I feel bad for #Enphase engineers, customers, and support. Apparently some software update got pushed out to gateways, and now lots of systems aren't operating correctly.

Mine decided to just let batteries drain below my reserve capacity last night. Apparently Enphase is aware and working on it

This is a diagram of our power intake while firing my kiln on #solar energy while grid-tied. You can see how the relays are cycling the elements on & off by the intermittent spike in power draw. It’s overcast today, and my kiln (plus central air & other appliances) requires more energy than the panels can collect, so it automatically pulls from the grid. #Enphase

Hebben meer mensen met een #Enphase systeem hier last van? Dit is bij mij al een paar dagen zo.

De panelen werken gewoon, maar ik heb geen rapportage.

#Eversource replaced my electric meter #today with a smart meter. Ref: https://www.eversource.com/residential/account-billing/smart-meters
During a normal electric outage our #Enphase #solar storage system kicks in automatically so we don't even notice, but while they were replacing the meter everything had to be shut off completely for safety, so our power went out, just for a few seconds since the guy doing the work knows his stuff.
It took about 20 minutes after that for the Enphase system to come fully back online. D'oh.

Working to modernize our electric grid in Massachusetts and empower customers to make informed decisions about their energy use.

Decided to recreate the energy graph that #Enphase provide in their app in #HomeAssistant, not sure why I waited 18 months to do this. Took me a couple of attempts to set up the helpers correctly and ensure consumption was always negative. Example from yesterday looks rather good, might make the numbers above the graph daily totals instead of 15 minutes averages 📈

Then at 8.23am my integration failed again and #Enphase have done another update, this time you can't log in locally at all without a JWT supplied by them. ARGHMMMMMMM
I've been troubleshooting some consumption reading discrepancies on my solar installation and these terrible power factor numbers are leaving me with questions.
This was when a washing machine started running, but could a load really be that reactive?
I'm also suspicious that both legs are showing exactly the same consumption, which I wouldn't expect.
