I just built a 18 Solar paneled carport for my dad. The wiring is all setup to lead to the control box, batteries and inverter placed in my Dad's home approx 10 ft from the home's main breaker box. I made everything assuming it would be simple to connect to the home's main breaker box.
The main line from SoCal Edison is coming into a double pole breaker switch that can be turned on and off and the system has only one MAIN line in. I thought there might be more than one main line available but the product manual i found says there in only 1 main in line.
Therefore, unless someone can instruct me correctly, I will have to find an licensed electrician who will make another Breaker Box or reconstruct the current one to allow 2 Main IN-Lines I can switch between.
I believe I need a licensed electrician at this point unless I can be advised and instructed to do it properly on my own in the next couple days.
I think I will need approx 16 ft of properly gauged wire from inverter to a new breaker box allowing me to switch between main lines in. The Inverter and batteries will be need new addition MAIN line in box inverter.
MY INVERTER:
It seems from page 53 of this breaker box specifications there is only 1 space for a MAIN line in. I imagine a will have to hire an electrician to maybe create another panel box? Not really sure what to do now. . .
Can anyone suggest a qualified electrician I can hire in the Palmdale California area?
I am trying to connect a 1.8W 18 panel system with a single phase Pure Sine Wave Inverter of 3500W to the home's main line with the main break pictured. I need someone to connect the Inverter through the Main Box to power the home electronic sockets.
