Catalog note

One 1P+N circuit: the line is wired through the meter's own terminals and the neutral passes alongside, so it meters a single circuit up to 63 A

Power Factor

Emporia Vue 3 3-Phase: No
NodOn Zigbee Smart Energy Monitor: Yes
Catalog note
Reports voltage, current, active power, apparent power, power factor and AC frequency alongside the energy totals | Zigbee2MQTT exposes power_factor, power_apparent and ac_frequency for this exact model

Split Phase

Emporia Vue 3 3-Phase: Yes
NodOn Zigbee Smart Energy Monitor: No
Catalog note
Rated 110-240 V AC 50/60 Hz as a 1P+N single-phase meter, so a 120/240 V North American split-phase service with two hot legs is out of scope
