That looks terrible!

Do they give you the CIU if you're not on prepaid? City of Johannesburg do not (though it would cost them nothing to do so). 

I am watching these smart meters people in the UK are getting (they have to apply and pay, but I doubt it's full price). They get a real time break down of how much they are using, how much that is costing, bill for the month and so on. So quite useful information. It seems to me that what's really happening is that they're trying to make you aware of how much you're using, which gets you thinking to how you can save.

I have seen the same happen in COJ with the not so smart meters we get. Even that, having to watch your consumption and make sure you have enough credit instead of just letting the bill arrive and be whatever it is, has the effect of making you more aware of your useage.

So really they should let us all have the CIU. "My goodness, Clara! Have you seen how much energy that toaster is using!" I think that a lot of people could make a decent saving on their bill if they knew where it was all going, which would reduce the load on Eskom. OK... conversation around the dinner table could get a bit strained.

I did get the 20 DC breaker

Hi TaliaB, this is the same spec as yours and 600v60v DC

Good day. Can you switch on an inverter without any other connections like a inverter out, solar and battery connections to see if it's working and the settings. 
Only inverter in connected to a 3 pin plug and switched on. 
Thank you
