The PhaseLink systemOne box. Every NCC load category. No subscription.
PhaseLink is an all-in-one energy monitoring and management system for Australian commercial buildings. Standard meters in the switchboard, our own software hub, and a live dashboard on a screen built into the box. It can run completely air-gapped, with no internet or building network connection.
- Designed to meet NCC Section J
- Built-in screen
- Air-gapped by design
- No subscription
What it is
Everything you need for NCC compliance, nothing you don't
Most buildings need energy monitoring to meet the NCC, not a full building management system. So the PhaseLink base system is deliberately simple: it records energy by service, shows it clearly and keeps the data safe, at a low cost and with a simple install. Reports and the optional remote dashboard are there when you want them. It's built from commercial off-the-shelf hardware and software we've written from scratch.
Dashboard built in
The software hub, storage and dashboard screen are all part of the PhaseLink box. No cloud, no internet connection and no ongoing fees.
Uses standard meters
Open protocols (Modbus TCP and MQTT) and off-the-shelf meters instead of proprietary kit, so you're not locked in.
Built-in screen · Air-gapped by design
The dashboard is on the box. No network needed.
As standard, PhaseLink shows its live dashboard on a screen built into the box. The whole system can run completely air-gapped: no internet, no cloud and no connection to the building's network.
Secure
As standard, there's no connection to the internet or the building network, so there's no remote path into the system and the building's data stays in the box.
No IT approval or network dependency
Nothing to plug into the building network, so there are no firewall changes or IT sign-offs to chase, and recording doesn't depend on anyone else's network.
No subscription
No cloud service and no ongoing fees. Everything the site needs runs on the PhaseLink box.
Remote dashboard (optional). Air-gapped with the built-in screen is the standard. If the site wants it, the box can be connected to the building's local network, and the dashboard opens as a web page from any computer on that network.
What's in the system
Three parts, one job
Energy meters
Standard DIN-rail energy meters in the switchboard, one per service or circuit you need to record. The first supported meter is the three-phase Shelly Pro 3EM, which reads power, energy, voltage, current and frequency. More meter brands are being added.
PhaseLink hub
The all-in-one PhaseLink box. It collects readings from every meter, stores them in crash-safe local storage, and runs the dashboard. Commercial off-the-shelf hardware running PhaseLink's own software.
Built-in screen
The live dashboard and admin page run on a screen built into the PhaseLink box, as standard. Admin, master and viewer logins control who can see and change what. Optionally, the dashboard can also be opened as a web page on the building's local network.
The dashboard
See where the energy goes
The dashboard runs on the screen built into the PhaseLink box. If the site also wants to view it from a computer, connect the box to the building's local network and use the optional web dashboard.
- Live consumption, solar generation and net usage, side by side
- Whole-site peak demand, with the time it happened and the highest 15-minute demand
- Energy by NCC load category
- History charts in kWh or kW, filtered by category and time range
- 15-minute intervals aligned to the clock, flagged if there's a gap or a meter reset
- NCC energy reports for any month, day or custom range, as CSV or print-ready PDF (via USB on an air-gapped box)
- CSV export with UTC and local time columns
- Offline-meter alerts and a storage gauge
NCC energy reports
Reports ready to hand over
Run an NCC energy report for any month, day or custom date range, then export it to CSV or a print-ready PDF. On an air-gapped box, reports are exported to a USB stick. Reports are there when you need them, but the system records everything for NCC whether or not anyone runs one. Viewer logins can run reports too, so owners and facility managers don't need admin access.
Energy by J9D3 category
Energy for each of the nine NCC J9D3 service categories, plus total consumption, solar generation and net.
Demand and daily detail
Peak site demand with the time it happened, and a day-by-day breakdown across the report period.
Data you can trust
A data-completeness check for every meter. Gaps are listed, never estimated. The report also includes the full meter list.
Install and commissioning
Built for electrical contractors
PhaseLink is designed to be installed by the electrician already on the job, without a specialist integrator. One box, standard meters and a simple admin page mean it's quick to deploy, in hours rather than weeks.
When a new meter is detected, the hub lists it in the admin page for you to add or ignore, so nothing gets recorded by accident.
Fit the meters
Install supported meters on each service you need to record, following the project's metering schedule.
Install the hub
Mount the PhaseLink box and connect the meters to it. No connection to the building network or internet is needed.
Add devices
In the admin page, add each meter and assign it to its NCC load category and to consumption or generation.
Hand over
Set up admin, master and viewer logins. The site is recording and the dashboard is live on the box's built-in screen.
Reliable by design
Keeps recording when things go wrong
An energy record is only useful if it's complete. PhaseLink is built for plant rooms and switchboards, not data centres.
- Restarts on its own after a power cut and carries on recording
- Crash-safe storage, checked for damage every time it starts
- Automatic daily backups, each checked before it's kept
- Keeps accurate time without internet, with clock health checks
- Signed software updates from a USB stick, with automatic rollback if an update fails
Secure by design
- Runs completely air-gapped as standard, with no internet or building network connection
- Admin, master and viewer logins
- Device changes and backup downloads need an admin login
- Meter messaging is password-protected on each unit
- No cloud account, so building data stays on site
Who it's for
Why contractors and owners choose PhaseLink
Built for electrical contractors on commercial jobs, and for the builders, developers, owners and facility managers who want clear energy visibility without a full building management system.
Low cost
Priced well below the big industrial EMS brands, so energy monitoring doesn't eat the margin.
Quick to install
One box and a simple admin page. No specialist integrator needed.
No lock-in
Standard meters and open protocols, not proprietary hardware.
No subscription
No ongoing fees and no cloud dependency. The data stays on the PhaseLink box.
Coming soon
What's next for PhaseLink
More meter brands
Support for more meter brands and models beyond the Shelly Pro 3EM.
Larger sites
Multi-meter sites of 50 to 200+ meters, and circuit-level monitoring.
