Blinky - that's the wrong meter. You've put up the E100. Mine is the E110. Small difference, but it's enough.
Mine is in the link below.

Noz,
I may well have used that extra kW's. I've been racking my head, and I've been checking my online bills. The increases started around Dec, when we got the panels installed.
I don't think the meter is at fault, seeing as the new meter was fitted at the end of March, and increases started before then.
So, Dec we got the panels fitted, and I think they are ok to be honest. What we also got installed was though was a new biomass boiler, which has an electric ignition.
I'm pondering now whether this could have been pulling a lot of current during ignition phases.
The other option was the old analogue meter not being compatible with the solar PV generation, and instead of winding backwards - it has added the PV.
I'll be getting in touch with NIE about the compatibility of the analogue meter today.
