(requires a switch with performance measurement, here using the example of a Shelly Plus Plug S)
Do you have a balcony power plant and want to know how much electricity it produces? Here are two simple methods to visualize the production of your balcony power plant:
Variant 1: Integration with existing counter
If you have already recorded a different counter such as an outdoor head for electricity meters, inverters or memory, you can add this device as a switch and configure it in the settings as a power generator. With our app, you can also display the production of your balcony power plant in addition to the values of your main counter.
Variant 2: Direct recording without additional counters
If you don't have any other counter yet, you can add the connector of your balcony power plant directly. In this case, your balcony power plant is recorded and the feed -in is displayed. With other switches such as the Shelly Plus Plug S you can control your consumers or use other functions. For example, you could set up a lamp that lights up when you produce a certain amount of electricity.
With these methods you always keep an overview of the electricity production of your balcony power plant and can use your energy efficiently.
