Thanks the electrician fitted the new consumer unit today and did a fabulous job of it however I noticed after he had gone that the diverter ain’t diverting anymore so that’s something to look into tomorrow- the ct clamp is on the right cable and the right way round so I’m not sure what’s up ?

Managed 10kWh even with the mains off until nearly 4pm!

A PB yesterday for the year on the solaredge system (25.3kWh). Not sure what the Victron system put out as currently in Turkey enjoying the solar here. Our son is using the house while we are away and remote fiddling with HWT, SH & EV charging is working out fine. :)

25.4kWh yesterday. I think that marks a best ever day for me! Managed to use it too because of convenient PHEV usage (3 local trips with big gaps for charging between).

Corner was turned here at Nowty Towers mid month, almost zero import since then and even managing to slowly charge my empty Tesla after a long drive back from my folks. And it has not been sunny everyday either, home battery has been hovering between 10% and 50% all week but today I'm hoping to get it full before tomorrows poor weather.

A bit of high cloud today but still looking like making the best day of year so far as the days are getting longer.

Edit - Just passed 63kWh for the day which is a new record for this year. Conversely WT1 looks like having a record low for the year since operation began, looking at a big fat zero.

2nd Edit - Apparently the datafeed is down again at WT1 so maybe not quite a fat zero but still will be very low.

Out on this gulet yesterday. One of its 4 solar panels broke free with a gust of wind severing the uv degraded cable ties holding in place. Got it down and safe as it was fully free , squint on its other panels and just waiting for another gust to lift it clean off. After clearing the top deck of gulet of all people the rest were secured as all ready to go too. Full sized panels, life enders! Great day out otherwise. :o
