    Eg4 parallel communications cable

    I will be mounting the 4th inverter where rhe empty space is at on the wall towards the right and this is why one of the. cables is going to be about 1 foot too short...

    Eg4 parallel communications cable

    I am connecting (4) EG4 6500EX inverters in splutter phase, and I need one of the parallel communications cables to be a couple feet longer. they appear to be 15 pin vga cables with female and male ends and about 5 feet long. Would this be the correct cable to get in slightly longer form? Thanks

    so it is best to have all 4 inverters connected to the 6 batteries in parallel then? is there any advantage to having 3 batteries connect to 2 inveterate for line 1 and the other 3 batteries connected to the other 2 inverters for line 2 since it. will be a split phase system?

    so are you saying I must connect one EG-4 battery to one one EG-4 Inverter in order to have everything else connected the way I have described?

    ok good this is the kind of confirmation I have been looking for, if I only had 2 inverters I would have 2 strings on each inveter and when it is talked about stacking or paralleling a couple inverters, you can parallel the charging of the battery bank connections and of the ac output...

    Ok thanks so basically i can connect them like shown in this drawing, either configuration is fine, the one on the bottom with a separate string to each would possibly have an advantage as far as them all running a little cooler is what you are saying?

    im good with respect to amount of panels on a string. the panels are 33.5V and just under 11Amps, so the 11 panels are 369V totaling just over 4000W. if i paralleled strings i would be at about 22A and with the inverter clipping at 18A i would be wasting 4 Amps so i know not to be paralleling...

    Ok, that makes sense, so then would it be best to run (2) strings to one inverter on line 1 side and other 2 strings to one inverter on line 2 side, or should one string go to each of the 4 inverters?

    Hello all, I am new to setting up a complete off grid system, however i have been an electrician all of my adult life and have a good basic understanding of how solar power works and the basics of inverters, battery racks, series and parallel and such. i am trying to put together a 16KW PV using...
