Mnspd-600 600V Surge ProtectorWhat model number are those surge protectors?
I don't think so.I’m not familiar with what’s possible on CCA wrt controlling the TIGOs. Is there an off chance they can be configured to behave as pass through only?
So from the inverter? Any setting I should check?That noise is a square wave at around 1 kHz. Could be MPPT overcurrent protection (desaturation). May be internal fault.
Any settings in the inverter I should look into?I have Tigos on my ground mount and have never heard them make a noise with a Sol ark 15k. I would suspect your noise is interference coming up the line from the inverter. Likely the 20kHz switching frequency of the inverter.
Attached is panel label.BTW you should be able to download a spectrum analyzer app for your phone to see how much energy is in which frequencies of that sound.
What are the panel specs?
All PV combined(I don't think it's time yet to dig into settings, don't have complete picture yet of how this is configured).
The graph you shared from the Growatt, is that all PV combined or just this string?
Those are within spec for one MPPT even if the TIGO decided to boost current by 33% for unknown reasons.Attached is panel label.
Yes. Every panel has a TIGO.Those are within spec for one MPPT even if the TIGO decided to boost current by 33% for unknown reasons.
Are there TIGOs on the other two strings?
That would scare me enough to shut it down emidiatly.No editing. It is just like it sounds. The sound is from the solar panels.
No errors in the inverter. If there was a ground or ARC fault then it would point to a loose connection. Polarity wiring issues also would throw an error.That would scare me enough to shut it down emidiatly.
I would check all connections for a good connection, And correct polarity wiring.
If nothing abnormal is found. Then start isolating different parts to find the source of the problem.
Could be the SPD's, optimizers, or even a shorted panel.
Originally I thought with just the Emporia graph, that looks broken, but surely the sound can't be that bad.That would scare me enough to shut it down emidiatly.

OK, so I think what this says is, your inverter works fine with TIGOs. So the problem is specific to the components in this string or this MPPT on the inverter.Yes. Every panel has a TIGO.
Right but that sound IMO is bad enough to be like the "smell test" situation for bad food. If the food label says it's not expired yet, but your nose wretches as soon as you open the package, will you eat it?No errors in the inverter.

The sound appears near the panels and in the DC disconnect box. What could this mean?Right but that sound IMO is bad enough to be like the "smell test" situation for bad food. If the food label says it's not expired yet, but your nose wretches as soon as you open the package, will you eat it?
