Not a great day here despite lots of lovely sunshine.
Battery isolator switch has been tripping now and then and the electrician picked today to swap it for a new one. Turned up at 11am, turned off the system then realised he'd got the wrong part. Left to go on a shopping trip and had problems sourcing the right isolator. Finally got it fitted at 2pm so we'd missed all the best sun.

Has no-one else had snow? I generated 0.1kWhrs each yesterday and today. And just listened to two days of snow fall off the panels! Was a somewhat unnerving sound. But oh wasn't worried, even though one lot of snow landed on his car.4.3kW PV, 3.6kW inverter. Octopus Agile import, gas Tracker. Zoe. Ripple x 3. Cheshire2
