@Zwy I have bought a 6 gauge grounding wire, grounding rod + clamp and lay-in lugs to connect to my solar panels. So the question i have now is where do i put my grounding rod? Close to the solar panels or close to the house? My solar panels are about 30-40 meters away from the house. I think...

Oke thanks! Cool video! ;-) I will start grounding all my components. Hope that the current issue that i have will also be resolved then. I will update you when i am finished. Thanks for all your help (y)

Hi Zwy, Ah oke clear! Thanks! :)

@Zwy I mentioned to @Quattrohead that i saw a video of Will Prowse saying he doesn't use a ground rod. I don't completely understand all he says but i am curious what your thought are on it. It's a 5 min video. I absolutely will follow your advice on grounding but i am just curious about...

Hi Zwy, Awesome thanks! So then i just have one more question.. :) My grid main panel of my house must have a grounding rod near my house. Could i connect it to that same grounding rod? I got the feeling no but just want to confirm. And if no then i have to place a separate grounding rod for...

I don't know that either how it is connected internally. So you are saying that having some current on the PV input is normal? Or do you also think that there might be something wrong internally? Thanks!

:rolleyes: lol! Like i mentioned i am still in the set up and learning phase and wouldn't actually use the whole set up unless i am sure i got everything right. I am also pretty sure that i saw a video by Will Prowse explaining why he didn't use a ground rod on his system. But yeah it seems...

Hi Zwy, Thanks for taking the time for helping me out. Appreciate it. I know all the discussion around this inverter and kind a wished i choose different ones. But i already had them and don't have the budget now to just replace them with new ones ;-) Also one of the reasons why i don't...

Hi Zwy Yes this is off-grid only. No AC input. No connection to my house/grid main panel. The inverters are the US version from signature solar. So no ground/neutral bonding. The transformer is the Solaredge mid-point transformer to get the 120volt/neutral. There is no grounding electrode...

Hi Zwy, Thanks for your message. I am still a beginner so this was new to me. Thanks for pointing it out. I quickly created a wiring diagram and attached it. Grounding is still a bit unclear to me. And opinions differ i noticed. My setup is the same as a lot of other people with the same...

Last year i ordered 2 Growatt 5kW Stackable Off-Grid Inverters | SPF 5000 ES-US plus two EG4-LifePower4 Lithium Batteries | 48V 100AH from Signature Solar. I contacted them but still no answer so thought you guys might have an answer. I just finished setting everything up. And everything is...

Thank you all for your replies! So i also got confirmation from the company i bought it from and the said that if the inverters are in parallel then connecting to one inverter is enough. :)

Hi schmism, everyhting is purchased already ;-) Setting it al up as we speak.

I have attached a pdf with specs. I have the 450.

Hi Ampster, i have 10kw of batteries. ;-)
