That's what the solar company told me.

Thanks anyway.

I was thinking about it just then and I think Net Metering solves this.

Even if my solar is generating say 2Kw/h per phase. Total 6kw/h.

And a Heatpump is drawing say 4 kw/h and it is only attached to Phase 1. Essentially, on Phase 1 it is taking 2kW/h from my Solar and 2kW/h from the grid.

But because the other 2 phases, assuming nothing else is drawing any power of note, is generating 2kw/h each and sending it to the grid, my Net is 6-4 = 2 kw/h so the electricity company is netting it off and saying I am selling 2kw/h to them.

I think that's the answer.

You cannot "draw" from Solar panels, you surely have a power supply (battery) that is charged from the PV and grid connected yet some of the terminology you are using you make it sound like you are off grid

Also sounds like you have dodgy regulator or invertor on the phase that is running at the higher voltage. Actually the whole installation sounds dodgy as your phases are way out of balance

If I were you I would engage a professional rather than ask on a Rugby League forum

Bryce on bench with Jnr would be fine.
Doorey as 18th-19th man is fine
Matalele has proven nothing and tbh either has Guymer or Brazel yet. Fingers crossed

I have zero issue with him asking me an electrical question. Unfortunately I don't know all the answers. But same goes for most people on here. If curious about something happy to help and give advice. I have been doing it for 25yrs so it isn't like he is just asking a random footy fan.
