All metering by your utility is Watt Hours, Not Volt-Amperes. However, that
is true only for residential service, and commercial metering measures and
triggers a premium rate in the event of exceeding a certain Power Factor,
and or Peak Demand consumption rate during the billing interval (the rate

Remind me We dont pay for bad power factor do we? Do our electric meters

You wouldn't even need a central instruction. It could be the same V2G
electronics, but only one way. That is, when there's a dip in voltage
charging decreases. The bigger the dip, the more the charge shuts down.
I suppose it could also react to spikes and absorb ex

moment, too.
But it wouldn't put anything back into the grid.

If you are concerned about your EV somehow supplying unwanted
current, burning up wires, juicing an electrician, etc. one could
think of several ways to electronically sense if the grid had gone
dark, or some circuit breaker in the chain had tripped.
I agree that if the GFCI didn't trip when d
I agree entirely Lee, I have been saying for a couple years that V2G is
nearly impossible to implement on a large enough scale. I have allowed the
power company to reduce demand during peak hours my water heating and air
conditioning consumption. For $14 in monthly credit. However I feel that

I agree! I just can't see how high-power V2G can be much more than a
scheme to extract money as

V2G is a type of backfeeding; 120v L1 outlets protected by GFCIs
probably won't work very well for this, but dedicated 120v outlets
exempt from upstream GFCI could.
No, a GFCI won't care if you are backfeeding power through it. All a
GFCI does is compare the hot and
