I thought I saw someone post a link in a thread recently to someone who had set up a portal monitoring almost everything in their house (from generation to electricity consumption, phone calls etc.). I'm pretty sure it was on this forum, however I can't find it.
Could anyone help?
thanks

Hi,
I have a customer that is convinced that his generation meter is not calibrated and possibly not Ofgem approved. The type of meter we most often install for domestics is a L&G E110 5235 (A in this case). I quit happy the meter is approved and calibrated. For the customers sake we replaced...

I'm hacked off that the mainstream press lumps nuclear in with renewables. I'm hacked off that we keep hearing about 'renewable energy subsidies' when other generation subsidies get no mention. I'm hacked off that any stronger language than hacked off will get me censored or banned from the...

Hi, I am new so I need to get some posts going. I am not a registered spark I am more of a technical contracts engineer. I am looking at if it possible to have a generator which backs up the mains supply (auto change over) but also is connected in parallel so can export to the grid. I am not...
Hi chaps,
Tell me, is a 3 phase elster generation meter wired the same way as a single phase, i.e the inverter cable on the left and the supply cable on the right of the elster 3 phase generation meter. Make sense?
Received a letter today from my FiT provider – Green Energy UK. They are saying that Ofgem are changing the rules so that customers can no longer provide their own generation meter readings. Photographic evidence is also no longer acceptable.
They propose therefore to employ a third party to...

Being in the darkest North I was wondering what you guys in the enlightened South were generating from 4kwp systems. We get between 3,300 kwh and 3,600 kwh depending on panel/inverter configuration for South ish facing roofs. I'm not bothered particularly about panels/inverters etc for this...
