An option that will work for sure is a diversion load and controller. This can be done with most standard CC’s and or inverters using the AUX relay driving another SS relay, and then the diversion load. The load can be a standard AC oil heater, safe, inexpensive, reliable. ( this is what I use for my own hydro diversion) The size of the diversion would depend on battery bank size, type, GTI size, system load etc.
As to cost, sub $100 in parts. I’m thinking that Kienan is right here. AC coupling control is done on the frequency side, not any change in AC voltage. My experience with doing it in the past on my own system didn’t show any change in AC voltage. But it wasn’t a large AC couple production vs size of the inverter ( 600 watts vs 3500 inverter) so maybe I didn’t have enough to drive up the AC volts? jay peltz power _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Redwood Alliance List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org Change listserver email address & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org/maillist.html List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm Check out or update participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org
