I currently have a Giveenrgy AC battery and a single solar system. I have a CT clamp on the solar system feed so the givenergy display can show me the solar inverter output. I am about to install a second separate solar system ( so that I can continue to receive the FIT payment on the original one). How do I add a second CT clamp for the second solar system and do I need to configure the system?
I would think you would still need just one CT clamp. Connect the 2nd solar system to the first one AFTER the generation meter and BEFORE the CT clamp. That way the generation meter is still only showing the original systems output but the CT clamp is registering BOTH systems output.
kwmc alternatively, fit an EM115 to monitor generation from one of the PV systems and use the directly-connected CT for the other.
pearnsh install a second separate solar system
If it's PV + battery, it will be a hybrid and therefore will need it's own EM115 meter with CT clamp.

That is what I would like to do… connect a CT clamp on my solar feed, directly to the inverter… question is… what parts do I need?
Thanks
