3phase Inverter or convert to 2x Single Phase inverts
Nishaan Singh replied to Nishaan Singh's topic in Starting In Solar? Feel free to introduce yourselfGreat, thanks, i appreciate the inputs... My Final decision is to convert to Single Phase power, install 10kw PV array, 2x 5.5kw Sunsynk Inverters and 4x5kw FreedomWon batteries. Next Question, has anyone successfully integrated these components into a home automation/Smart home solution?

3phase Inverter or convert to 2x Single Phase inverts
Nishaan Singh replied to Nishaan Singh's topic in Starting In Solar? Feel free to introduce yourselfAwesome Folks, appreciate the inputs comments and suggestions. A have discussed this with a few people and have opted for 2x inverters and switching to single phase. My next dilemma is what size inverters to choose. 2x 5.5kw or 2x 8.8kw. having busy and long weekdays, we generally cook over the weekend, either a Saturday or Sunday. So, the stove is used for a couple of hours, oven for 1.5 hrs, and the kettle and microwave are used in between. I don't want to trip the inverters with over loading them during this time. would the 2x 8.8kw be overkill and the money be spent on an extra battery. I will be starting with 15kw of battery backup and 10kw of solar capacity. PS. have installed the Xtend PTC 2kw elements in all 3 geysers and have installed the CBI astute breakers to monitor and control usage.

3phase Inverter or convert to 2x Single Phase inverts
Good day, I am considering the implementation of a solar hybrid solution for my home that has 3 phase power. I have no 3 phase equipment. My power consumption is around 55kwh per day. Major load items are 3 x Geysers, 1 x pool, Several computers/laptops, 2 x Fridge/Freezers, Stove, Kettle & microwave. I have been exploring installing a 12kw Sunsynk 3phase inverter with 10kw solar panels and 15kw freedomwon batteries. It would be the simplest integration, however, i have unbalanced loads. There are restrictions within the inverter as to the maximum load that can be supported per phase. Another school of thought is to convert to single phase, have multiple inverters in parallel and then have a higher sustained load that can be supported. My questions here are:- 1. Remain 3phase, begin with a single 12kw inverter and add an additional should there be a need or 2. Install 2x 5.5kw Sunsynk inverters or 3. Install 2x 8.8 kw Sunsynk inverters. I would like to do this in a phased implementation, i have approximately R220k now and i am happy to make an investment later in 3x5kw Freedomwon batteries. I look forward to your thoughts and possible recommendations on this.
