Install and Operation of the SUNGOLD 10KW 48V SPLIT PHASE SOLAR INVERTER

@Wessss77 Mine is single too. I bought one parallel to start another project but hasnt arrived yet. I have the manual if you want to look at the configuration options.

By the way, I think the SPH10K48SP by Sungold, the SPI-10K-U by many others and the ASF48100U200 by SRNE are all the same.
Yes, manufactured by SNRE and rebranded by Sungold and perhaps others...
 
Are you guys all running a single inverter or paralleling 2? I think @Enzo.R is ... When first turning the system on, do you go grid, batteries, inverter breaker, start switch and do the first unit and then setting 31 to PAL and then bring the second inverter online?View attachment 224605
I have 2 ASPs hanging on the wall, I need to stop making excuses and get them running...
My interpretation of the manual will be doing what you are suggesting. Leave inverter 2 off and parallel cables disconnected, program inverter 1 for parallel, shut it off and parallel program inverter 2, shut it off and connect parallel cables, then turn both on. I'll verify voltages, phases and frequency of each independently before turning them on in parallel.

I like your combiner box placement.

Ok... I'll be the guinea pig... I'll let y'all know how it goes...I have all the wiring right... And it looks like you only need to change 31 to PAL. Gonna shoot an email off to SGP in a minute... Right now it's 103 outside and my garage is burning up so I'll stay on the grid for another few hours.

Exciting!

Don't forget to set 68 to 180°

You people are killing my poor checking account...

First the tp6048 needed a friend and the were on backorder so I figured what the heck lets run what others are doing since I have no patience so I ordered the latest of sungolds srne clone. Should be here friday so I ordered more batteries and a ton of cables and stuff since it pulls more power.

Seeing all of the paralleling fun is causing the wallet to twitch again.

The first one isn't even here yet and I'm twitching to order two more to have 3 of them to handle everything at once.....
 
All is running with no issues...

Settings only need to be made on one inverter and are replicated immediately to the others.
Remember to exit settings to effect the changes.
For SA reporting I had to change from voltronic, mppt to SRNE.
You can leave the parallel communication cables connected when setting PAL.
Set battery type to USER if doing so. Default is AGM.

Just noticed SA only sees the one inverter... With the SP6548s both inverters showed up on one USB cable

Good news!

Thank you for following up.

Congratulations, I believe you're the first member to be running these in parallel.

Do you have a 2nd USB cable you can connect?
I ordered two just in case.

Thanks I don't have one but will pick one up tomorrow and will try the second usb3 on the SA to see if it shows up... If not then I'll try a USB hub.

Ok... Yes two printer cables both on the usb3 ports on the SA my batteries go in on the usb3 port and now I see everything...I just noticed I have something wrong in my config cause I'm not getting any real charging... Solar is only handling the load...I checked seeing 37 but mine doesn't allow me to set it above 52.4... hmmmm

Nice! Not sure what you mean about not charging. What percentage are your batteries at etc.?
 
Ah, you just mean your load is exceeding your solar so not charging... makes sense... I was thinking there was a problem of some kind...

There is a problem... The batteries didn't charge all day...I woke up and they were at 88%... And never charged... They continued to support the load and supplement the PV... They should do a full charge and then float all day.

If you're not using communications check out these settings they are for my ASF but charging voltages / settings will still apply.

Okay, but according to that image you posted the load is drawing more current than the PV is supplying so it's not going to charge the batteries with that situation.

...ah but I guess maybe the PV 'should' be supplying more and charging the batteries....

Are you running with Communication or User Mode?

If user see @42OhmsPA link above....

It was still setting 37... That setting is limited to the current float voltage in setting in 11 I guess... Before I couldn't set it above 52.8 then it went back to 44... This time I could increase it to 53.6... Still can't get 54. Now it's working like I wanted

Thanks for the settings we were really close on most of them....I let the BMS handle charging parameters and on the 6548s there was voltage sag that would throw you too the grid and then bounce right back to battery 30 seconds later... When using the User mode it's all based on voltage. I want to use SA to handle switching appropriately.1000008792.jpg
