Max voltage / max temperature on Eddi

remoteboy

Hi,

Quick couple of questions about the Eddi diverter. Recently had a new thermostat installed - the old one had been on it's way out for years and finally gave up the ghost. The electrician asked me a couple of basic questions that I hadn't a clue how to answer. Am sending an email to the installers but I thought the hive mind here might be a quicker source of information -

1. How do you set the max temperature on the Eddi - i.e. how does it know when max temp is reached. Or does it just take the info from the thermostat?
2. How do you / can you set the max voltage coming from the diverter to the immersion. Electrician measures it at 15A. Thermostat is max rated at 16A. He'd be happier with 12-13A.

Thanks for reading.

Hey Remoteboy

1) This was asked only last night in the PV hints and tips thread. By default the Eddi will just use the thermostat built into the immersion, but you can optionally fit the relay board, and then use 2x PT1000 sensors either. https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117882516#Comment_117882516

2) You can configure this in Advanced Settings within the Eddi, under Supply Grid – Device Limit https://myenergi.com/wiki/eddi/configuration/

Brilliant. Thanks.

Also a eddi can't supply more than the immersion would normally take on a normal switch.

Eg if an immersion is connected directly to the mains, it would pull the same as the max amount as the eddi would supply.

Volts are given, amps are taken.
