went for the fastest relay i could find but i have just bought on advice from will prouse a ATS

can somebody else try it first and let me know how you get on

i have just had delivered a moes ats and first job, get its jacket off and have a look inside well two relays and a board now if this thing can do what it says it can do then bloody marvellous but the cable is a bit thin so 11kw at 240 volts. my inverter is only 8kw so all i have got to do is...

When I built my solar system, night time E7 was a good idea about 40% of daytime rate, so using a time clock and a 48v forklift battery charger. On bad days of no sun I could switch it on and the time clock would do the rest and we would start the day with a not quite fully charged battery...

and I am a solar engineer and in the past I have been using two separate contactors to switch from mains to inverter power and it switches fine, but there is a time delay between one and the other and things like TV, computers, and other appliances see the delay and switch off, it is only for a...

OK i have changed the rotary switch for a fast relay and that has improved things a lot and the wife is still with me so i shall leave it at that now i just need the low dc auxiliary switch on the inverter to operate the relay and that will automate the system woopee s----

my bms has a dongal with 4 wires that could be extended, but the victron smart shunt is inside

ok i will go and think about synchronous condensers

then why suggest it, you sound like you could have an idea on how to fix this come on lets hear it, there must be more than me with this problem i have made a few suggestions and been told no way would they work, but nobody has got an idea of there own

no it is not easy to get 2 sources joined my inverter is on all the time ready to be used the mains is on all the time each with its own contactor that is switched in and out by a two way switch now what is the fastest switch and what are the fastest contacters? is there something special out there

out of phase AC on both sides of a triac bad things can happen.ok so solidstate relay is not a good idea but you keep telling me this is a bad idea and that wont work i have got this system working 99% and i can see there is a lot of talent out there but no body is saying sounds like i know but...

if you don't tell us how this can help then probably eating a jam doughnut could help

Freewheel a 1800 rpm 5 hp motor. That will fix it. what is this all about please explain

smokin can you explain Freewheel a 1800 rpm 5 hp motor. That will fix it how?

do solid state relays operate faster than contactors you stated that 3/5 ms is fast enough to work most things in the house i would settle for that but how do i do it

do solid state relays operate faster than contactors brewmatic has stated that 3/5 ms is fast enough to work most things in the house i would settle for that

is it the transfer switch or the contactors i suspect both

its the whole house we are talking about tv, radio, time clocks, computer, all drop out because of a split second in switch over

what about using a pair of contactors with DC coils and putting small capacitors on them to create a slight delay in de-energizeing the contactors, the capacitors could be very small and adjust them untill there is just enough delay

ok i am interested in the idea of a faster transfer switch any suggestions, i am useing a rotary switch and i try and switch it over as fast as possible to reduce the change over time but what else is available.

my system is off grid when the battery bank gets low i manually switch to mains so inverter power and grid are not connected the system is near 20 years old so nothing is hybrid and nothing syncronizes the inverter stays on standby untill the battery bank is charged then i switch to inverter...

the power supply is not lost it is just coming from a different direction and they must not meet because you could be putting power into the mains and that is bad i just need it to happen faster so appliances dont see the change over and i see it has to happen on the load side

don't just say YOU SERIOUS, if you have got something to say that can help lets hear it

when i switch from solar to grid and from grid to solar there is a delay for a split second and it is enough to switch off a TV or a computer and time clocks go off and it annoys the hell out of my Wife and i have got to do something, or get a lawyer. now my idea is to put a bank of capacitors...

hi i bought a dali smart bms nice looking kit, BUT it was reluctant to connect to my iphone, and when it did would drop out, it was a problem i got over by replacing it with JBD i like the software, you can set everything, and if you want to fit a seperate balancer you can switch the balance...

when you are building a lifepo4 battery 16s 18p with 288 x 26650 cells it comes to top balancing I do it in the building process. I see it in two ways when you get to near full charge, drop your charge rate to half an amp the smart BMS is showing you on your phone APP the leaders and it gives...

in the past using reclaimed 18650's i have allways fused each cell but now using new 26650 i can't get fused 2p nickel strip so i am thinking of not individually fusing each cell but making up 3 packs with a 3s 100amp BMS to make up 1 90amph battery what do you think

17 years ago i built a off grid solar system for my bungalow and the rolls batteries are begining to give problems so i am building a new one, battery bank just bought 1200 26650 from battery hookup in america with the idea of intergrating lithium with lead acid any comments Terry

lead acid you only get about 300amph you cant go below 50%, but with lithium you can use 90% so you do have more to use

studer 7k inverter is giving 80 volt between neg and earth is this safe, the system is 12 years old not notised before
