I too have a similar problem. I have a solar PV system connected to a sub-board. I monitor the complete sub board from the main board with the Vue CT. Sometimes it is generating power and sometimes it is consuming power (eg at night) but it seems the Vue App only allows it to monitor one way or the other? I’m not exactly sure how CT’s work but is there a way the power can be shown as either positive or negative (consumption or production)? It shows a value either way so is this something that can be sorted by the app? Thanks 🙂

Hi, I’m John. I installed an Emporia Vue 2 around 6 months ago. I’m using it to monitor all my individual circuits (but am yet to do the mains – switchboard upgrade required) and whilst I use the Emporia app a little I tend to watch my consumption far more often in Home Assistant. Very happy so far with the Vue 2 (although the plugs could seat themselves a little better). One circuit I’m using it on has some solar generation so is usually generating during the day and consuming at night, which I’m not sure how to deal with as Vue seems to only monitor flow one way or the other. I’ll post a question or two in the forum. Cheers from Down Under.
