    Solar sensor placement

    So I accidentally figure it out. I went into my office which is a converted garage and has its own fuse box, switched on the heating and the watt use increased. So fuse box on the left is for the garage. So basically it’s only picking up use from there via the CT sensor. I don’t really know now...

    Solar sensor placement

    Hi the problem is deffo the sensor, it hangs loose around the cable, don’t know if that matters? I know at this time of night the house uses around 230w of power, however the system shows 0w in use currently. I’ll call the chaps on Monday to get it sorted. Thank for all the help MHarv.

    Solar sensor placement

    Hi all, wonder if anyone could help. Had my solar installed before the smart meter. Just had the smart meter installed last week and all my readings don’t align.
