    Growatt sc4880 volts but zero amps

    It’s funny you say that the batteries are at 13.4. So if the batteries are fully charged no more amps will be put through?

    Growatt sc4880 volts but zero amps

    Have a new Growatt sc4880 mppt. Seems to be working fine. My panel is putting out 20-30v but zero amps (0.0). This was later this evening with zero sun and quite overcast and cloudy. I’m just curious if that is normal and it’s just so low that it wasn’t reading at all. Picture of panel tag...

    CONNECTING SOLAR

    Curious... why do I need an 80-100amp fuse from the batteries to the scc, when the scc is only converting 20-25 amps from my panels? How am I supposed to run 2ga from an scc that only takes up to an 8ga... so confused

Hoping someone can tell me how to wire them from the Y to the mppt... so many conflicting ideas people have... Do I put an inline fuse on each panel(15a) or just after the...

    Another auto gen start question

    I have not yet, but I can say I am very disappointed in the Renogy 2000w inverter/charger I got. It lasted about a month and only used it maybe 4 times before it stopped charging or letting pass through shore power.
