What about beyond the generation meter?themaverick1953 wrote: »Still just the thick grey cable going in to the generation meter so it looks like I have a spare monitor.2kWp Solar PV - 10*200W Kioto, SMA Sunny Boy 2000HF, SSE facing, some shading in winter, 37° pitch, installed Jun-2011, inverter replaced Sep-2017 AND Feb-2022.0 -
easiest place to fit it is in the fuse box
if your not competent (and qualified
) to do this yourself, then get a qualified electrician

... and 6kWh with my 2.0kWp system yesterday. I am pleasantly surprised to be getting this much at this time of year, and there is still a bit of shading in the afternoon. The highest I ever got in the summer was 12 kWh. A comparable day of unbroken sunshine exactly two weeks earlier managed only 4kWh, so things are improving rapidly.jackieblack wrote: »We did 7kWh yesterday

P.S. under 3kWh today as only hazy sunshine most of the time.2kWp Solar PV - 10*200W Kioto, SMA Sunny Boy 2000HF, SSE facing, some shading in winter, 37° pitch, installed Jun-2011, inverter replaced Sep-2017 AND Feb-2022.0
