What is this?
In the Netherlands and Belgium, modern "Smart Meters" feature a physical P1 Port. This port outputs live electricity and gas usage data to devices like Home Assistant or custom energy displays.
p1meter.dev is a virtual version of that port. It provides a live stream of simulated data that mimics the standard DSMR 5.0 protocol. Use it to build and test your energy management software without needing to be near a physical meter.
How to Connect
- Hostp1meter.dev
- Port8080
- ProtocolTCP/IP Raw
- StandardDSMR 5.0
Run this in your terminal to see the raw data stream instantly:
$ nc p1meter.dev 8080
New data packet every 10 seconds.
Data Format (The "Telegram")
In the smart meter world, a Telegram is simply a text packet containing all current readings. The text below is exactly what your app will receive from our server.

Developer Example (Node.js)
const net = require('net');
const client = new net.Socket();
client.connect(8080, 'p1meter.dev', () => {
console.log('Connected to Smart Meter P1 Stream');
});
client.on('data', (data) => {
// Raw telegram data (DSMR 5.0 format)
console.log(data.toString());
});
client.on('close', () => {
console.log('Connection closed');
});
