These cause a reactive current, and together with the low cost measurement type we use \u00a0(current instead of power), this resulted in the power shown at night.<\/p>\n<p>As a side note, on our latest pricelist you can already see the Wireless AC Sensors. These are an alternative to the AC Current Sensor. It consists of a gateway, that connects to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/panel-systems-remote-monitoring\/colorcontrol\/\" target=\"_blank\">Color Control GX<\/a>\u00a0via Ethernet. And to that gateway you can connect one or more single phase max 25A wireless sensors. These sensors and the gateway communicate via DECT. All this will be supported in the next Color Control GX version, which I expect to be available in 4 to 6 weeks.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions, please use the comments below.<\/p>\n<p>Best regards, Matthijs<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The AC Current Sensor Assistant has been updated: it no longer reports PV power at night.
