Hello, I've got a Solax X1-Hybrid-G4 inverter with 2x TP58 (master/slave) installed. I would like to know if there is a way to see the total capacity of the battery. I can see the % of the battery, but no way to knowing it in kW amount. Is there a way to see this or how to work it out? Thanks!

Has anyone tried to wire in a CHINT meter to a Consumer unit? I'm not sure how the live is expected to be fed in if we are normally using a bus bar. E.g. How would you wire this in to a normal UK consumer unit? https://midsummerwholesale.co.uk/pdfs/solax-chint-ddsu666-80a-installation-guide.pdf

Thank you for your helpful replies. I'm still waiting on my "phantom sparky" to come back, so in the meantime if it's not too much trouble, please may I ask a few more questions... If we have a solar set up and want to install a meter for a tenant, would the meter count the tenant's usage? Or...

Would the solar installed not be classed as an investment and energy generated then be a cost which will be to return from the investment? There will be a LONG time before the investment will pay itself off.

The electrician is someone I know, and he will be checking everything thoroughly.

I mostly want to have a meter for the tenants to pay for what they are using. Not really to profit from it. My sparky is on leave for a few weeks and will poke him when he comes back... Is there something you may suggest instead?

Hello, I'm looking to install an electric meter for a shared property with tenants. At present, the electrics are shared and all going into a single consumer unit. We are looking to do the following, but as unsure whether it would be the ideal way of set up. 1. Install Henley blocks after the...

I've got a reply back from SolaX support. They have said to use the 2 meters and crimp them using the pins 4 and 5 and then use an RJ45 splitter to connect them up. I'm now just concerned that this may cancel out each connector as they will both be providing data down the single channel. They...

Sorry to jump into this thread. [Your post has been split. Hi-jacking posts is never good and causes confusion.] I have a similar question. I'm on a good FiT where i get Deemed and Generated rates for the Solar PV system. My current set up is as per below. (16x 250w Solar PV panels into 3.6kw...
