Question on the ct clamp/s, Here in arizona, we have 200 amp service- pretty standard, the the power wire for line 1 and line 2 , 220v -240v is probably 0 awg or 2 awg.. are you fitting your ct clamps around similar wire size??? if so do they fit around the wire?, or do you need to open the...

Hi , Which brand Gtil are you using, and are you happy with them, and for how long have they been working for? thx

Question On this: If I added more solar panles, Lets say I doubled it or added to more panels.. The inverter is rated at 3kw.. charge controller is 40 amps, It was sold as a 60 amp (Mis Labled-Not happy about that) I know i will not get out any more power out of the inverter,, but will it add...

Thank you so much, This was driving me crazy to figure out why the deficit... (YOU ROCK MCGIVOR) SO MUCH APPRECIATE THE GREAT FEED BACK.. should I run the 4 panels to cover the 900 estimated load watts, and get a small mppt charge controller and add the other 4 panels to it to offset my draw...

So in essence... A rated 3kw inverter will not really be able to supply 3 kw free and clear by solar power / by adding solar panels or extra panels to be greater, and or equal the load.. ? in this equation,, after 950 watts, it will draw from the battery to be able to put out up to 3kw, but no...

Thank you.. This is quite interesting.. You may be dead on!.. I have another unit with 48 volts 5kw system with 4500 watt of pv, but the highest i can produce is 2.8 kw no matter what.. Must be limited by the charge controller amps. (48 volts x 60 amps =2,880 watts- Consistent with the 24 volt...

Hi, Ok, Here is my set up... I have 2 panels in series- x 2 then i combined them in parallel. When testing voltage on that string with my multi meter, the reading is 75 volts for the 4 total panels (Series / parallel) .. Total output voltage on that string is 75 volts and suspect of 24...

not the plus version... If I place a draw from the inverter and pull 1.25 kw, or even 2.9 kw , the pv produced will not travel over 950 watts... It doesn't show that I am producing power at that step, but the charge light blinks.. but the inverter is now pulling 20-30 amps from the battery..

Hi, I just updated the post with the info,, I hope that helps Battery voltage during charging is 26.8 volts

updated the post, thank you for asking.

Hi Forum::: A forum member posted this, which sparked me to think of a few factors... Based on this comment: - In general I get at most about 1400 watts out of the panels at peak (they are not an ideal facing but it's the best I can do on my property). MY QUESTION: I have a powmr brand...

Hi Bud, thank you for the reply.. I fully understand that wiring in series the amps will stay the same... But my main questions were: if I placed each string into the eco-worthy style combiner box, etc, will the combiner box apply the power in parallel?? Hence making the voltage 136 v...

Hi Group, (New to solar) New project at hand here. Playing with a small system and seeing if I don't light up a fire or - Simply just make a smart simple installation.. My goal. Off grid inverter to run a few mini splits in hot Phoenix Arizona Purchased rec 310w 72 cell 48v panels - I'll...
