They haven't issued it yet.
when was your final bill from energia say it was to?
Better not be, I exported 8kWh today lol.
Pinergy insist that everything will be backdated to the time I switched which was September 16th. I have my doubts. I suspect it'll be back to sept 26th when they contacted Energia to take over the supply.
Mine still hasnt shown up!
What happens then Phil? Deemed export during that period?
My data was live on the ESB portal within days, but on Friday, 29 days after install, Pinergy still couldn't see it.
They and ESB both said I had to wait beyond 30 days.
is there any reason the smart meter data is 3 days out?
Yeah that's the thing that you get texts to avoid use at certain times, should get a gift card for it. (And filling out the survey after)
Thanks for that. Miine is getting installed soon.
Is that the only thing to sign up for?
I think you are possibly good to go when your data starts appearing on the esbn website. (Also sign up for "is this a good time" or whatever it's called now)
Is there a way to check when the smart meter is configured?
I've heard it can take up to 30 days
Sorry to be cutting across you Bobeagle
Thanks! That’s exactly what I would have done 😂
Thanks, I’ll try get my hands on one. Had a quick google and some places hire them out!
Thanks for that.
...and not hung off a rafter!
Pull the attic ladder off it's rails first too, get it out of the way.
Pulleys and a snatch block. If you could get a ratcheting one could be useful.
Chain hoist?
Does anyone have any tips as to how best to lift a 50 kg dyness battery into the attic without ending up in the chiropractors? It’s currently sitting in my sitting room floor where my 3 year old is using it as a trampoline.
Thanks
Doubt it is NTP specifically, suspect it is synced with the 2G network.
Then whatever way it goes, that will be the post to Sticky
Yeah I think it does sync, mine is spot on.
I'm expecting it to change to winter time.
The DN time periods will still change afaik. That's something we can test
So does the new smart meter sync with NTP, and what will the times then be on 01 Nov and moreso 01 Apr 2024 ?
Or is it the other way around. Lets step this out in 30 min intervals.
Yep, got it backwards
your night time is currently from 23:30 - 8:30
and then goes back to 22:30/7:30
@graememk See comments in bold
What time is on your meter when it is 14:00? 13:30
If the meter was correct it should be 13:00.
But you said it's 30 mins slow from actual time, so at 14;00 it will show 13:30.
During summer time that would mean your night rate is from 12:30am to 9:30(actual time) That was my thought initially, but I noticed I used one day unit this morning between 9 and 9.30 when i checked the meter.
TIL I always thought it was Irish Summer time.. a bit like BST.. But no we had to be different.
I know the plan? proposal for scrapping DST is to stay on IST year round. I'm all for that too.
Well actually.... Irish Standard Time is UTC+1, which takes place during the summer. We then operate negative daylight savings time during the winter months. It has the same functional effect as our neighbours in the UK, but their standard time is UTC+0 during winter and then add an hour during summer months.
Daylight savings push us to UTC +1
What time is on your meter when it is 14:00?
During summer time that would mean your night rate is from 12:30am to 9:30(actual time)
And in winter timer it will be from 23:30 to 8:30 (actual time)
Duble check those summer times... from this thread - mine is on untill 9am at the moment with EI. I just asked saem question a few days ago in this thread!
https://www.boards.ie/discussion/2058316513/ei-night-rate-times-summer-time#latest
Ok, so as UTC doesn't change all year, and my meter is UTC +30 mins, my current night rate is:
2230-0830.
When the clock changes in winter it will be:
2230-0730
Great question. We should answer and sticky this since it will come up every spring and fall!
I think I am correct - but someone check for sanity.
The Meter. The time on this is never going to change - its locked to the same time all year. SO for exmaple mine says 8:55 today when it is 9:55 am.
The inverter. The time on this is updated by you - and can "lag" ie be slower or faster. Advisable to keep an eye on it. It can also forom time to time change based on reboots or updates driven by the you or support remotely! Best to make sure its not drifted too far from the Supplier time!
The Supplier Time. You will have to manage what is the right time for charging/discharging etc based ont the tariff you sign up with the supplier. This is different for different tariffs - and can make a difference on what you pay. Not going to provide a general answer here as all tariffs and supplier potentially are not the same.
I bake in a 5 minute gap between the start of night rate and when i start charging. I do the same on ending charge around the chnage to the higher tariff of day rate. This allows a little drift to not affect me too much.
TLDR; add 30 minutes to your calculations of charge time.
