Luxpower monitoring why is this happening

Bobjl · 24 April 2023 at 7:34PM

I have just been looking at what my solar is up to on the luxpower monitor, and I see this. Why am I exporting at this point. Surely the battery should be providing any extra power required and that is all. Why am I exporting to the grid. Any ideas

The screen only updates every 5 minutes. At the second of update it was likely something had just changed, maybe the sun going behind a cloud or your freezer clicked off. It takes a second or two for the inverter to switch to battery and a bit of electricity "leaks" to the grid.

If you click on the little icon to the right of "normal" a few times, you can make the screen update manually.
