Only if the hotty is included, might need mouth to mouth

I guess its good thing I have back up power

Well crap, I thought that was how it works but I trusted the homedepot guy, thank you

I have decided to go with feeding a 50 amp double poll breaker and avoiding the lugs all together, I'm not a fan of the cheap push button breakers in the growatt , i really appreciate your help and very detailed explanations

The response I got from seplos when I asked for the cell manufacturer was that they produce the cells and I was send a data sheet with cell info and all it has is their name on it

I will test it another day, also I was curious if I have everything connected correctly so I used my travel trailer EMS to test it and I get no errors, it shows proper grounding etc, I disconnected my earth ground to see if it changed anything and I got no warnings, I'm guessing the NG bond is...

Growatt already hadls a 40 amp breaker built in but I see some videos feeding a double poll and other feeding the lugs, I guess feeding a breaker is just extra safety measure

That's what I tried to say, I was originally having 2.3 amps on my ground when i was using AC in to charge my batteries and he said it's because the cords, when I did the bond from neutral to neutral the 2.3 amps went away

That's what I was thinking but wanted it confirmed, thank you

Most likely they are to small, another ember said something about not running two hots in parallel but I was confused, I guess it comes down to either buying 4 wire SO cord or 3 wire SO cord

Okay, my issue is with the split panel and having two multiwire branch circuits to work with, two growatts would be nice since I would get two phase but I'm back into the parallel issue, the mpp would be nice but again I have the multiwire branch circuits, the 5000 is an option like you said but...

Sounds good

I was thinking 100 amp per inverter 3000÷48×1.25=78.125 but round up to 100 amp fuse, I would rather run two separate fuses/breakers just so I have redundancy and of one inverter has a problem I van just move breakers around to the leg that is still good, I searched gopower and they say I need a...

Sounds good, I will add some 4 awg positives and see how it goes, can't believe I spent hours calculating how to make all of the cables the same length

My plan is hooking to the house but I might need to use cords until I get the transfer switch done, just want to get things running and update as I go.

I am required to follow all 2017 NEC regulations so guess I have some figuring to do

So two growatt 3000TL it is, now to call an electrician to see if he wants to help, thank you for all of your help

Those are eve cells, according to seplos they manufacture the cells they use so im not sure if theirs are UL or not, the website has a lot of information but not the details I need, guess I will need to wait for two weeks while they are celebrating Chinese new year

Very strange

I have read through the spec sheet that signature solar has posted under this breaker and I don't see anything that says DC, lots of info I don't understand so I guess it could be listed somewhere. https://signaturesolar.com/nadar-dc-circuit-breaker-48v-125-amp/

I thought about that but waaay out of my price range plus everything else would still need UL listed (panels, wire, combiner box, inverter etc etc Etc, im kinda stuck with the 6548 because of price, im just not sure how it would all work with my transfer switch

I always over size my wire just for any future upgrades but the breaker thing is what confuses me

No inspections being done, doing everything as a temporary install, when I talked to the local inspections office I was told that of its temporary they don't have any need to do an inspection, similar to having a transfer switch, as long as the switch is inspected they can't control what is...

Okay, I will wire it in, I really appreciate all of your help, your good at getting confused people straightened out, thought I knew basic electrical but then I started into DC stuff and it's a nutty world

That makes sense, an electrician should be able to do that for fairly cheap, no need to use my transfer switch, wanted to use it since I already owned it but if I can use a cord then even better, would just need to do all of this in my basement which would be about a 8 foot run

Oh, I would have guessed that the main breaker would need to be larger then any breaker down stream but then I guess that wouldn't necessarily make sense since a 100 amp service has more then 100 amps worth or breakers pulling from it
