making mistakes so you don't have to...
Explain it to like I'm a 6 year old.
I have several hybrid inverter who work in parallel and all is great, off grid.
My friend bought the same type, he has (3 phase) 230v grid
(No American setups)
Basic wirering goes OK,
Each phase into the inverter , the inverter has solar and battery and spits out its rated max 5500 watt to the house.
There a part is used as real 3 phase, and some parts as one phase 230v.
So far so good.
His total power usage is never above 13kw.
Here is the catch..
It's not divided equally.
Sometimes one inverter needs to provide more then 5500 watt, and the resettable fuse stops all power
Strange thing, a friend of him, has a growatt, single phase, that can use the grid if they use more then the rated capacity.
Installation by a company, and I don't know nothing about how they did it.
I know they probably aren't feeding the grid (not profitable in Thailand)
That's all.
Our inverter the grid in goes via the mainboard, and understandable can't cope with 8kw, when build for 5.5kw.
Energy still needs to pass via the mainboard, it's just too much.
I don't blame the inverter for limit the maximum capacity to 5.500, via grid or self made from solar or battery.
How does the Growatt do this?
Bypass it's own limitation?
Is that grid-tight?
And no brown/black out function?
I don't know!
Main reason for the inverters, are the frequent brown/black outs.
And large fluctuations in the grid voltages.
Is it possible to wire In a way that the grid will help when the inverter isn't powerful enough to deliver the energy??
And if it is, scematics please!!!
I'm not a total noob, throwing in professional terms that I need to translate to try to understand what the heck you are talking about...
Doesn't work.
Better explain what the term is
Thank you all!!
He doesn't want to feed the grid, just be able to use as he is used to do with the grid, except limited due the power problems from that same grid.
If you understand what I try to say ?
