It seems like it would be nice to permanently install a few volt meters when I get solar installed to be able to troubleshoot the system when it has a problem. I'm sure the experts on here will know better than me.
It seems like it would be nice to have a volt meter:
1. On Grid power.
2. After the cut off switch.
3. Between the panels and the gateway.
4. On the output/input of each powerwall.
5. On the output of the gateway to the house.
6. On the line to the Car wall charger.
7. I'm guessing experts on here might be able to add to this list.
I'm thinking it would be nice to have all the volt meters together in one spot inside the garage with labels describing what they normally should be. That way one quick glance would show where a problem is.
When there is no power it's an upsetting time. Partly because of the unknown.
Does anyone else see this as a nice thing to have?
Does anyone see a problem with this idea?
I realize most people never experience a problem. If there is a problem it would be comforting to me to see it quickly without me getting a meter out and remembering where to test.
Does anyone have a suggestion as to what display meter to buy?
