Hey Folks.. Been reading forums and websites and watching a pile of Youtube videos for the last week or so.. Long term I am looking at installing a 18kW Net Metering system to zero out my bill. I am getting some quotes on this, but if I can work through the redtape I may well do the install myself. I am kind of waiting to see if the Canadian 0% financing offer comes in.
In the mean time I am building some batteries and looking a building a small system (upwards of 2kW to start) to learn with...
I have been looking at the 1kW and 2kW Grid Tied Inverters from aliexpress/ebay/amazon (Grid Tied - Split Phase). One of the issues is the lack of information on the CT Clamps, modifying them to split phase and working correctly with split phase and high inductive loads. I have posted a couple questions in other threads but anyone have any feedback on this? I see some people say put them in series, others in parallel, others add a resistor or pot. I would love to hear from soneone who has them running and what their experience is with them
Further anyone have suggestions on other Grid Tied Inverters with limiter CT Clamp Limiter Function. Preferable out of the box split phase? I see some expensive options like the Sol-Ark which looks amazing but out of my reach for simple tinkering.
Thanks in advance!
