I do have a shunt and I discharged the batteries to check and they started to charge then they quit, only got up to 5 amps. My battery bank is a used nissan leaf and it is about 40k of usable power. I have the same grid profile CA Rule 21, but mine ends in (1.2.8). My current soft ware is...
My AC is 3000 watts. I have tried some more experimenting today and got very little solar, before I started my panels were putting about 140 watts and I turned on 32 of them, no ac and my loads were still around 1500 watts and I only had about half of the panels working.
The Schneider goes...
When I use this I am off grid, I manually shut down the grid and turn on the XW, the XW does everything that you listed that your sunny island. I have to much solar to run through the inverter it is rated for 6000 watts and my solar puts out 12000 to 13000 watts in full sun. So I use it off...
This system is for off grid power, I have only used it once since I installed. Most of the time my loads are small, my average usage is about 2000 watts. I have my panels in strings of 16 and can either have them on or off, I have 4 strings, the most each string puts out is 3000 watts and...
I just purchased a XWPro and it is doing the same thing that you talked about. Shutting down my iq7 and won't charge my batteries. Did you find a solution?
I turned on soc in the charge section, and I was able to charge at 5 amps. Still low for 32 Iq7 and 4000 watts of power, when my loads were only 500 watts. Since I have switched to the CA profile the inverters seem more responsive, now I need to figure out why the XW keeps shifting the...
I setup the CA grid code and didn't have any better luck. It started to charge and run my loads and then the XW went to 62 hertz and shut down all of the IQ7. I was about a half volt below my charging set point. I turned off the power to the panels to try and reset them and it did nothing...
I did try it twice that day where I was off grid. After it not working I went back on grid and charged it. Both times small loads 600watts.
I have a Enphase combiner box with 4 - 20 amp strings of 16. That goes into another combiner box for my barn, solar and house. It then back feeds the...
AC1 is my incoming power AC2 is my generator and AC loads is connected to my sub panel in my barn which is fed by a sub panel on the outside of my barn which combines the solar sub panel from enphase and my power coming from my house.
I was told that the battery settings don't apply when running off grid ac coupled, so what settings could be causing the frequency to shift. I saw it shifting from 60.1 to 60.9hz. Using the CA grid profile and enabling state of charge in charge settings it went up to 5 amps. Because it kept...
So I ran a test today and it work for awhile, I was trying to adjust my setting in the grid codes of the XW. It still was limiting the number of inverters that were working but it was allowing the ones that were working to come up to full power.
As the voltage started to clime it started to...
I can try that and see, wouldn't be to hard but the spec sheet for the inverter states that the DC voltage range is from 40 – 64 V (48 V nominal).
I think why they recomend that voltage is if I drop one group the max charge voltage would be 48.6 to 49 volts.
I can try this, will have to wait till I have a morning to try this. I can say that I have did this when my power was out for 4 days, what I was getting is the same. Enphase will power my loads but always draws a little out of the battery. But when the Enphase power starts to exceed the load...
I don't like using to much of my solar up, since I need to get extra credits for the fall. So I usually test in the after noon when I am done working and have little power coming in. I did test it yesterday late afternoon and was able to get most of my panels to work, but due to the sun...
Sub panel on the out side of my barn. That panel feeds my barn and my house. The wire size in that panel is 2 gauge feeding the Enpahse panel and the Barns panel. I have 4/0 feeding the house.
