Here is my two cents worth. the PW is "grid following" and so is the sunny
boy when the grid is up. When the grid fails the PW becomes grid forming,
bi-directional, inverter charger with frequency shift to control charging.
The newer SBs will accept frequency shifts and be controlled. So yes it
Hi Darryl -
Yea, you have a good point. We have recently used the SMA freq/watt
curtailment feature on a bigger off grid system with SMA Tripower inverters
and a Tesla Powerpack. We programmed a curve into the SMA inverters so that
the Powerpack can throttle SMA PV production on a smooth curve, ra
Hi Folks
We have a scenario where we would like to control when our system sells
power back to the grid. Basically, we only want to sell back while the sun
is shining. We would like to stop selling based on programmed clock
settings. I know in HBX mode we can control when we buy from the grid
Hello Kirpal
Hello Wrenches
This can be accomplished using the Mate3(s) and Flextime.
Flextime allows up to 3 modes in a 24 hour day.
Flextime uses a 24 hour clock to instruct a system to switch modes based on
time.
A good knowledge of the modes and how they work is helpful.
Results may vary depen
Wrenches, Kirpal
I use the grid connection in the mate, grid use, and set the inverter to
connect only at that time, its far from. Ideal but seems to do the job. I
have tried the HBX but its inverse to what l wanted it to do, we are
fortunate to have a Outback guy on this forum and he may chime in
Hi Jay
Hi Larry
The X240 is a 4000 watt transformer it is also available in the PSX-240
Both can be used as a step up, a step down or a balancing xfmr.
Below is a link to the manuals.

I have a client whose Trace DR 1524 inverter (yes, it's an old system) fan
is running constantly.
I haven't been to the site (3 hour drive, 1 hour boat ride) but I am
guessing that it's a failure of a temperature sensor.
Does anyone have experience with something like this?

Jon – if you are installing in PG&E territory, the Sunny Boys (with CA Rule 21
settings enabled) will have freq-watt enabled, so they will reduce power
linearly when the PW begins to increase frequency in backup mode as well.
As Jerry mentioned, this has been a required function that must be ena
This issue makes SolArk a non-starter (pun intended) for us. I am not a bit
interested in trying to resolve simple issues (like running a 120V table saw -
come on!) that should be taken care of before a product is released for sale.
Like a lot of places, it looks like net metering is pretty mu
I might consider taking a loaner inverter with you, l have had the SW and
DR inverters have calibration failures not just sensor failures, if you are
getting a boat ride, corrosion is a good possibility so again bring a
loaner OB 2524 or maybe he may want to buy it anyway.

Can you folks tell me if Victron is UL listed for a Grid application and
can it easily work split phased?
Thank-you !

Sounds like the thermistor is bad. Kris @ Tekris power 732 938-4996. To heck w/
the thermistor bring em a new inverter!

Dear All,
I apologize for letting this conversation get a little stale before being able
to comment further.
Before I reply, I would like to say I don't believe MLSD has anything to do
with firefighter safety. If being on dangerous roofs was really a concern,
