  1. Hi Juvan Did you manage to get the Dyness battery to talk to the Pi(SolarAssistant)
  2. Hi Phoenix752 Thanx for the response. Initially when I discovered the heat issue I saw the fuses were ac fuses and swooped them out with dc fuses. I will get a different breaker and advise the outcome.
  3. Morning hoohloc. Thank You for the reply. The funny part is that the fuses also get very hot. I have disconnected them as a process of elimination and only have the breaker connected now. Ill get another one (different brand) and give it a go. Ill also give the ferrules ago even if it just neatens up the install.
  4. Thank You P1000 for the suggestion Will get hold of some ferrules and let you know.
  5. Hi, Thank You for the responce. The install is only 3 weeks old so No oxidation. No ferrules, wires connected bare.
  6. Hi All New to the solar game. Put my own system together and everything worked well up to the point where I started adding bigger loads to the solar during the day. When the load is +-500watts there are no problems but when I up the load to +- 1500watt the breaker trips after a while and feels warm to the touch. The fuses are also hot. I have 4 x 460 Watt Canadian panels connected 2S2P, 5kva mecer inverter, 4 x 100 amp gel’s. 48volt system. I am using a MC4-T2 connecter to parallel the 2 serie strings. The breaker is a 63A Dc 2P breaker. Any thoughts or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
