Also by now it would be known, and there would be shielding in the cables or instructions to run them on separate conduits. 

ISTM The most common problem we find here with Deye/Sunsynk is CT coils the wrong way around. Which I don't think is a Sunsynk thing, it's just because that is such a common inverter here. 

May be it's just me but I find a wrong polarity CT is purely on the shoulder of the installer. The manual is clear on this. The fact that different inverters have the arrow in different directions is not the makers mistake. 

I assisted a forum member when his major installer in a Western Cape large town/city indicated that no inverter can work with PV only and grid and must have a battery just shows the the depth of interest of some installers.

I think you're right. The CTs don't install themselves.

From this we see a 107W being exported on the C phase. This is not prevented by the CT. So my call remains a CT wrong way connected. This is being charged as power used by the prepaid meter.
