  • Post in thread: How many solar panels for 6000xp

    It's overkill but in the future I plan to add more batteries and also wanted redundancy if an inverter fails I can switch everything over to running off one until the second is replaced. Once I have more batteries I will move over my bigger loads like my washer/dryer and maybe even someday AC...
  • Post in thread: Should I install a transfer switch

    If I bumped this to two strings of 8 panels would that be more acceptable? Keep in mind this is a new build so I have no idea what my usage is going to be since I'll have all new electronics/appliances. I would be at two strings of 296VDC and 3200W each.
