I had a big issue with Neptune because the Power statement doesn't work on the EB8's - Once a GFI trips if you look at the Amp readings on an EB8 (at least in my system) the amp draw swings from 2 to 80 and goes back and forth. The POWER statement doesn't work. Neptune says its because I have too many EB8's on the system.
Neptune said I needed the EB8-32's they had me replace 5 EB8 with EB8-32.
Last night had a GFI pop.... And the POWER statement for the EB8-32 doesn't work either.
The workaround is to have to measure watts on individual outlets. But on my EB8's there aren't things that are necessarily on 24/7 - And per Neptune it has to be something with a big draw, like a heater. In my system the heaters are all 220v and the EB8 only switches relays.
I love that to use a 'FEATURE' - we have to find workarounds on our own.
