Hi DIYrich - looking for some advice as I am back on the island and just received the EG4 18KPV today. I tested the two sets of strings that come out of the wall; one set connected to the Ginslong tested at 394Volts DC and the other set of strings connected the the EA Sun tested at 64Volts DC. I also noticed on the Ginslong that it is "generating" 2200 Watts on the SUNNIEST / HOTTEST day.
My plan was when it is dark tonight to install the attached breaker 20A; cut the lines for the 394 Volts and insert into breaker then hook up the PV lines to the Eg4 18KPV; it says the right side is positive of the breaker and the left side is negative; saw this in the cut sheet.
As far as the 64 volt set of string positive and negative; I wasn't going to use this at all? Why do you think the big difference.
Also I was testing the AMPS from the EA Sun from the PV hook up and it gave a spark and reset the inverter nothing else happened I was using the attached setting on the Mulitmeter. I don't want to mess with the Multimeter at amps.
For the voltage testing I used the Fluke T5-600; which was rather easy set to AC/DC.
Can I cut these lines during the day for the PV or should I wait for complete darkness to plug into the NEW breaker that I sent a picture of.
The setting I used at the mulitmeter is attached to; it also took the tip off the red probe. Maybe I used the wrong setting to test the amps?
My electrician is coming tomorrow to clean up this mess and do the grid work;
