Goodwe EZMeter during outage

Whenever we have an Escom outage, my Goodwe EZmeter goes off because its powered from the essential side, so no lights etc. There are no readings available then for usage of battery as well.

Is this the correct behavior? 

Surely the meter can be connected to the essential side so it works when the escom power is off?

If wired as per the installation instructions then yes, it’s normal behavior. To be honest, if the grid is down the meter adds zero value to the stats anyway.

I would imagine that SEMS and PVMaster should still show battery consumption with the ezmeter disconnected, although I never tested this myself. I seldom open SEMS or PVMaster these days.
