After a brief visit from the electrician, all is well again.
Turns out there was a bad connection on the AC isolator in the loft, with the connection on the cable insulation rather than the copper - all appears to be well now. We shall know for certain tomorrow when the sun comes up - it was dark when the system went live again. However, I'm fairly confident since the Owl meter came back up to it's usual reading straight away (0.084kw), which is a good sign.
On that note, I have so say how useful having the Owl meter is. It may not be perfect and may not be absolutely accurate, but it's a great indicator of relative output and a fantastic early warning system. Well worth the forty quid or so it cost to buy from amazon.
Just a shame to lose 4 hours or so generation on what was a very nice day for December. However tomorrow, Wednesday and Friday are all supposed to be good weather too, so here's to a good week and breaking the generation prediction for the month.
