Hi Tim, Thank you for sharing your installation, its an awesome setup. Would you be kind enough to share the HA yaml config that you have please ? Thank you

So, the Variac test made no difference to the figures reported above. For what its worth, this ET112 will only power on once it reaches 65VAC and will turn off once it reaches as low as 25VAC. Other than that, this one is a dud.

I have a Variac available so will use that and test further.

Hi BasZ My path went along these lines of instructions: 1. Some reading about the Venus OS and Raspberry Pi Project - https://www.victronenergy.com/live/open_source:ccgx:installing_ccgx_func_on_raspberry_pi 2. The Raspberry Pi Image - https://github.com/victronenergy/venus/wiki/raspberrypi 3. Read info about the ET112 - https://www.victronenergy.com/live/energy-meters:et112 , you need a RS485 to USB interface cable 4. Follow the RS485 wiring as per "Option B: Wired connection to CCGX" on the link in no3 above. This instruction is for a single ET112 (single phase), I cant comment on the request for 3x ET112

OK, fired up the Carlo Gavazzi Configuration Software on a laptop and noticed the same figures being reported. I have added it below for anyone else that could come across an issue like this one. Screenshots showing the devices current settings: Model information, showing the maximum capabilities of the ET112 Device Settings: Consumption Variables: (attached a CVS with more data) The exported data in CSV format ET112-DIN,1,02-04-2019 19-28 - export.csv Its fun playing around with this stuff... just tired of seeing 214748364 when I close my eyes 😁

While I am waiting for feedback from the supplier regarding returns / testing, I was wondering if it would be worthwhile connecting this thing to a laptop and run the CG UCS software to see if its still sending bad info. Would this software display all the variables that the meter can report on ?

Morning, I have checked that the wiring is correct as per the diagram and they are securely fastened. At this stage its looking like the ET112 is dodge. 🙃

Thanks for your help, The product code is the same as what is printed on the side of the meter so it is the correct version, it could be a dud. I'll flash the SD card again as well just to rule out a software issue... as well as contacting the supplier for testing / replacement. For what its worth, the Venus OS reports this devices firmware as version 4. Not sure where this fits in with other working versions out there.

Just stuck a meter across the mains and its reporting 221V.

Thank you for the explanation, I'll be sure to check that out sometime in the near future. The unit is ET112-DIN.AV0.1.X.S1.X.01 REL300100000 with a Victron Energy sticker on the box.

Hi All First time post here, I have been reading a lot of the posts with interest as I am starting off on my solar journey. I have just installed a ET112 just after my mains isolator, running a Raspberry Pi with Venus OS. The ET112 is picked up and reporting usage, however the Voltage is incorrect as well as the Watts and I have no idea why. Can anyone point me in the right direction please ? My output I was expecting to see something along these lines... (taken from a demo on the Venus) Ignore Phase 2/3 Any pointers would be awesome, Thank You
