[QUOTE="rabnudj, post: 538878, member: 36019"] Hi, Following on from my previous post I have another question that I'm struggling with. It might be best to start with explaining what I want my system to do as a background to my inverter question. I want my 4kw panels feeding into a hybrid inverter that charges a decent sized battery(14kwa) and exports as little as possible. I'd like the batteries/solar via the inverter to be able to support 5kw of power load. This will mean that inverter will have enough power to deliver over the 3.68KW G98 limit, I understand that many inverters self limit by monitoring the export. So my 1st question... When an inverter is rated 5kw what does this refer to exactly ? * power conversion from solar to battery * Power conversion from solar to AC * Power conversion from battery to AC Or does it refer to all three or combination? My 2nd question... If a 5kw inverter (over G98 limit) self limits export to bellow 3.68KW is this G98 compliant ? and lastly, any general comments about hybrid inverter choice would be most welcome TIA James [/QUOTE]
