    Try here SUN-BATT LV | Jendustries
  2. Line drawing will help
  3. If you can DIY.... UNI-T UT673PV Solar MPPT Meter UT673PV Solar MPPT Meter,Miscellaneou,Environmental Testers Isolate all PV from your system and disconnect each panel for testing early morning before voltages of panels rise. Just remember, this tester is for testing ONE panel at a time.

    What type of lights? Halogen or Led? Voltages between Life & Neutral. Then mainly, voltage between Neutral and Earth at that stage. If proper Neutral_Earth bond when in Island mode, there should be no voltage between N&E.
  5. The thing I have with unknown suppliers is looking at their websites. Some links on their website are incorrect, or show irrelevant information.
  6. @Solar Deity PTY LTD Glad you got an extended period. Please ask Pylon Technologies Co. Ltd (?) to send you a new certificate. "is athorized as" SIC. 🤣
  7. You must say what kind of roof cover. Corrugated, IBR, Slate or concrete tiles.
  8. 🏃‍♂️
  9. Little off topic but for those that want to make up their own Sunsynk 5.32 cables with the push-in connector- Communica now got stock SUN-BATT-CONN 5KWH OR - Communica [Part No: SUN-BATT-CONN 5KWH OR] SUN-BATT-CONN 5KWH BK - Communica [Part No: SUN-BATT-CONN 5KWH BK]
  10. That is because they used Flat 2+Earth. You should get voltage between the neutrals and the 3 red (lifes) all the time and not between Neutrals and the top single red if the switch is off. One of the 3 is the actual supply from DB(?) and then get bridged to 2 different circuits.
  11. Make sure your router is connected at 2.4GHz.
  12. Chrisc already tried and chucked Solar Assistant. Don't make him angry now with this third party stories.😃
  13. Side by side then those you show is correct
  14. That is correct. But make sure if you want the short or long cables. (depends on where you mount the second battery) Short for side by side, long for top and bottom. {Typical Voltex, also bought another 2 batteries September 2025 from them, still waiting for them to supply only the connectors so that I can make up my own cables. Eventually, I cut that short cable in half and jointed it with a ferrule and lug to the busbar. }
  15. @chrisc "a picture paints a thousand words" One can never supply enough pictures so that somebody can help/advise
  16. ....and Soutie, what happened? Watching this space for a long time.😄 (2 months)

    Spammer is back.

    Looks like we got a Troll onboard🤬
  19. Jeesh!! What a show piece of excellent craftmanship! Look, even the cable already got a knot to tie it to the rail.🤣
  20. Why I asked, it looks like 10 panels in landscape mode (2 rows, of 5) So, this lot must be mounted on one frame at an angle. He can't mount each panel at an angle separately because of shading from one panel onto another.
  21. Stupid question. Can't you lift the roof structure to give more angle?
  22. So, NO ring feeders?😒
