min.emerg reacted to TaliaB in Any COC Requirements for Non-Grid Connected Solar Battery Backup Solution?@min.emergJust keep this in mind. If you are using class 2 appliances( double insulated 2 pin plug) from your multiplug you are ok. But if you are powering class 1 appliances ( 3pin plug) you need a seperate RCD(earth leakage) before the multiplug. In the event of LS or power outage from Eskom you will have no earth fault protection as the RCD in the main db will not trip in the event of an faulty appliance/s. You will also need a non permanent earth/ neutral bond on the output of the inverter. Seeing that it is a Voltronic clone there might be an earth/ neutral relay i am not familiar with the 1.2kva RCT.

min.emerg got a reaction from TaliaB in Any COC Requirements for Non-Grid Connected Solar Battery Backup Solution?Yup, mine is pretty much exactly the same except I only have a circuit breaker on the positive cable between the inverter and the battery. My plan is to plug a panel into the bottom right soloar-in ports (I think my inverter is similar to yours). I'll have a 14A fuse on the positive cable from the solar panel.
