    Storage

    Tesla's 10kWh Powerwall was only ever intended to be a "backup" system, in case of mains loss, not a "storage" solution.....just not viable, especially here in the UK

    Help! Solar Pv System Question

    Back from a hiatus of this forum due to it not working with Tapatalk any more..... Interesting thread, tend to agree with Gavin and Bruce tbh, the performance doesn't seem to be too bad and there are many reasons for why you are under the initial projections provided by your installer. Does...

    PV monitoring Options.

    One missing off that list - SolarLog. Even though the range is geared towards commercial applications, the smaller SL300Meter variant has a built in kWh meter and multiple configurable CT inputs (supply and load) so, along with direct RS485 comms with over 100 brands of inverters, this means...

    PV monitoring Options.

    The best? SolarLog - https://www.greentechmedia.com/articles/read/Who-Leads-the-Residential-PV-Monitoring-Market It's a subjective thing, and depends on your wants and perceived needs. I am biased, but for good reason. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sorry Peter, I meant that SolarLog is more comprehensive than something like the Geo unit....hence the wink SolarLog does actually have storage monitoring capabilities, and load management, but I am not au fait with the specifics. I'll get the detail and report back. What do you mean by the SE...

    Thanks, I've heard rumours that SE are promoting the old "charge from grid at night" line, via an AC connection to the Tesla battery unit - let me know if you hear the same tomorrow? For monitoring, you'll need SolarLog to give you all the info required ;) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cheap Chinese Inverters

    I wouldn't necessarily put them in the same category as the car audio example you gave to be honest, there are very few "re-badged" inverters out there that have the same innards, as far as I know. There are some that have been re-branded along the way, due to commercial integration, or...

    Cheap Chinese Inverters

    Most 1ph "budget" inverters out of Asia are pretty poorly designed, using bare-minimum spec components. There's only a few brands I would touch to be honest. Chris West moved to SolarCentury in Panama didn't he?

    Nice one Peter, how did the Tesla install go? Is the unit solely connected on the DC side, or is there a direct grid-connection to it too?

    Sounds good Worcester, glad you're keeping active. Whinmoor - let me know if you need any support with the G59 projects, from a grid-protection or monitoring/public display point of view (schools often specify monitoring/display requirements)

    The new version is pretty much exactly the same as the previous, except the standard now includes I-V curve tracing as an optional test. See below links that might help...

    DC fuse blowout

    Ok, doesn't sound like gPV fuses to me....do you know what the panel spec is, and the string config? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    DC fuse blowout

    Can you check the remaining fuses to see what size/type/rating they are perhaps?
