  • Solar panel output

    I have 10 X 400w (front side only) Jinko bifacial solar panels from Santan Solar. I tested each panel when I received them and they seemed okay. I'm assuming they should have a potential of 4000-5000 watts in perfect conditions, but I've never seen them produce more than about 2500w at anyone...
  • 6000xp Settings Explanation

    I've had my 6000xp running for about 2 weeks, but I'm trying to understand the following settings: (I'm using SOC since that's what makes sense to me, for now) #11 and #12 - what is the difference between these two settings? Cut off SOC vs. Battery Discharge Cutoff? Ultimately I want my...
  • Metal Solar Rack Energized

    I have 10 X 400 watt bifacial solar panels mounted to a metal rack/frame which is mounted to the top of my wood framed patio. The panels are wired to my EG4 6500ex inverter (I have one inverter only). Everything is working perfectly, but in the afternoon, while the system was running, I was on...
  • 6000xp Mobile App Setup Help

    I'm trying to register my account for the mobile app for my 6000 XP dongle. It asked for a distributor code. Does anybody know what I put for customer code (Signature Solar is the distributor)?

  • Overloading EG4 6000xp Legs

    I currently have my entire house running off of one EG4 6000xp (running beautifully) and the only thing left to move over to solar is my AC unit with a soft start. I'm pretty sure it will be too much, but if I give it a try, what would be the worst case scenario? What actually happens if you try...
  • Is this possible - Newbie

    If I move a few of my home's circuits from main panel to the subpanel (#5 in the picture) but put an automatic transfer switch on the lines (lines from the inverter and the wires from the main breaker) that go into the subpanel so that the ATS switches between supplying grid power or...
  • Set Battery Charge Time

    Is there a way to set the time of day (or another way) to tell my EG4 6500 when to start charging the battery? I want to limit how much grid it uses and I don't want the inverter to start charging the battery until the sun has come up more and has excess power to run my loads AND charge the...
  • How to connect batteries to two EG4 6000xp's with no battery rack.

    I do not have a battery rack, so how do I configure the wires from the 6000xp's to the batteries? Especially with the small terminal area for the cable lugs on the EG4 Lifepower batteries. Is the only way to do it is to have a bus bar? While we're at it, what awg cable should I use from the...
