Hi,
I am doing a self build campervan conversion and currently in the process of doing the electrics.
I'm confident with the 12v circuit design but after some advice on the 230V.
I have 200aH AGM batteries at 12V then a 600W inverter. Plan is to fuse the 12v positive lead input to the...
A few days ago I purchased a solar panel to start a PV inverter project. Additional devices used are TFT LCD, rechargeable lithium batteries and microcontrollers.
hi , i have been googling eg "grid tied inverter disconnection voltage in UK" but no luck
Does a grid tied inverter disconnect of mains is outside 230V+10% and 230V-6% ?
And does it take 4 minutes to reconnect?....ie, it waits for mains to come into range again, and then assures its been in...
Hi,
I have bought a 2kW grid tied inverter for putting energy from my solar battery back onto the mains.
Will i need a 6mA/30mA RCD just upstream of the GT inverter?
We plan to upgrade our 500w inverter to a 3000w inverter in order to accommodate a .75hp water pump (used only three times per week for 20mins), a small fridge and a couple of standing fans. We currently have 4 x 120w solar panels, 2 x 24v batteries and a Vitron Blue Solar MPPT 100/50 charge...
I have a Samlex 600 Watt PSW AC inverter. The inverter connects to the battery source by way of the positive and negative clamps from the back of the inverter. I have isolated it away from all connections. It is connected to the 12 volt battery only. It beeps.
Presently, the battery voltage...
I'm hoping someone out there has come across this problem.
Just had -8 days ago- a 6k solar panel system plus 4.8k battery pack installed.
When the electrician left the batteries showed 20%full.
Next few days inverter showed producing 30kwh but batteries did not charge.
We normally use 8.5kwh...

Hi all
I hope everyone is doing well.
I have a new rural small house coming up that I need to use generator power for.
It's 105 sqm and the time and cost to get connected to the grid need to be pushed out for me. (1-2 years)
Has anyone any experience with some type of battery connected to a...
Firstly Thank You for the opportunity to join your forum.
I have just bought a Steca (Studer) XPC 2200- 24 inverter second hand for my 24 volt solar system .
When I wired it up and turned it on with AC in and out connected the AC present light was flashing which means suitable AC is not...
Hi Guys,
Thanks for the add, got a reasonable understanding but motors ant my thing.
Trying to run a 3kw 3ph motor on a Alan Bradley Inverter that I Have had for a few years.
It isn't happening on load so 3000/240 is 12.5A this total so 4A per phase?
So the AB is rated at 230v 12A is 2760 or...
Hi, I’m just wondering if its theoretically speaking possibly to start your PV system and inverter when its power failure ? And its not hybrid inverters with a backup system.
I’m thinking the following things to start a Inverter during a power failure
You put of the setting at the...
I've been trying to find out what is up with my mother's solar panel system - as a DIYer, I'm comfortable with domestic electrics but have no experience of solar PV systems. The inverter won't start up and is displaying the error 'FE not connected' which according to the manual means protective...
Hello,
i am trying to repair an Enecsys SMI 480-60 Solar inverter.
I was looking for a schematic on the internet for quit a long time and finally found a schematic on this forum wich is very great.

Hi all.
My Sunnyboy 3000hf inverter was making an intermittent buzzing noise and displaying fault code 77 which often means a relay problem. So I opened the case and gave the relay a tap to see if stuck and the relays close OK, but I can see the buzzing is coming from what I think is the...
Hello, I have a refrigerant recycling machine in my work van and don't want to run an extension cord from a customers house to the machine in my van, what size inverter do I need to run the recycling machine safely?
Post in thread 'Domestic - 4 or 5 pin plugs for 3 phase supply from inverter?' by pgrbff has been reported by James. Reason given:

I have recently bought a 3 phase bandsaw for hobby use and acquired a single phase to 3 phase inverter to power it.
When I looked at buying cable and plugs/sockets for the supply I didn't know if I should choose 3P + earth or 3P N + earth plugs and sockets.
What is the difference and which...
