If the inverter were in search, I would think that there would be no AC power produced by the micro inverters at all because of anti-islanding. boB On 9/21/2015 4:40 PM, Jay wrote: Nope wasn't in search when I had flicker. If the loads were greater than the enphase production then no flick

Nope wasn't in search when I had flicker. If the loads were greater than the enphase production then no flicker. If it was "charging" then there was flicker. My vfx 3524 is 8+ years old, but I don't think that would be a factor. Jay. Sent from my iPhone > On Sep 21, 2015, at 12:46 PM, j

Hi Matt, I can’t tell you the reason but I had the same problem on my Outback VFX. I didn’t put it on a O scope, but sure looked like a 60 cycle flicker to me. On my system of 2 enphase, when the loads exceeded the output of the enphase the flicker when away. But only 2 isn’t very real world.

I wired an Enphase string into my critical loads panel at my shop. I was curious to see how it would work as I have customers with Enphase systems that occasionally contact me about adding a battery backup system. Why do the fluorescent lights and LEDs flicker once the grid power is dropped. The
