Good morning I carry out repairs on inverters and over the years have succeeded in many but it depends on what is wrong , also parts can be an issue. Some brands have there own know faults many old units have poor soldered joints which cause huge issues and some burn out the PCB boards beyond...

I have been questioning similar situations. I recently contacted Hyundai as there new Iq5 ev has like many now the ability to use it's battery to say power appliances or say running a lead into a home to keep the fridge freezer going. I was concerned about similar issues. Now your plugged a...

With the prices now I think it's a huge mistake to phase out e7. It saves me loads each year.

You have to manage your use. We use timers on our appliances many have delayed timers built in. We do this to maximise our saving buy using as much of the economy 7 rates. So washing machine ,dishwasher , ev charging, sauna are all going on in the e7 times. We even have chest freezer on timers...

Ok guys you can exceed the 3.68 limit . You just need to apply to your dno . I myself have exceeded this and had to pay £380 to my dno for apparently for them to upgrade there network,well I think that was bull. But anyway I have 10kw system.

Hi. I have 2 battery systems connected to home ,I am fully aware of what loads each system can pull, but my question is really to find a tech solution to allow me to charge my evs on economy 7 without pulling from both separate battery's. I do not want both battery's to drain to help to charge...

I have growatt products , and I used to be able to call the UK tech chap, they had a few over the years so not sure if Ben is still there guy but they are all helpfull. On my system you have to go into the maintance side which requires another differant password.i would advise talking to them...

I have myself played with 2 differant turbines. My advise is to make sure it's location is correct. My mistake was placing my concreat base in the wrong position and a tree was actually causing turbulent issues. I would spend time reading wind direction around the area you may consider for a...

Huge issue ,Murdoch is 100% make sure it's netted.

It's placed in an IP rated box and only used for test purpose to save getting ladders out to connect when testing

I simply run an earth cable down on all installs now. I was advised by an expert.

Our of interest should the panels and rail be bonded and would it not be good practice to run a bond from arrays to inverter to allow test equipment like the seaward pv150 to connect up to test ground faults issues

I my self missed out last year , I had planned just to fit ev chargers done and got up-to-date with training but the CPC changed the goal posts and now require anyone who wants to join a CPC scheme to have the nvq which leads to am2 . Previously they would have taken people on with just...

Lol

I am in midwales and my 13kw system in winter does very little . I am increasing it by another 4kw just for winter only.

Binky is 100% on this. With that amount of PV you should not waist it . Heat up water, offer free ev charging to customers. In the summer you have these issues but winter you may find it works in your favour .

Lol fantastic, your correct and according to hse qualified electricians are still not getting it right, but we all think we are the best. Diyers need to get proper skilled electricians in to satisfy safety always.

Oh Murdoch you are so into health and safety. If your all that concerned then you should stop this forum right away and only skilled electricians should use it only. People who are knowledgeable will ask u you questions but every question will relate to touching , making a new circuit as that's...

Appoligies for jumping in. Can you not use an off grid system with batterys. Then having an auto or manual switching arrangement like say a generator would use to switch back to grid. My dno want £15k to upgrade my transformer so I can have 3phase. I have and am just testing a goodwe system and...
