IAMMETER Solar PV Monitoring Solution | Real-time Solar Generation & Energy Consumption Analysis
Residential solar PV systems are widely deployed, yet many solar owners still lack a clear understanding of how their systems actually perform.
Most solar installations rely on inverter-based monitoring, which focuses almost exclusively on how much electricity the solar panels generate. While this information is useful, it does not answer the most important questions for users:
In practice, solar generation does not equal usable energy. Without visibility into self-consumption and grid interaction, users cannot accurately evaluate efficiency, optimize usage, or improve financial returns from their solar systems.
IAMMETER addresses these limitations by measuring real energy flow instead of relying on inverter-reported data.
Rather than focusing on a single data source, IAMMETER captures energy flow on both the generation side and the grid side, providing a complete and accurate view of how electricity moves through the system:
This data-driven approach helps maximize solar utilization and reduce electricity costs.
In most residential solar PV systems, a single IAMMETER three-phase meter is sufficient to monitor the entire system.
IAMMETER three-phase meters can be configured as three independent single-phase channels, allowing them to measure different circuits simultaneously. In a typical setup:
This design supports:
Detailed wiring examples are available here:
Only more complex installations—such as three-phase grids combined with three-phase inverters—require additional meters.
An IAMMETER solar monitoring system follows a simple and flexible architecture:
This architecture allows users to start with basic monitoring and gradually extend toward deeper analysis and automation.
IAMMETER-Cloud is a hosted monitoring platform designed for users who want a plug-and-play solar monitoring experience without maintaining their own servers.
With IAMMETER-Cloud, users can:
IAMMETER-Cloud is especially suitable for residential users who want clear insights into their solar performance with minimal setup.
