[QUOTE="johnb2713, post: 530783, member: 35153"] How would we explain this in Yorkshire........... ******** LOL For example, your 3.6kW inverter is doing it's stuff, the solar on the roof is supply 2.4 kW (its a nice day), and battery is full. The washing machine is running taking a 2.2kW load, the missis is ironing taking a 900w load. The inverter is supply these loads totalling 3.1kW by taking the 2.4kW from the roof and 0.7 kW from the battery. All good. Then you switch a 2 kW kettle on, the invert ramps up to it's maximum of 3.6kW and the balance needed (1.5kW) is imported from the grid. If you'd had a 6 kW inverter, it would all been handled by the inverter / solar / battery. There are obviously many other combinations that will exceed the maximum 3.6kW output - electric hob with 2 rings \ oven \ tumble drier etc. The battery has a CAPACITY of 5.2kWh, hybrid inverter makes no difference (it can charge the battery from the grid or from solar). Youre very welcome. J [/QUOTE]
