I am thinking about placing PV panels on the roof but have a question. Because my FLM v2b have no spare pulse inputs, i have to use a current clamp instead.
Is a current clamp good enough for generation measuring of a PV installation ? Is it more accurate in comparison with household consumption (bad power factor at 0 consumption) ?
With the current Belgian regulations apparently, there is not necessary anymore to put an MID class kWhmeter to measure the generation to get certificates.
Another question:
If i could use port 6 to connect the SO output of a cheaper KWh meter, that would be a better and more accurate solution.
Is it possible to use port 6 as pulse input with a hack ?

i have a current clamp and 2 pulse meters i got an electrician to install, 1 for solar generation and 1 for house usage. the one for solar generation is

and the one for house usage is

http://www.schnap.com.au/kilowatt-hour-meter/single-phase-electric-kilow...

so i can collect data for the solar impulse meter and the current clamp, but im getting nothing off the house usage impulse meter.

the meters were recommended by other people using them with the v2 flusko. i have the v2b flusko.

so there dilemma is this..

1, there is no rating for the V needed for the impulse for the solar meter but it works so i dont know if its a 5v - 27v rated meter, but all the other meters they make are that rating.
2, the house meter has a volt requirement of 5v to 27v for impulse and the flusko uses 3.3 v that i measured with a multimeter.
3, the electrician broke the terminals off the household meter and in turn soldered them onto the circuit board in the meter instead of the standard screw terminal. (i dont know if he damaged anything else in the meter in the process)

is there a way to test the electrical meter to see if the S0 impulse circuit is still working when the red light blips on and off.

where do i go from here?

I have recently installed a Flukso with a single current sensor measuring consumption, and a power meter measuring solar generation.

The configuration is out of the box, reporting on WiFi and appears to be working fine. (Tip for new users, if your home wireless network is all n standard on 2.4GHz, your Flukso will see the network but fail to authenticate as it needs a b/g standard WiFi network to connect to).

I know that the reporting interface can be toggled from WiFi to ethernet, but the manual states that the WiFi interface will then be disabled.

In WiFi reporting mode, is the local interface also available over WiFi, or only accessible via the ethernet LAN port?

In ethernet reporting mode, is the local interface also available via the ethernet LAN port, only accessible over WiFi, or not accessible at all?

Hello!
Have since 2 days the Flukso in operation with 3 phases.
Basically works, but now I've found that this way too much indicating by 25-30%.
The total daily consumption is higher by 25-30% than my calibrated electricity meter.

If I, for example, in the live view a 300W lamp switch on a consumption of about 400 watts is displayed.

For a 900 watt micro wave about 1250 watts are displayed.

What can be wrong here or is the Flukso really so inaccurate? Had me at this price expected a little more. So the device is unusable.

Hello!
I have the following problem:
I have three phases, however, the main cable consists of 2 cables per phase are connected in parallel.
Can I attach a clamp with 2 cable of the same phase at the same time?

So clamp 1 of the 2 cables of first phase
Clamp 2 on the 2 cables of second phase and
Clamp 3 with 2 cable of the third Phase?

Thanks in advance
