Hi,
Really just for info. not a problem or anything.
(to be honest also wanting to be sure it is taking from solar as much as possible & can you be sure of that?)
I assume the new solar meter is actually what is being drawn from the array so is an accurate indications of that.
Grid tied 4kw solar, no batteries. Just been installed.
Sorry for perhaps a stilly question & the installation may have something I don't know about but I cannot work out how/why the house will use power from the Solar generations first as opposed to using the grid or a bit of both.
As far as I can see the inverter connects via isolators & the generation meter & simply into the CU on its own MCB (rcbo)
Why when I turn a kettle on should it use that power instead of drawing from the DNO meter & grid.
Thanks I/A
