    I have a need to monitor my mains voltage (getting as high as 264V) in order to convince my distributor that they need to do something. Has anyone got a neat (low cost) way to use the SHAC to do this? with thanks

    Might be worth checking the Solar Inverter if you have one at the site, a bunch of the crappy brands start to over volt as they begin failing.

    And while we're on the subject of inverters, if you have one you maybe able to get voltage data from it. I have a Fronius inverter and fetch power and voltage data from it via a tcp call from the SHAC.

    just to close this out. I bought a Hantex365F logger which connects to a PC and logs 6000 records before needing a reset. recommended.
