Have you perhaps got an 'immersion diverter' there which is getting confused by a battery discharge looking like extra generation ?mickyduck55 said:
It is quite a high "pull"... 1.3 kWhBoiler off, yes I have fridges but they are running 24/7 so I wouldn't expect this surge? Hot water is a possibility but not likely as it is heated with a proportional controller that maybe is triggering it but if it was the immersion it would be 3 kWh and for a much longer duration?NE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq51 -
If your immersion diverter uses proportional control, it will vary the power depending on what it thinks is available so could use anything from a few hundred watts to 3kw.mickyduck55 said:

Hot water?
something electrical locking in to fire something else e.g boiler?

Hi Mickey, it's possible you were seeing a software glitch.
This is my two systems this morning
Note the 1kw spike
And note the lack of 1kw spike.
Here is the funny thing, there is only 1 shared ct clamp for both systems, and the master shows no spike, while the slave shows a spike.
Edit. 1 shared clamp on mains, they each have their own ct clamp for generation as they are tracking two different arrays, hence why solar is differentWest central Scotland

Does anyone know if the new pylontech Us2000c is compatible with the previous generations?
Finding a retailer online selling it for 730, same price as the previous generation. Bloody good deal given they're selling for 900+ on ebay!5.41 kWp System, E-W. Installed Nov 2017

Think my router (Sky hub) must've started blocking it for some reason.
