Yes - looked up details after installation as BG insisted it would be OK. BG are installing with solar PV but I now find out EON and nPower aren't.

Today the instant reads are really odd. 0W one moment then 1.2 kW the next without turning anything on. The solar PV's are working - we can see generation and based on yesterday we should be generating more than enough even to cover that. We only have 2.5 kWh panels operating over 100% on last FIT entries.

Don't see where it gets 1.2 kW from. The only device on is the dish washer and the background devices which late last night's read around 150-200W. Very odd.

Still since we have the last few years worth of daily readings we will have some ammo to work with BG. Their smart meter tech support didn't seem surprised so it can't be uncommon.
