What to Know About Tuya WiFi Bidirectional Solar Energy Meter with CT
This Tuya-compatible meter uses a clamp-on current transformer (CT) to measure power flow without needing to break into your main wiring, and it can report bidirectionally, meaning it tracks both power you're pulling from the grid and power you're exporting back if you have a grid-tied or hybrid system.
Tuya-compatible products come from multiple manufacturers with varying specs, so the exact CT amperage rating and electrical limits depend on which specific variant you order. Getting the CT oriented correctly around the right conductor during installation also matters a lot for accurate readings, so this is worth having an electrician handle if you're not confident doing it yourself.
