  • Post in thread: Bypass Wiring - double as AC disconnect by paralleling Sol-Ark Load output

    Thanks, looked at some other threads about accidental back feed letting the smoke out of inverters. I don't want to risk it and will switch to the sol ark recommended transfer switch configuration
  • Post in thread: Help with string layout

    I wanted to, but the inverter has a max 500V input but with low temp correction the panel VOC is over 50V. Rated VOC is 48.8 and low temp correction factor is 1.14 resulting in a 55.6 VOC
  • Post in thread: Bypass Wiring - double as AC disconnect by paralleling Sol-Ark Load output

    Hi, My utility requires a visible open AC disconnect to separate the inverter from the utility. I also want a bypass switch to bypass Solar and use grid only as an option. Sol-Arks wiring schematic in the manual shows the inverter output as being switched through the transfer switch. This would...

    The disconnect needs to be 200A due to the 200A feedthrough on the sol ark. The transfer switch meets the disconnect requirements since it is visible open in the off position. I was thinking about this a little more, and in the event the transfer switch is switched off the sol-ark would go into...
  • Post in thread: Help with string layout

    Getting ready to install my solar carport panels and second guessing my string layout. I originally planned it to try to start near the disconnect but not sure if that is the best option. I designed for 2 parallel strings of 7 panels and 1 string of 6 (2 runs going to inverter). Any...
  • Post in thread: First PV system sanity check - 7.9kw carport

    Hi, I’ve been working on a grid-tie system using the great resources on this board, and I just received plan approval and now I’m second guessing myself. This is a pergola/carport mounted system, 7.9kW DC with (20) Hyundai 395W bifacial panels using a sol-ark 15k inverter for whole-home feed...
