The funny things is the inverters arrive about 2 days after I posted this, but only managed to open the box yesterday. The battery terminal stud on the growatt spf5000 ES is a metric 6mm stud., checked with a known 6mm cage nut. And I now realise that I miss interpreted your earlier post as a...
I was nearly locked in to purchase two growatt spf 5000 ES , for a single phase (220-240V in Australia) paralleled configuration, to set-up primarily for offgrid solar with approx 14kWh seplos battery, with grid supply as in essence backup. .
But I recently stumbled that there is now a growatt...
Thanks Wattmatters, cheers, I just hadn't been sure about shooting out of the house switchboard across to shed and than back to the same switchboard at house. The inverter I plan on using, the growatt spf 5000 es is offgrid in that it can only supply AC out on the load side and not...

True, I'll have all loads run from installation, hence will be using 2 inverters to increase power output. Will have just one split A/C , and induction cooktop as heavy loads, will be using standalone water heater and wood heater for heating. But I do see your point about using a transfer...
Note this is in Australia, and I'm trying ascertain whether what I would like to do is reasonable/acceptable within Australian wiring rules.
I have a rural property where the existing switchboard with incoming grid power is located at the house, but I am planning on having offgrid solar setup...
I know this is somewhat an old post, but I've just ordered a couple of these and trying to get/orders bits for installation. What is the stud diameter size for the ring terminal/lug for battery connections ?
Hi,
I've just recently set-up a growatt spf 5000 es and a seplos diy battery that has the Bluetooth bms.
The default bms setting for battery capacity was 200Ah which I've changed to 280Ah , which is the capacity of the battery, however along side this setting is SOC in Ah , as attached in...
