I have an Emlite ECA2 MID-approved meter fitted which records solar generation

I've looked up what that is.
It must be on the AC output of your inverter.

Having such a MID certified meter is a requirement for exporting to the grid.

But a meter on the inverter output would not have spotted the problem I'd discovered.
It only records what the inverter has successfully handled.

Right, got you.

 

Samsung 12kW gen6 ASHP with 50L volumiser and all new large radiators. 3.645kWp solar (south facing), Fox ESS inverter.
Solar generation completely offsets ASHP usage annually. We no longer burn ~1600L of kerosene annually.

@old_scientist As another example of errors / differences of opinion on amount of juice produced, here is my Emlite meter and also the figutes from the Enphase software and both were commissioned on the same day. Regards, Toodles.
