A heads-up has limits

Inverter showing overload?

High Load uses the total load reported at each five-minute check. It cannot identify an appliance, catch every short surge, or guarantee a warning before an inverter trips.

Ungrid only reads supported cloud telemetry and never changes equipment settings. Use the equipment’s own safeguards and operating guidance for urgent conditions.

A useful next step

Set a limit. Get context. Decide what can wait.

Connect a supported cloud system that reports usable total power use, then choose a limit that makes sense for your home and backup plan.
