Do I need 3 clamps

by Bigbillyg on

Hi all

I live in Australia will my unit come with an Australian plug?

Also I have 2 solar systems and want to monitor both and the house.
So do I need 3 clamps
1 for house consumption
2 for solar unit 1
3 clamp for solar unit 2

Thanks all for your help
Brett

Hi all
Yes the kwh meters are available in Australia.

Could you use
1 on the house 100ap
1 on solar 1
1 on solar 2

And will the flukso unit upload all 3 as different unit?

Thanks brett

Hi Brett,

I'd recommend you use a kWh meter for monitoring PV. Make sure you install the kWh meters and/or the clamps in the correct location to have a clean separation between generation and consumption. See [1] and [2]. If you decide to use more than 2 meters with pulse output, you'll require an FLM02B. And we now ship the FLMs with AU power adapters for AU/NZ orders.
