Hi, my solar installation isn’t properly earthed and I get a shock during the daytime if I touch any part of my garage metal installation ( panels installed on my garage roof) including the metal tracks that my garage door runs in . what is the process for earthing my panels if I were to do this myself

I had two Axpert 5KW invertors installed about 3 years ago . Do these require firmware updates and if so , how do I do those updates .

Hi , I have been using ICC for 2 years monitoring my Axpert invertors, Hubble batteries and solar panels . i recently noticed this Solar Assistant software and it looks intriguing . any recommendations on which to use ( including functionality - eg . I often want to look back longer than the time the default charts show on dashboards , but have never found a way to do this with ICC Also , do any of these have a way to monitor upcoming grid outages for loadshedding and optimize settings accordingly

Hi, I have a vacation home that has a prepaid meter from Conlog . I’d love to have : 1. A way to monitor the meter remotely ( a camera pointed to it just isn’t working for me ) 2. a way to load tokens into the meter remotely eg . Over Wi-Fi does anyone offer anything like this . I have hunted around with no luck

Hi, I am a newbie but trying to get more self educated . I have 2 Axpert 5 KW invertors that are configured to run in parallel with two Hubble X100-48 batteries along with a 16 panel solar array on my roof I have invertors and batteries connected to a PI running ICC software . Right now everything in my house is connected to the invertor output except my two geysers which are still fed direct by grid my installer configured my SOC settings “ to grid “ at 52 and “ to SBU “ at 80 i have no idea if this is optimal or not and also don’t know what conditions need to be in place for my battery to charge above 80% . My charger source priority is set to “ solar first “ i notice on this forum that many people show SOC settings much lower than mine ( eg . 25 and 35) and would love some feedback and recommendations . My consumption through the invertor late at night and until 6 in the morning averages around 400W ( excl geysers) . After 6 , my irrigation pump starts , pushing consumption up to about 1500-1800 W or so ) . I wish that my invertors were smart enough to know when outages were going to happen ( eg . By reading data off the ESP App ) because if I set the SOC numbers low , how do I know there will be enough battery capacity left to power the house especially when I am not getting power from solar eg . 4am outage for 2-3 hours also , as I mentioned , right now my geyers are on grid . I have not connected them to the invertor ( which would be nice to leverage solar powering them during the day because I can’t control when an essential item like ovens comes on while geyers are also heating pushing the invertor to its max capacity . I have seen comments on “ non essential circuits “ but I don’t think I have that on my Axpert’s Thank you for your feedback and input . I hope I submitted this in the right topic area .
