  1. Excuse my ignorance - i am not an expert in this field. My problem seems to be the other way around. The fuses that are related to the power supply on the av receiver blows when the changeover goes from the grid to the battery. I have not noticed an issue when it is on grid power. We cant put a higher fuse as that is the maximum allowed by the manufacturer to retain the warranties - i would assume that is a protection to stop major damage. I just wonder whether logically it would make sense to bypass this protection with higher fuses without remedying / figuring out what is the actual issue with this invertor. I have a Clearline Power + Surge Tripconnect that is connected from the AV receiver to the plugpoint. This does not seem to resolve the issue. I think that is because that is rated at 10amps. There might be a bit too high for the 3.15a fuse in the receiver.
  2. Hi there Do you know any installers in Cape Town area that can do the neutral internal bonding for me?
  3. I sent an email to Luxpower and received no reply. [email protected] . Do you perhaps have another email address for Luxpower support?
  4. I think it is UPS. Should it be changed to APL?
  5. Please let me know if it works when you get your receiver back. I will then ask the electrician to come and change for me.
  6. Hi there. I have the same problem. Happens when there is a changeover to the battery. Blows the fuse in av receiver only. Luxpower inverter. Did u manage to find a solution?
  7. Hi there I have a Luxpower 5Kw SNA Invertor with a Shoto 5.12kwh battery. This was installed in December 2022. The installer obtained the settings for this from the supplier and inputted them. Since December, the fuse keeps blowing my AV receiver (around 5 times now). The AV receiver has a few fuses, however the one that goes is related to its power supply. The seems to happen when the power swaps over from Eskom to battery. The AV receivers has been to the agents a few times and they have confirmed that there is nothing wrong with it. They have actually changed all of the parts related to the blown fuses hence we have struck off the AV receiver failure. The electrician said that he did the tests and the voltage is fine however it cant be fine if the AV receiver keeps blowing fuses. Please can you provide some guidance as to what i need to ask the electrician to check / do? Thanks
