I have been running with the vm-3p75 CT energy meter for a few ywars To my Victeon Cerbo GX (old school not the new compact or otherwise) On my vrm display it is always shown my loads as the grid instead of the load side I’ve tried and looked at all the settings how can I fix this? SEE IMAGES ATTACHED. On VRM online portal reads as Grid On my actual Vectron GX touch display it’s showing both the same numbers for AC input and AC loads ![Screenshot_20261008_180844_Chrome](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/victron/original/3X/0/8/0805d31d3576689d39e84bc2300a2bd1e4c83e9b.jpeg) ![20261008_180906](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/victron/original/3X/7/f/7f08d00fa383fab23cfc8e9dc65cf4106ad6373b.jpeg) ![20261008_180853](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/victron/original/3X/f/8/f84be1dcb94afbe53bd09c51247208d7adf3c111.jpeg) ![20261008_181340](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/victron/original/3X/5/9/591a679caa889214abaa574db52e0fe288acf0d6.jpeg) ---

Some questions that are going to come up: Do you have a Victron inverter/charger in the system? Is the vm-3p75 CT set as grid meter or AC load? (Has to be configured in the VictronConnect app) I’m no expert by any means, but I did just fight with one of these getting everything to show up how I wanted mostly. ---

I’m using an off-brand converter with the CTS (current meter transformers) on the two hot legs of the output wires ---

This is normal, numerous topics on this subject. The interface is built around a victron inverter and will not show as you expect it to without one. It was not intended to be used in this way. ---
