The Schneider ComPact NSX is a circuit breaker that can also measure energy. To communicate with the SmartgridOne Controller, it must be equipped with a MicroLogic 5, 6, or 7 trip unit.
We support the ComPact NSX range with Electronic Trip Units. Choose the driver that matches your device's Modbus profile.

Important: Check your Trip Unit This driver only works if your breaker has a MicroLogic 5.x, 6.x, or 7.x trip unit.
You cannot wire directly to the breaker The ComPact NSX does not have built-in RS485 or Ethernet terminals. You must install an external Interface Module (Gateway) on the DIN rail next to the breaker.
Regardless of your communication method, you need the NSX Cord.
