    Sol-Ark 12K with small generator

    I still cant get my small generator to work. Do I have to wait till the voltage drops below 2 volts below float before it will connect?

    Enphase AC to hybrid system

    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...

    Enphase AC to hybrid system

    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.

    Enphase AC to hybrid system

    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...

    Enphase AC to hybrid system

    This is a pdf of my setting in grid codes. I made some changes that I will try tomorrow.

    Enphase AC to hybrid system

    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...

    Enphase AC to hybrid system

    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...

    Enphase AC to hybrid system

    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.

    Enphase AC to hybrid system

    So could there be a resistance problem? Could my resistance be to high? Can I measure that somehow?

    Enphase AC to hybrid system

    The Enphase do frequency shifting, the problem is the Schneider shifts to much and shuts them down, instead of putting the power into my batteries.

    Enphase AC to hybrid system

    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...
