Wrenches Noise in the AC circuits and Enphase is nothing new, when they adapted the new frequency this was in part to get away from the noise so it sounds like they still have a problem. I have seen a variety of new products effect the data stream. Jerry On Thu, Oct 15, 2020, 2:37 PM wrote: > We

I don't agree with this advice about the ferrite rings. Put the ferrite rings on the Enphase combined inverter output circuit from the AC combiner to the point of interconnection. That filters out all noise from all sources. I can be a pain with larger conductor sizes if you have to loop the conduc

We have a 53 IQ7 microinverter system on new-build construction that reported and performed just great until the homeowner (a custom builder, and one I'm trying not to unimpress!) moved in Sept 1 at which point reporting went wonkers with inconsistent data, perceived underperformance that seemed to
