[RE-wrenches] kwh meters
I am using an analog GE kwhmeter on an outback system with battery backup to a protected loads panel. The AC in to the inverteris attached tothe bottom of one leg of the meter and the AC out of the inverter is connected to the top of the other leg. This should give me an accurate record of just the production from the system. The idea is that the ACIN that will power the protected loads panel at night will come in the bottom of one leg and turn the meter backwardsthen exit through the top of themeter going forward thus cancelling those kwh. out. I have a neutral hooked to the meter because I am using it to record 120V but I am not getting accurate readings with this configuration. Any suggestions on metering in this case? I need a utility grade kwh meter.

Re: [RE-wrenches] kwh meters
Hi Gary, You did say you're using the neutral, so I'm assuming you've got the 5-jaw socket and meter (Form 12S). You also need to make sure the meter itself is non-detented. Once you reconfigure the socket to match the one shown in David's reference you should be good to go. Not sure which aspect(s) of utility grade you need. I'll assume you mean revenue grade accuracy. The generally accepted threshold for this is +/-2% overall. A lot of analog meters (most) are not certified as revenue grade when running in the backward direction. Forget about certified, they simply are all over the map with accuracy tolerance in the backward direction. For this reason, many were disqualified for use in Net Metering applications. Since your use is technically measuring the Net Generation, your accuracy may be off... Not as far off as some inverter manufacturers' displays have been in the past, but still possibly quite a bit off, relatively speaking. Think in terms of up to +/-5%. Don't know if this matters for your purposes or not, but I thought I'd throw it out there so you don't have to go all the way through the learning curve by yourself. Lonely curve, that one... If Net Generation accuracy is critical, you have three fine choices and many that aren't so fine. 1) The obvious easy one is to get confirmation that your meter is certified Bi-Directional /or qualified/certified for Net Metering. Occupants of Meter Meter Neverland are particularly paranoid person-objects. Gaining a qualified confirmation of said information may take some sleuthing. Don't bother trying to get information from GE. Start with the vendor who sold it to you. If you have friends who work in the meter shop of the local electric utility, you might want to talk with them. Hint: If you get a blank stare from the meter guy when you say Net Meter Just smile, excuse yourself, and go get a donut. 2) If #1 doesn't pan out, find a meter that does and use it. 3) Use two meters and do some subtraction. Pray for Sun! Matt Lafferty _ From: David Brearley Is it a Form 12-S meter? If not, that's the reason its not working.

Re: [RE-wrenches] kwh meters
Here is a repost of this information from 20067 Todd Ok, I called Jake and he forwardedme to Brent Carper (253-395-6818) who works in the Puget Sound Energymetering department. I had a long conversation with him about how tometer battery based, grid tied inverters. The form 12s meter (recommended by Outback) is designed for 120/208 3phase so it is expecting to see 120º of phase difference between thetwo legs rather than 180º,and being analog meters use the same core for both meter coils, thephysics of this would suggest even an analog meter will not accuratelyread net power produced (but it will probably be only 1 or 2% off). The best way to accomplish this is with a digital, form 12s meter. Now,not any old form 12s meter will work (sigh). These meters come in threevarieties: 1- The most common default configuration is cumulative read. This will NOTwork. 2- The other two configurations are net register or 3- dual register Both of these (2 3 above) will work, although net register willdo the calculations for you and dual register (sometimes called dualfunction) will leave you with separate buy and sell totals that willneed to be manually added together at the end of each billing cycle. As far as I now know this is accurate information, but I have severalmeters coming that I am going to test out to confirm the above details.Hopefully Outback will annotate this on their green tag meter pdf.
