    two inverters connected separate or parallel

    I have two inverters wired to two strings. Do I need two separate wires from each inverter to an individual mcb. Or can I dual up the supply so only using 1 isolator at the generation meter end. I will still have 2 isolators in the loft adjacent each inverter. Or is it best practice to run 2...

    Monitoring Real Time Generation

    SunnyBoy @ 240 volts

    Hi Might seem a dumb question, but is it likely the Sunny Boy inverters will be OK with an incoming AC voltage of 240volts, given the nominal AC voltage is 230volts?? And given that, what is the Nominal AC voltage range...(according to spec 220, 230, 240 V; 180 – 280 V)? Does it...

    difference in generation

    Two installs 150m apart same size same orientation, one slight shading, approx 50% difference between the two, only on the days with very low light levels did shading install do better. Is it all down to shading ??

    Generation Meter stuck on 00000000.4

    Maybe too many, or not enough, zeros there! Anyway, does anyone have any idea why a generation meter wouldn't have moved from this number for a few days? It came pre-configured as this (I'm assuming it was tested prior to being sent out). Also, the generation meter has a constant red light on...

    Sealing the generation meter?

    Hm, just saw the MCS doc on metering for the first time which says: "The meter and terminal cover should be sealed to ensure that the customer cannot access either." Does anyone know if we need to buy a specialist sealing tool for the meter then, or is this something the DNO or Energy...
