Yeah I thought of that . Don’t want to lose PV generation 😂😂😂😂 It’s strange how I ( we? ) think . I’ll be absolutely determined not to draw 1kw at peak or miss 1kw of PV ( pence ) . Yet go and buy a latte for 3 quid and not even think of it 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at some of the Tesla app screen shots it details the power from SE as "solar" so its fair to assume that SE is wired into the Teslas solar input.

In either app there are only 2 means of power input ; grid or solar . Solar though should really be called “ everything else “ . As solar could be real PV or either battery discharging into the other ; or a mixture of both . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radian Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 @pocster do you have the Tesla Backup Gateway in your system? I'm still trying to get my head around the actual hardware you've got there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pocster Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 @Radian Some photos for you . SE guy came back a week or so ago to just “ do some labelling “ . I didn’t pay any attention- but look ! A schematic!!!!!! 😝 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've shown the position of the PW CT but not their own. Where is the limiter in relation to everything else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radian Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 You seem to have so much stuff in addition to what's shown on the schematic! It really needs documenting fully. Is the Tesla CT hidden in the consumer unit perhaps? The schematic shows it between the CU and the utility meter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
