  1. Thanks all. All issues are solved. I appreciate all the feedback and I've learned a lot from this.
  2. Can confirm mine is definitely an 8kw inverter. Looks like wrong terminals have been used. About 3m. Not extended. Its the supplied black & white cable end to end.
  3. Thank you all for your advice. I've contacted the installer regarding this. They already need to come out to sort an issue with the battery so they'll sort this as well.
  4. Thanks for this. The coil is installed. The arrow is pointing away from the pre-paid meter. The coil is attached to terminals 3 & 4. I see on the board it is marked as CT-L1 and CT-L2. What is the difference?
  5. 1) It shows 0w regardless of system mode 2) Do you mean on the physical device? If so, I can open up my board tomorrow and have a look.
  6. Hello everybody, I have a relatively new install that has had some teething issues. I'm trying to establish if how I understand things should work is correct and there is fact a problem or maybe everything is working as expected and I'm just wrong. Your input and advice would be appreciated. Current Setup: Sunsynk 8kW Inverter 15x 455w Panels Freedom Won Lite Home 10/8 LiFePO4 Battery CT Coil installed. Cannot confirm if in correct place other than installer says it is. No feedback should be happening Load Split: Everything on load except geyser should be on non-essential load Problems: 1. Prepaid meter trips. - I have to turn off my Eskom Grid to get the meter to turn on again and see my unit count. If I turn Eskom Grid on again, it will trip within an hour. - Grid trickle feed is set to 20w - I have tried increasing this as high as 100w. Still trips. 2. Inverter appears to be blind to non-essential load. I believe all geyser usage is pulling from grid. - It was initially installed as everything on essential load by mistake. Every morning I could see a grid spike at 05:30 when my geyser turned on and battery was depleted - Since changing to non essential load I never see this movement. 3. I have unexpected usage according to flow screen when changing settings under System Mode 2: - "Zero export" & "Limit to Load only" ticked. "Solar export" unticked. System works as expected but cannot see non-essential load - "Zero export" ticked. "Limit to Load only" and "Solar export" unticked. All load appears to come from grid. PV drops to 0kW. - "Zero export" & "Solar export" ticked. "Limit to Load only" unticked. PV shoots up to max draw and I get negative load to grid. I'm assuming this means I'm feeding back.
