I've seen this before on my MIN 5000 TL XH, but it reboots once the sun is up and there is enough current for it to reboot. Are you trying to reboot the next day before the sun hits the panels?

I can guarantee you that with the grid-tied Growatt MIN hybrid inverter series (I have two 5000TL-XH units), if there is a load that is higher than the load that the inverter can supply at any given moment, the required power reaches the load from the grid. You can clearly see spikes on the...

Van-traveler86, are you 86 or were you born in '86? &8-)

OK, I think I've realised what it is you were explaining above on how you have connected the two power meters that are connected to each inverter. Would I be incorrect in saying that one of your power meters is on the power line leading to your load (house) "downstream" so to speak of the first...

I'll look forward to that. At this rate, it's possible that I still will not have solved my battery predicament by then, but I'm getting older too (63 pushing 64).

Thanks, MajicDiver. Any chance you can publish a circuit diagram of your set up, for people like me that find it almost impossible to visualise this set up without a diagram? If it were detailed enough to show the wiring, that would be fantastic. I've just been talking to a young lad from the...

Notwithstanding that you have the US version, it sounds like you have exactly the set up that I thought should work for my inverters (with separate power metres between the inverters, the power company meter and the house load). As I see it, this would be like two separate solar plants and...

Spanish Flyer, I would particularly like to know what solution you found to using your Growatt MIN 5000 with your other inverters. Thanks.

There's another problem too with the Growatt Min hybrid series. Apparently, if you have more than one connected to the same smart meter and you connect their HV battery stack to one of the inverters, it doesn't work! I'm still not sure why and I'm trying to find out. I have a 10KW array and two...

Hi, Spanish Flyer, MajicDiver and others that might be able to help. BTW, I am also in Spain. I (foolishly I think) decided to forego learning too much about solar and let my installer come up with a quotation. Based on a desire to zero my electricity bill (like MajicDiver) my only two requests...

Dear everyone, Help! Please feel free to laugh at my ingenuity. I'm getting old (I’m running out of time) so I decided I would trust an installer to bang in a grid-tied 10KW photovoltaic system at my place, and I assumed that everything would go like clockwork, without a contract and purely...
