    So, in Setup, with my Vue 3, if I decide to not use 50A CTs on my solar feeds (line-side taps) as I currently have, do I still need to acknowledge that I do have solar power being generated?  What happens in the setup and the resulting data display if I say that I don’t have solar?  Like davidawolf, I also have an Enphase system that provides all I need to know about solar production and net metering.  What I seek in the Emporia EMS is what the Enphase app cannot provide:  detailed, dissected information about household consumption for individual devices and circuits.  Ideally, I would like to get from the Vue 3 a record of total consumption, both in real time and over expanded time frames.  Right now, with 50A CTs being employed as solar sensors, I am not really getting total consumption, only net production or net usage.  In fact, “total usage” appears to add solar production to the sum of household consumption, which appears to be represented as “balance” (i.e., solar production is displayed as a percentage of total usage).  There is no total consumption figure that is displayed and graphed, as the total of all 16 circuit CTs, although the “balance” figure is at least displayed.  I would love to have total consumption from the Vue 3 for comparison to the values that the Enphase app displays.  Is it possible that this value will in fact be displayed if I say that I don’t have solar and don’t attempt to measure it with 50A CT’s?
