Setup: GridBOSS, FlexBOSS 21 with 18.4 kW CS TopCON panels
My contractor is installing a Revenue Grade Meter made by Solar Data Systems called the Solar Log 350. Apparently it is installed in between the inverter and the panel according to their documentation. In this scenario they are showing it to be installed in between the FlexBOSS and the GridBOSS. https://solardatasystems.com/ArrayMeter/Updated/ArrayMeter_Installation_Manual.pdf?_t=1675720248
A few questions:
- Thoughts on the above mentioned setup
- I did noticed EG4 just came out with an announcement of the Wattnode RGM but the docs state it is not supported if the GridBOSS is in the setup.
- If they use the Solar Log 350 as mentioned above and I have batteries attached to the FlexBOSS would it even read the energy produced if it goes directly to charging the batteries and never leaves the inverter?
As an additional note. I do plan to install another FlexBOSS inverter and split the PVs among the two FlexBOSS inverters in the future which means that with the Solar Log I would have to buy another one to go in between the second inverter and the GridBOSS
Thanks,
