Venus OS Gridmeter expected Sampling Interval

Hello,

I'm using a Venus OS (Raspberry), Multiplus-2, PV-Inverter and a own Gridmeter (not official from Victron supported)

The Grid-meter sends data via MQTT to DBUS by a python script like (https://github.com/RalfZim/venus.dbus-fronius-smartmeter)

How is the expected Sampling time for the Gridmeter-Data? Every Second?

Or is it better to send e.g. every 10 seconds a averaged value of AC-power?

Best Regards, AD.

I use the ET112, and it is as near real time as the RS485 connection speed allows? So, if you are going to use it as part of a feedback control system I would suggest that you run it as fast as you can?
