Hi Guys,
I have received all of the stuff I ordered including the 48v PIP-3048LV-MK MPP Solar 3000watt Inverter All-In-One system. I purchased these Trina 400watt panels which output like 41~v and intended to hook 6 of them up in parallel. I've built the battery bank with BLS LifePo4 Cells configured in 48v no problem.
The MPP Solar Unit wouldn't detect PV input so I contacted support and they pointed out that these units require 60-115v~ MPPT Range.
So, I am thinking that from the videos I heard will say we need to build in 400,800,1200,1600 watt systems connected in parallel. My interpreation from the MPP Solar response is to connect these in series bringing it up to 80v, but that's not what I've read anywhere so I'm not going to do something like that until I feel confident that is the right thing to do, as its SCARY! I am a complete newbie to this. But I'm a overall tech savy, and a software dev by trade so.... I think I got everything right from the videos.
Can anyone shed some light on what I should do? This is being mounted in a 29' Class A RV and I'm test setting it up on my lawn ATM.
