Unless you have an interconnect agreement, or eventually planning on having one, I would avoid using any pirate grid tie setup. The...

You really need to start with a FINAL plan, then see how you can break that up into smaller pieces that will eventually get you to the...

FYI: the electrolyte expands as it charges, so you should only top batteries off when they are fully charged.

If for the sake of conversation apply some NEC. T taps are allowed for short distance without a fuse or breaker. Low voltage class 2 is...

Yes, every wire in your system needs to be protected from being damaged. I am electrician, not an EE, but that fuse you've mentioned...

I used https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/mpd-memory-protection-devices/BF303/2330519 and...

Consider silicone insulated wire. If the wire burns up, insulation will contain it so doesn't bridge to anything else. Fast blow is...

I will have to look that up, that would mean no code violation then. These "manipulate" up to ten amps, so they are a little over 100...

It's common for people not to fuse balancing leads. The logic, if there is any, is that the wires are thin enough that they will self...

i just let that register

I found 10 x 38 mm fuses at 11 amps for DVMs. Buss and various Chinese manufacturers sell them. I cannot find a DC rated fuseholder. If...

This is my thought as well. Especially with the control wire on the victron shunt coming with an inline fuse

Very interesting...Thank you for taking the time to reply. Do you think/feel/know, that if the balancers can "shift" up to ten amps, an...

If you would take the credit, then we would have something to complain about though...

I've used a Hitachi VFD with a 2 HP 3-phase pool pump for about 15 years. At default switching frequency it made audible noise, so I...

I’ve been operating submersible well pumps for more than four decades. I’ve installed, repaired, and replaced many pumps. The reason for...

Shouldn’t any control component with dinky little wires, attached to a battery, be fused? We have all 16 LifePO4 batteries (4S4P) now...

Perhaps these are only half baked? :rolleyes: Those are some thick and dense interior walls!!

We are looking for battery disconnects rated at greater than 48Vdc and 300amps. Also, this says " Solar DC Isolator", I think this means...

If people are brave enough to post details of their accident for others to learn from, I think they deserve that comments are moderate...
