I have a small orchard with a 15 HP 3-phase well pump here in California. Power goes pole to meter to service panel, to pump. PG&E tells me it's 4-wire, 3-phase, 240v. I have no yet verified that with my tester.
I’m going to install a small solar system relatively quickly to get grandfathered into NEM 2.0, before new systems lose their ability to earn back anywhere near their cost. Then later on deal with adding capacity.
Anyway, what are my options for 3-phase? I own and am familiar with a standard 240v residential system, but 3-phase is new to me.
My options as I see it are panels with Solar Edge optimizers going to a Solar Edge 3-phase inverter. Or, since it's 240v do I even need to deal with a 3-phase inverter?
Or another brand without the whole optimizer scheme.
What are your thoughts?
Thank you
