Solar / Grid monitoring for Multiplus 2

Hi all

I am trying to work out what i need to do to setup a victron Multiplus 2 ESS system with regards to monitoring incoming grid and excess solar when the incoming grid and solar connections are in the house and the Victron equipment is going to be installed is around 20 meters of cable length away

Am I correct in thinking I need a ET112 meter using a CT clamp aroung the incoming (live) meter tail and this can measure excess solar as well by seeing power being exported. Solar is AC coupled and connects to the consumer unit via it's own MCB

Any advice greatly appreciated

Thanks

Simon

Hi


Yes correct a ET112 is required for a single phase system. As this will tell the Multiplus2 what to do and were the power flow is going etc.
