What you will see

  • ID045 or ID105
  • House consumption looks wrong or zero
  • Export limit not working, or ID167 Feed-in Limitation derating at odd times

Why it happens

The CT or meter tells the inverter what the house is using and exporting. A wrong-way CT, loose wire, or meter without power breaks this.

Solar keeps generating, but export limit and consumption figures go wrong.

SOFAR on-grid and hybrid systems with a CT or meter.

What you can check yourself

  • Compare app readings with your utility meter
  • Note whether it started after a meter change or electrical work

What not to do

  • Do not open the meter box or move the CT

When to call us

  • Check CT direction and wiring
  • Check meter connection and parameters, as SOFAR advises
  • Verify readings after the fix

After a meter change

This often follows a FESCO or LESCO meter replacement. Our teams recheck the CT and meter link.
