    Esquema got a reaction from jumper in Newbee, going to Install new system   
    Because i will receive money from the government I am not allowed to sell excess to the electricity company.   WHY, the government is owner of 51% of the electricity company.
    What I will use for the excess is the FREEDS. I have a solar water heater which has an electric element( I never used), the element will work with freeds. When there is excess electricity , it is sent to the element in the water tank. Freeds communicates via wifi with a shelly(with clamps) to know if i am exporting to the grid.  I will put some photos o my solar water heater and freeds. On the display is the watts consumed from the grid (769watts). When I finish my installation and have excess the display will go negative (-).(-). I bought the board from  https://www.tindie.com/products/bugrovs2012/pwm-16a-3500w-triac-leading-edge-dimmer-50hz-60hz/.

    I am new here. I am going to install a new system in my home. I Live in the Azores in the Saint Jorge island. The Azorean government has program for solar systems with 100% support in money. My application was accepted (a lot of documentation was necessary) , which consists of Goodwe gw5048d-es and 12 solar panels Hyundai 485 watts. My house has on side of the roof facing sunrise and the other sunset which is not optimal. I am going to put 6 panels on each side making two strings in total. Each side will have two rows with 3 panels each, one above the other. My question: Should I leave a space between the rows or not, with a space its better for maintenance? But her in Azores the wind sometimes is very strong and the panels together maybe better. Hope someone can help. Sorry for my bad English.
