Thanks @sunshine_eggo I will try that. @Doug864 - I require 4 fuses at the base of my inverter to work, so I can't just plug one in and see if it works. These are good responses though! Thank you!

My house generally gets struck by lightning and I end up having to replace the fuses. There are 4 fuses (BUSSMANN Fuse: 15 A Amps, 600V AC, 100kA at 600V AC, 1-1/2 in L x 13/32 in dia Fuse Size, KTK) that I end up replacing, I 'feel' might not all be burned up. Is there a way to test the fuses...

Ya, I realize that this isn't the right forum, but I want to chat with some people who really know what they are talking about! Thanks for your input none-the-less.

I own a Fiat 500e, and cannot find any great definition of a cycle. (Well, I really haven't looked.) If I drive my car and the battery drops to 75%, I plug it in, it charges back to 100%, is that considered a cycle?

120% means, when they evaluated my system, they (the PV installers) recommended getting an 80% system. I told them 'no, I want to buy a system that will power 120% of what I currently use.'

The number of panels are different, which is why I have a bigger inverter for the east facing (right side of the pic) versus the west.

For the West side I have the SB 5000US, for the East side I have the SB 7000US and I stand corrected, it was installed in 2010.

There are two Sunny Boy converters made by SMA. It was installed in 2008 and I 'think' it only works while the grid is up. If more detail is necessary: please ask. I would like to power things like my freezer, refrigerator, and lastly charging the car if the grid goes down. Is there a way in...

I am not interested in V2H - geez, I produce more electricity from my solar system than I can use anyway.

It is a 2016 so it is a 24kwh battery. (ya, I know the 2020 model is a 42 kwh - which I am jealous) I already have a 24v wall charger Juicebox 40 amp charger mounted in the garage.

I have a 120% system, a 14kw solar grid tied system. So I NEVER have an electric bill (well, okay $11.50/mo for the service fees). But I am producing TONS of extra power from my system. I bought a Fiat500e and power it DAILY. (24kwh battery) I live in Phoenix AZ with APS power. Grandfathered...
