Its not necessarily overkill with the well pump. The pump horsepower
pretty much dictates the system minimum requirements. What is the HP?
Overall, I like Magnum's stuff. You might be able to get by with the
MM1500 watt inverter (mod sine) Are you planning on using Midnite's
panel? I've been p
Hello all,
I posted a week ago about the awful off-grid install at a local hunting shack
and we are now moving on to the re-build portion of the job. I've been looking
at the Magnum Energy MS series inverter/charger. I'd like to also use Magnum
mini panel for the geny, DC loads, and AC loads.
Wrenches,
Has anyone tried to do a grid-tie AC coupled system with a Trace/Xantrex SW4024
inverter and a GT inverter? Is the Trace's stepped waveform an issue for the GT
inverter?

Fella's,I'm using the Viper Model 5026 refractometer ... 5026 ... My brother
who is a heavy duty mechanic ordered it for me a few years ago from his Mac
Tool dealer after i was 'venting' about getting inaccurate readings from a
hydrometer. Cost was about $80. Came with a hard plastic case tha
Jason:
I faced a similar dilemma when I installed my first triple XW system. The
dilemma had two aspects: 1. How can I configure the system to allow the
customer to manually bypass with either the generator or the grid inputs?
and 2. How can I fit all of the input and output circuit breakers
Jason:
A possible solution might be a 3-pole / 3-wire manual transfer switch,
or an automatic transfer switch that has manual transfer capability.
If the three Xantrex XW inverters are in a WYE configuration and set up
as a "separately derived system", you will need a 4-pole / 4-wire ATS so
Jason,
If you don't find an off-the-shelf product, try Midnite - Robin has
custom-built weird stuff for me.

Hi Jason,
How about a standard 60a 2 pole mechanical transfer switch?

I am looking for an external output bypass assembly for a Xantrex 3 x
XW4024 system. My customer wants to be able to completely bypass the
inverter output and operate loads straight from the grid - similar to
what can be done in an Outback FlexWare system with their I/O bypass
assemblies.

Hi Jeff,
How much do you "clean or rinse" your unit between each cell?
I'm trying to figure out how much I need to do between each test.
thanks,

Search for Battery Refractometers on eBay, I got a nice one for under $25 from
China, exact same item I've seen here in the U.S. for >$70. I keep a small vial
of distilled water in the pouch for calibration, just a drop each time is all
it takes. They often include a scale for Antifreeze reading

I asked you about a generator since the future addition on one might
influence your selected solution.
The GenReady ATS does not include any load-shedding control algorithm
based on AC input voltage (representing full load/overload sensing) that
would have to be left unused.
Happy Monday Morningany of you all heard of a NEMA 4 or 4x load center
that can be mounted on a slope like the midnite solar or outback power
rooftop combiners.? AC Single phase, 6 space, 60-100A, with a main
breaker?
Proving difficult to locate

Dear Wrenches,
I have a meeting scheduled with a local jurisdiction that charges
substantially more for permitting and inspections than other AHJ's. Any
idea where I can get national statistics on permit costs for solar water
heating?
Also, what is your jurisdiction doing for plan review an
