Long runs of URD direct buried? Just a nick into the metal can corrode
the cable all the way through over time. We use conduit for almost
everything anymore. The savings with URD doesn't pan out, when you have

I was troubleshooting a site on Friday with the same Imax error on the same
SB8000 inverter. Took the cover off and found a cracked capacitor.
Inverter was manufactured 12/2021 and SMA is telling me it’s out of warranty
(by a week). I’m

Hello
we have a lot of PAE series magnum inverters out there.
One client lately has been experiencing voltage drop and failure of PCBs in two
of his household appliances. I know it’s common to have some dimming of the

connected to a quad stack of Sunny Island system that's off-grid.
