Once again it was a very successful and productive day. The system was live by the end of the day. There are still some finishing touches to do tomorrow. We had one issue where the heat pump was running, but the solar inverter was not seeing the load. I spoke to my installer and we just had to move the CT clamp.
The Shelly was installed. I can now see the load for the heat pump and the immersion. More about that in subsequant posts.
