Chargeverters are only rated for operation at up to 1,500 meters (4921 feet) elevation. That takes out much of the Sierras and most of...

No, it will use it all. Between the input and the cells the charge controller should be a switching regulator, dropping the voltage and...

As I read the graph you fed 10kW to the grid from noon to 2 PM.

Are the panels bifacial? Those are rated for the front side output only, and light on the backside gives you some bonus power. Are...

And its manual will likely tell you exactly how much genny or inverter power you need to run it under worst-case conditions. For...

Caution: Many electronics packages are NOT rated for rural Colorado style altitudes. The Chargeverter is only rated to 4921 ft...

A near-lifelong friend of mine referred to it as "The Adolescent Primate Elimination Program" and quoted Stephen King as saying that...

Also, when the first serious residential R.E. systems were going in, deployed residential meters were mostly the 1:1 mechanial models...

Don't forget to keep it dry. If the seals aren't perfect some moisture could enter. If dark, temperatures below those that damage...

Propane tanks are normally installed with plastic pipe underground and the transition to metal pipe most of the way up the vertical run...

I don't know about inspection requirements. But T-class fuses can be a source of fire, so I'd be inclined to put them in one or more...

I'd bet that's a "yes". If so, I wonder if they'll apply (all or some of) the tariff to storage systems containing Chinese BMSes. If...

If they're in a welded-jumper assembly, inside a completed storage system, with neither the system being suitable for building into an...

Two or three decades ago, when solar panels cost an arm and a leg, adding a tracker to get a 40%ish boost from a couple panels was a...

That's my understanding, yes. Typical transmission lines run AC currents per-phase-conductor in the 750A ballpark during normal...

Also: it won't be a significant issue unless you ground those many miles away panels. The two wires for each string run close enough...

It's not the DC current up one and down another of the three lines of the three-phase transmission line that's an issue. The three...

Perhaps the Nest devices were dependent on house line power and that had failed when the flaw in the power system started, sufficiently...

As I understand it: - Lithium chemistries have very low self-discharge - virtually zero, and especially just after fully charged. - So...

As to what happens to the "overflow": It heats the panels, but doesn't damage them. If the controller rejects the power by no longer...
