Today I uploaded data for the last 3 months using the bulk loader. No problems there.
Examined charts shown in “Your Data”. On the Daily TOU chart, imported energy (checked as far back as the start of 2025) is shown as Peak. I have been on an Electric Driver tariff with British Gas since before the FOXESS system was installed in Aug 2023, so I would expect to see a mix of Peak and Off-Peak imports. According to BG, during September 2025, of the 268 kWh imported, 240 kWh was off-peak.
I looked through the CSV Loader configuration and see that Import Peak and Import Off-Peak are at positions 10 & 11. Examining the data I just uploaded I see that:
- positions 1-5 are populated
- positions 6-9 are null
- positions 10 & 11 are zero
- position 12 is populated
- position 13 is zero
- position 14 is populated
- positions 15-17 are null
What does a value of 0 for Peak and Off-Peak Import signify?
How does my inverter know when the off-peak period is?
Should the load configuration allow me to set the off-peak period prior to uploading?
Thanks for your help,
Richard
