IH kW PV display?
IH kW PV display?
Wondering if any of you guys have an IHD system that can be hooked into home WiFi and convert the live voltage feed from the panel cables at inverter to kW via ct clamps?

Re: IH kW PV display?
Seems like you would need a hall effect CT clamp to measure the DC current from the panels:

Then you also need to know the voltage.

We have an ‘eco eye’, it has a clamp on current meter, and also a clip on capacitive voltage measure - this tells it the phase of the voltage (but not magnitude), so it’s a cut above just clamp on stuff. Uses batteries for TX and RX (display), but they last about 2 years. The display has a serial port - you get I and V streaming out of it, guess you could push it in a Raspberry Pi or some such mains powered kit to wifi it? I think new eco eyes have Ethernet too. I’d expect anything that can do wifi would need to be mains powered.

This is "close". Spec says 400V DC but I would investigate this before purchase. But has remote wireless display, though 1 review says limited range (3m) .

Easy to fit, no mucking about.
3 separate CT’s to monitor 3 separate circuits or 1 x3 phase Incomer.
Good App.

Connects to Wi-Fi.
Only needs a single L&N connection to reference the voltage/power/does, does power factor too
