      I just installed my first 2 devices, and I’m confused by the results.

      I plan to eventually have 5 Vue2 devices in my house.

      I have 2 issues that I’m trying to work through.
      1.  The app tells me that one of the 200A sensors on Panel C is reversed.  I checked, it’s not
      2. The total power shown from Panel C is GREATER than the total power shown from panel A.  This does not make any sense to me.

       

      Additionally, as a separate question:

      1. When I add the second device to the same panel, I assume I should not connect the 200A sensors and just nest the device under the first one.  Is that correct?

       

      The setup is as follows:

       

      400A Split Service

      Panel A
      200A Leg to Panel A (~32ckts)
      Has several 240V Circuits which have yet to be identified.  All showing no usage
      Device 1 (Panel A1) has the mains monitored, as well as 16 circuits NOT including the subpanel
      On Panel A there is a 100A Circuit going to panel C

      Panel C (100A Subpanel connected through Panel A)
      200A Sensors on the feed from Panel A.  L pointing TOWARDS the Panel [The app complained about the contacts being reversed, but they are not]
      8 Circuits monitored on Panel C (Includes 2 240V circuits with only 1 leg monitored.  A water heater (30A) and a steam generator (50A) if it matters)

       

      Future plan:
      2nd Device in Panel A for remainder of circuits
      3rd, 4th Device in Panel B (Pretty much the same configuration as Panel A)
      5th Device in Panel D (Pretty much the same as Panel C)
