PZEM016 default setting is "Fast", and it uses 0.1 seconds timeout to Modbus commands. PZEM004 may give bad results with fast setting, but seems stable with the "Slow" setting, which means 3 seconds timeout to Modbus commands.

PZEM004 may work with 5 seconds interval +/-3 sec, but avoid if you can.
