My generation clamp shows PV generation only, which is fine

My household consumption clamp used to show just consumption before I had PV installed and all was well.
But now i've had PV installed this 'consumption' clamp is showing what I think is a combination of PV generation AND household consumption.

How can I set up measureit so that both generation and consumption is accurately posted to PVoutput?
Would you recommend two separate sensors, each with one clamp?

Then does the consumption somehow need to be current reading from the 'consumption clamp - generation clamp = actual consumption?

Thanks.

Hi Mick,

you are right. The main sensor shows the sum of all clamps. If you want to have separate data from all devices you had to setup a clamp for each device and post the data separat for each clamp. The consumption switch does only change the kind of how the data is submitted to PVOutput. It has no influence of the main function from the cc device.
