I have a PV system which was installed for free so am very greateful to have it
The only problem is I have no way of monitoring output in real time so can only guess what the output of the solsr system is which doesn't help us use the sytem efficiently
I have contated the installers on...
Prior to our new Solar installation last week, I installed an Efergy E2 monitor which has worked satisfactory for a couple of weeks.
Perhaps telling me the obvious of which appliances use what amount of energy.
For the first couple of days after the PV installation we had poor results due to...
Hi all, I'm looking for a device that can monitor how long a boiler (Oil fired) is on for. I'm doubting there is any specific device on the market, and if there is it may be at some cost...At the moment all I can think of is bodging an electrical clock (with date display) to run when the burner...
a friend is concerned because the total generated value for her panels given on the Tigo website (optimisers were used as there are shading issues) is considerably higher than that shown on her ge. meter. The system was commissioned on 14th Jan and reading on gen meter is ~ 2/3 of the total...
Hi all I have been attemping to monitor the output of my system using an energy monitor that was provided by one of the energy companys for the purpose of measuring used energy.
I also use the Sunny Beam but this has to be prompted to interrogate the inverter and therefore will not provide an...
Does the Fronious IG35 Plus come with bluetooth built in or does it need a card?
Im looking at the Fronious IG personal display and wondering if it would work straight out of the box or is anything extra would be needed?

Hello everyone,
I'm having a few problems with linking an SMA wireless bluetooth monitoring device to an inverter.
The inverer is an SMA SB 1700 with a piggy back bluetooth module installed.
I have set up the device using netID: 2 on the piggyback module.
I can get the laptop to connect to...
Hi Folks,
I'm new here but was wandering if anybody would be kind enough to give me some advise or explain what I need to be able to monitor my PV Power One Aurora Inverter on my PC or online?
I have 16 panels (split string) connected to a Power One Aurora Inverter PVI-3.6-OUTD, I am very...
Hi
I am looking for a solution for an on-site megger. The product should be connected permanent to a generator, when the generator is turned off, i would like to do the insulation measurements remotley from a computer. I have been searching the internet, but all i can find is handheld meggers...
Hi
What monitoring systems are people fitting for customers? We have used Sunny Beams, Aurora displays and PV Solo monitors. The Sunny beams are fine but the others have caused problems. Does anyone know of a good wireless monitor that is reliable and fixes to the total generation meter...
The SolarEdge website says 'data from the inverters is transmitted to the web using an Ethernet connection or
a wireless link and can be accessed via the SolarEdge Monitoring Portal' so the data clearly has to pass through my broadband router. Is it possible to intercept it/log on to the...
Which Inverter gives the best domestic monitoring?
Have heard that the Kaco Powador 4202 local monitoring shows output to the grid as well as what is being generated, does the SMA Sunnybeam or Fronius do this?
I have roof trusses only 34mm wide and 70mm deep, will battens have to be fitted to...
I found this link
http://www.electriciansforums.net/photovoltaic-solar-panels-green-energy-forum/30915-connecting-energy-monitors-solar-pv.html
which showed the same problem with import and export being picked up on meter tails and it proposed a solution.
My electric knowledge is less...
As part of our PV installations, we were thinking of adding a system whereby we can monitor the returns from the array over the internet. We were hoping that we could show data to potential new customers of just how much electricity, Co2 and money was being saved. Also, we thought it would be...
My project use Earth Fault Monitoring
Anyway, I really want to know principle of it how it work
I just know that within this machine, a measuring signal is generated :rolleyes:
I just know that it is used for monitor insulation resistance :rolleyes:
but the other things, I don't know how does...
