  1. the SNA5000 Mppt port range is 120-385v....so with 2 panels you under 100v so that Mppt port wont activate, better to fit 4 panels max 8 per string once firmware updated on that inverter.
  2. are you using the app on phone or web page, on the web page if you go into maintenance, select Read, then scroll to the bottom, check server Ip and change that to Africa and select Set.
  3. Hi, Will you consider selling the inverter only
  4. change your EOD from 50% to a higher value.....currently its set to use from battery until 50% then use from eskom
  5. is the 3 LED lights showing on the dongle, also it must be a 2.4ghz wifi network
  6. Cool, that make sense, thank you.
  7. yes I saw that about the battery level, thought there was a way to change it on the inverter
  8. Hi guys, on the Luxpower SNA500 can I use the dry contact to activate the contactor relay and create the Earth/Neutral bond. I tried testing for continuity on the dry contact NO1, Com and NC1 pins but it does not seem to complete the circuit, whether AC In is on or off, is there a setting on the inverter to activate this...or what can I use to activate the contactor relay

    Cool....so do they just need the Invoice showing the price and spec of panels from our installer along with the COC or is there more requirements, I know it only applies for 2023

    Hi...has anyone here applied for the Solar Panel Rebate, what are the actual requirements....does the rebate apply to the actual solar panel price or to the total bill for the install.

    thanks for the info....on the pvc conduit, is there a bracket available that can be used to secure the conduit to the roof tiles

    How does one install 6 of these panel on the apex of a roof, 3 on East wing and 3 of West wing without running a cable over the apex. I can connect 2 in Series on each wing and run that string to the combiner box or branch connector...but how do I connect the remaining single panels on each wing of the roof in series. Do I go over the apex or the long way around or is there a better solution to this problem.....cannot add another 2 panels due to space
  14. To be honest I am not even sure if locally manufactured or now, panels seem to be of decent quality and good value for money
