6 FAQs about [Solar dual system network meter]

Why do solar panels need a directional meter?

When solar panels generate more electricity than consumed, the excess energy is returned to the grid. In contrast, energy is drawn from the grid during higher consumption. Bi-directional meters are crucial in accurately measuring the net energy exchange and facilitating net metering for solar system owners.

How does a solar net meter work?

If you used 100 kWh of energy but generated 60 of those with your solar system, the net meter will show 40. Bi-directional meters have three display screens. One is a test screen where all lights are on. The second shows power coming in from the grid, and the third shows power going out from your solar into the grid.

What is a dual metering situation?

In a dual metering situation, you have two separate meters that do not communicate. Your original utility meter continues to tell you how much electricity you are taking from the utility. This is your usage meter (shown on the right in this photo). A new, second meter measures how much solar electricity you send to the utility.

What types of meter do solar panels use?

Solar panels typically use a variety of electric meters depending on the specific needs and requirements of the solar system. Common types of meters used with solar panels include net, smart, bi-directional, accumulation, and consumption meters. What are the different types of solar meters?

What is a second solar meter?

A new, second meter measures how much solar electricity you send to the utility. This is called a production meter or a generation meter (and is shown on the left in this photo). Both meters are tied to your electric company account. You asked, we answered—from solar costs and ROI to roofs and the installation process.
