<DIV>CA wrenches,</DIV>

<DIV> I'm trying to (for the sake of my
monetarily impaired customers) figure out a less expensive way to meter/monitor
small enphase systems. One of my local utilities will allow me to just use
a remanufactured utility-grade meter (ala AEE) These meters are inexpensive,
robust and accurate but only display total production. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> The Envoy retails for over $5
bills. Most of my customers are not interested in checking their PV system
on the internet, well not after a couple weeks. I can't seem to find any
requirement from PG&E other than in Section 5.1 of the guidebook:
" All systems receiving an EPBB incentive must install a production meter
accurate to +- 5% of actual system
output...." which is pretty vague.
plus the is no CSI incentive anymore.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> Anybody have a suggestion that
is different from the remanu utility meter?....and possibly gives current
wattage output, and is "approved" by PG&E interconnection?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>TIA</DIV>
