    OK - understand, and again thanks for the help. Delta Pro 30 amp --> NEMA TT-30R (needs male plug) --> Square D 100 amp load center (one 20 amp to garage, one 10 amp spare in house) --> run to garage (I ordered the right cable) --> Square D 30 amp load center (one 10 amp plus one 10 amp) -->...

    Have a look at this - you can pre-order for August. I just saw that Ecoflow came out with this simple plug&play solution. I love the concept and think they are way ahead of the competition on where the market goes. BTW, I am not afiliated with any company. Just a beginner myself and I have made...

    Thank you very much for your thoughtful and extensive explanation. I will make sure I get the right wire. I am glad you picked up on this. Back to the breaker. Would you not recommend a breaker before leaving the house for the run to the garage? I understand the delta pro has its own breaker...

    Well, I don't want to connect circuits to the main panel. As far as I am concerned everything downstream from the Delta Pro is its own circuit just like a long extension cord.

  • Post in thread: Just got the Delta Pro - House/Garage sub grid questions

    All, I just received my Ecoflow Delta Pro - free ship and tax for $3289 after coupon and current reduced price. Fantastic! Now it starts. My main goal is to have 3 Fridge and Freezer connected to a permanent power backup. Potentially expand later to other circuits. I have drawn my plan up in...

    Hello, I have a Ecoflow Delta Pro in the house and want to connect a freezer in the garage. The garage is about 50 ft disconnected from the house and I just ran a conduit with a 10/3 Romex in there with the intend to connect to the 30 amp outlet from the Delta Pro. The cable is rated for the 30...

    I absolutely agree with the cost but I am intrigued by the simplicity of this. If you look at all the beautiful pictures of the self builds you still see cabling and shunts exposed. I am camping for years and every nook and cranny eventually fills up. I am just not too happy about exposed...
  • Post in thread: Currently 10 cents/kWh but what is to come...?

    Hello All! I have been following Will for some time but never felt that I have a real need for battery backup. Until last year my electricity was 8.5 cent/kWh while I was locked in a very long contract. When I renewed with another company it went up to 10 cents but looking at the current renewal...

    Yes, I am in the US. Thanks for the info/warning on the conduit, I think its not Romex. I just checked Cable and it says: "United Copper Industries (UL) 10/3 NM-B 600V E194030" Would this work?
