Charger and solar

Hello,

Can anyone help me understand how to connect my GivEnergy ev charger to solar (non GivEnergy inverter)

Many thanks

Claire

Select Enable Solar Charging in Settings in the app
It’s also a good idea to Prevent Battery Discharging to EV
What tariff are you on? I never use solar to charge the car. I use Intelligent Octopus Go and pay 7p kWh to charge the car and it pays 15p kWh for all we export. I does not make ant sense to charge the car on those rates.
Hope this helps.

We don’t have a battery.
I gave them a call and apparently we need a CT clamp and 2 cat 6 cables. We put one in, and the house is now finished and plastered and ready to move in. I didn’t realised that the CT clamp needed to be hard wired with a cat 6 to the charger as well, our prev charger, zappi, used a wireless connection via the hub I think
