metering
Tamper / neutral detection Enhanced via neutral current measurement Platform anti-tampering; no NCM specialization
Typical install Homes where utilities prioritize loss & tamper visibility Simpler residential service points

NCM and WC meter options

Same platform, different measurement focus — pick the model that matches your deployment requirements.

  • Standard phase / whole-current measurement
  • Straightforward residential billing at simpler service points
  • Shared Series 2 platform: anti-tampering, lithium battery, LED backlight
  • BS5685 terminals for residential installation
  • IP54 enclosure; choose when NCM specialization is not required

Shared Series 2 specification

Common platform ratings for NCM and WC. Electrical values align with D54 single-phase data in Company Profile 2024. Models differ by measurement function, not by inventing separate unverified WC-only ratings.
