[QUOTE="binky, post: 549611, member: 490"] They really are a legacy of the FiT scheme, but you never know, that may come back - did I just see a flying pig??? :D . I'm not sure if MCS still insist on fitting them (probably do), but really it no longer serves any function other than it is quite useful to have to compare Inveter figures with the meter. These are always slightly different as it is an OFGEM approved meter so is in fact calibrated, where as the inverter isn't. The only other thing they are any good for is showing a little red LED when the inverter is shut down but AC is still connected - shows any problem probably isn't the AC connection, the LED flashes when generating, and if there's no LED flashing or permanently on, then you have lost the AC connection.
