Right - I missed that it was PV looking at the zoomed-in picture. Thought it was AC. PV is moderate current. So long as the joints are...

That's the funny thing about electricity that I've learned so far. Some would do this, some would do that. Tim would go to the output...

I know this will make Tim and others gag, but I think she'll hold. This type of install is actually shown on the last page of midnight...

Connect it to the output of the inverter? I'm not exactly sure what you mean by this. If I've got the mppt's covered and no grid power...

The SPD connected to a 2P breaker on those bus bars, will protect everything from a surge on the grid lines. But it's pointless, if...

I just thought of something. My goal with solar was to be off grid. I'm closing in on that goal. Cut these stupid power poles down...

Those EE types ... sheez 😁 Calling that connector a Polaris is kind of like calling those fancy paper napkins you blow your nose into...

I got an email yesterday from a tech at senville. I'm pretty sure this guy is the manager of the tech dept. He said they'll definitely...

If you search for mini split remotes on amazon or eBay you'll find lots of similarities. I've heard Midea was one of the main OEMs...

If you buy different brands like I did, so many similarities. Even remotes are the same. My Pioneer wi fi adapter will somehow confuse...

I've heard Midea makes all of these units and just different brand names.

I'm not sure exactly what you've just written, but if I did understand it, I could probably get this 300 ac installed.

Polaris is a multi-port connector. Popular for making feeder taps if not doing hot work. Insulation piercing connectors are used for hot...

If I can install it high up enough, it will protect the inverter and the load panel. That's what I'm looking to do. I don't think I'd be...

An SPD installed before the 200A breaker (e.g. on another breaker using those busbars), after the 200A breaker, or at your inverter...

I called midnight solar. They're undergoing maintenance, so emails only right now.

That's one example of what those bus bars are for, a shop. I don't believe that installing a breaker there will protect my load panel...

The breaker slots are between the grid and that 200 amp breaker. I think the 30 amp breaker would need to install after the 200 amp...

So, a question, why not use the breaker slots available instead of Polaris connectors? Wish my meter's panel had those extra breaker...

I would put a 30a breaker in for it. You'll be glad that you did, when it's time to replace it.
