I have a Brultech ECM-1240 and noticed that when my either of the refrigerator circuits I'm monitoring turns on or off, my whole house power only changes by half that amount. If my one fridge uses about 300 watts, when it turns on or off, the whole house power only changes by about 150 watts. Any ideas what might be happening? FYI, chart is from tenWare software.
The Plot Thickens:
After checking the polarity on my CT's (which appear to be correct.) I tried turning on another circuit to test further. I turned on the heating cables under the floor tile in my hot tub room. Both that circuit and my whole house power when up by 410 watts.
Why would the whole house power follow that change correctly while not following correctly when either of my two refrigerators turn on or off?
