  • Post in thread: Transfer switch giving me choice of grid or solar

    Wow!! Really helpful. This gives me some insight to improve. I ordered the 2 pole today instead of the 3 pole. To answer your question on inverters, I had the 6000EX and I had an offer to upgrade to the 6000XP at the time for little to no cost. I did consider the 12k and 18k but did not want to...

    Thx
  • Post in thread: Transfer switch giving me choice of grid or solar

    Totally agree. I was concerned as where to make my ground bond for the solar panel since the inspector wants ground bond at my disconnect before the transfer switch. This means I don't have ground bond at my main panel and would need it somewhere along the way for my solar panel to operate...
  • Post in thread: EG4 6000XP PV connection

    Current wiring I have 7 panels on the first 4 inverters MPPT #1 nothing on #2 with no panels on the 5th inverter. I do have more panels coming in the future. I did the EG4 calculator with my lows reaching -15 and my highs at 114 degrees. This is where I got the 11 panel number. I attached the...

    I like that idea. My thought was to do 10 per inverter once I receive more panels. One good thing for me is I do not have shade.

Out of this combiner panel I go to my transfer switch (Siemens DTNF324R by the way I'm switching my neutral so nothing...

    Sorry, I got so carried away explaining my system I forgot to ask my main question. Do I ground Bond in my inverter combiner panel or do I enable the ground bond within the menu of my EG4 inverters? Or does it matter where it bonded Inverter menu or combiner panel? Seems to me when I transfer...
  • Post in thread: EG4 6000XP PV connection

    I am running 5 - EG4 6000XP inverters. I have 30 - 395W bifacial panels. According to the EG4 panel sizing calculator I can have 11 panel per MPPT 1 string each meaning I can have 22 of my 30 panels connected to the first inverter. My question is do I have to have panels connected to each...
