Installation

Questions about installing and configuring a Fluksometer.

CT clamp

anyone know of decent 3rd party CT clamps?

I have 2 running on the parents flukso and corrected the values using the known value of the 3600w hot water element obviously keeping it on the same item its going to read the same so one works fine

but when I use the other one on the normal load it is way out.
I have to times the value by 0.738011 ie 3/4 of what the reading is showing. but when on the normal house load its reading 2800 - 3600w still and it should be around 200w to 500w unless cooking or aircon/heating.

the graph of my flukso stopped

Good morning, I ask for help.
Yesterday at 9:15 am the graph of my flukso stopped while continuing to work.
Thank you

Flukso and a myriad of items damaged by Lighting strike.

After a very close !!! lightning strike the power on one circuit went in our house.
After a bit of investigation...
ALL the SMOKE was emptied from the following....

1. Flukso
2. Ethernet wall plate and RJ45 plugs.
3. 16 way switch about 20m away.
4. Ethernet cables somewhere under the house (No continuity)
5. 2 x DIN rail energy meters used to supply SO (Pulse to the Flukso) mounted in switchboard.
6. 27" pc monitor
7. A few flashovers around the house at various plugs and sockets.
8. Maybe some more compromised things I am yet to discover!

I happened to have a 2nd hand Flukso I purchased off a member about 5 years ago. Took some work but finally got it going ready to put in the meter box along with some re wiring and 2x new pulse energy meters.
Added it to my Flukso account and removed the old one.
Used its Sensor and Token numbers and got it also showing in PVOUTPUT.org :)
The above work took about 2 full days of messing around ....
Could not get the same type of Pulse meters I originally had so I had to change the wiring layout in the switchboard. Lots of trial and error to get the correct Consumption and Solar data.

I tracked what I believe was the reason the lightning tracked thru my place and took out the stuff it did.
I had a pulse magnetic reed in my water meter 30m down the front garden. I believe the lightning used the cat5 cable laid into the garden beds to have a look into my place :)

Looking for another cheap spare now ;)
Note: I use 9v on my Flukso now. I think the original 12v supply was what compromises the early builds.

Deprecated?

Hi all,

Is this project still alive? Or has it been silently deprecated?

Thanks,
Nico.
