myStrom Smartplug
I want to measure the electricity production of my balcony PV. Is this (or a similar device) available that can be operated from an external socket?
This socket measures the instantaneous consumption of the appliances connected to it. It's the same as the popular "Kill-a-Watt". So if, for example, your installation supplies 2000 W but you only plug in 30 W, the smartplug will indicate 30 W.
For what you want to do, you need something different.
Check out DISTRELEC.ch, they certainly have the equipment you're looking for under measuring instruments.
Hi morg189
The mystrom adapters are actually intended for indoor use. However, I have been using one outside in a socket box for around 7 years and it works without any problems.
