Dave,

My experience with current transformer meters (my previous house had one) is
that most of them only read the absolute value of current and will read
reverse current flow as energy usage not energy production. That meter will
almost certainly need to be replaced.

I just had a call from an electrician who has a customer interested in a
net-metered pv system.
One question he had concerned the current transformer on the 400 amp service
and if the meter will spin backwards on this
one. He says the meter is wired differently than on a system without the
current transformer. It is a single phase 240 volt supply.

Thanks,
Dave
