      • So after receiving our PTO today I just wanted to take a minute to recap our full GPE solar journey from start to finish....

        In total it's been a full 5-months start to finish as shown below and updated in the OP Page 1 post:

        • flowing So I can confirm my utility meter was NOT swapped even with PTO granted yesterday, same as you.

          So how does that work out for us? Is it like a little kickback to JCP&L while we are now earning towards SREC's our utility credits are not being counted until the official swap?

          And interestingly enough my billing cycle that ended 9/3 was an "estimated" bill rather than an official reading and in doing so was about 300 kWh high. Interesting set of events indeed....

          Anyways, during my 1st partial day of solar run time (11:30am-7:15pm) my system generated a total of 27.17 kWh. Was surprised to see energy still trickling in so late in the day, basically until 15min before official sundown.

          • It seems like it might be grounds for a suite against the Utility for common practice of granting PTO without setting up proper metering and thus actually charging for production instead of crediting.

              your pvoutput link is not right. That is the link for you to use. instead of having "userid=67749" on the end you want "sid=XXX" where XXX is your site ID

              I assume you have a bit of a westerly facing array to be producing so late.

              • Mine meter was just swapped.... quick outage at home. Checked cameras, I see the workers there.

                • Time to upgrade my eyedro meters. Actually I'll buy the solar compatible version and move one of the existing ones to the other Tesla charger. I keep track of charger usage on the main charger. But I'll use the other for the extra charger port.

                    Thanks I'll look into that...still waiting on expanding my SE access to get the API key to feed PVoutput anyways.

                    About the meter swap, yeah I wouldn't waste my time or money fighting them, but it does seem shady....luckily as flowing just confirmed his was now swapped a day later, so we'll wait and see.

                    • I may have said already, but if you you're impatient like me and don't want to wait for full admin access, the solaredge support chat was able to generate the API key for me in just a few minutes.

                        I'll give that a shot, thanks!

                        Just uploaded my partial day 9/4 production to PVoutput manually at my edited link below. Comes up fine for me, if anyone else can confirm that would be great.

                          • What else can you do with the "full-admin" access?

                              full admin is for installers.
                              Owners should have full owner access which does show the "admin" tab but more limited.

                              You can set allerts, view graphs of all monitored spots.

                              Installer Admins can re-pair and view the online screen (interact with it actually and do anything through it can can do locally).
                              As well as change the layout and strings etc.
