  1. Hi Everyone I've recently Installed 50Kw Deye Inverter with 36 JA 555 watts Panels and 6 pieces of 5,12 High Voltage. Intially the Production was good to Approximately 130kwh from Solar.My Panels are in two strings.First string is of 12 Panels in Series with the Voc of 49,9v per panel and an imp of 13A Second string is of series parallel connection 24 panels in 12 panels per string x 2 then Parallelled together Recently the production from the solar is really down to 0,80kwh per day ,The maximum Power send to the inverter is below 100w according to my monitoring System what could be the cause of This downfall in production thank you
  2. Please contact me Anytime 0625774033
  3. @stefan44hi Stefan, any recommendations for the manufacturer? I need them in numbers, would even arrange a meeting for further Discussion, Thank you
  4. Good day Power Forum Members I'm looking for a Ups Battery of high Voltage of 192v and 92v respectively . I need a singe piece ,not considering Series Connection Any recommendations pls Shout out Thank you
  5. Good day Power Forum, my lovely Family. Another day With another Problem. I've recently visited an Installation which had a problem of Power surge of above 400VAC (picture attached) but only on certain plugs .The SPD specifications are as follows-Imax 10kA -IN 5kA Up1.5kV.- Uc 275V, and Earth leakage with no Overload protection. Yes the inverter is being supplied before Earth leakage. Now the problem is after a period of about 10 minutes the earth leakage is tripping together with the Gyser Breaker but that doesn't affect The System. That E/L is only Supplying to the Stove And Gyser. And Also in what state does Those indicators has to be always on? What are the side effects of having Dc cables and AC cables in the same conduit?
  6. Good day Everyone Hope you all good. I've been up all day trying to figure out my upcoming project System Size. Headache is killing me now ,maths isn't for everyone 🤗. Ok here is the setup of my system. There is 3 water pumps=3 kw three Phase, and 2 of 1,5kw Single phases and the house is pulling 18 kw from the Grid. So considering the start up power for morors I'm doubling the wattage for pumbs to 12kw + 18kw for the house it comes to 30kw. The client want the pumbs to run even during at night using batteries and also he wants to put panels that will able to supply during the day and charge the battery at the same time. So my question is how many batteries would be good for the system and panels array (550w) that will operate as specified Will also appreciate the workout process to learn Thank you
  7. Good Day everyone 😄 Haveca nice weekend
  8. At 16m² you'll a voltage drop of around 4_5% for cabling sizing only before wiring, crimping and anything else that adds up the drop Rather go for thicker cable like 35mm² - 75mm² to cover the Losses
  9. Good Day Power Forum Members.. I'm having a Question here regarding my monthly Bill picture down there .What Size of Solar system that could be enough for this Building Thank you

  21. @Kilowatt Power thank you for your input...but the battery capacity is quite different from my set Up..mine it's 3,5kwh /74 AH with the maximum Discharge of 2.4 Kwh/50 AH and Charging Current of 50 A...do i still need to go for 70sqm cable and 200Amp Fuses?
  22. Good day Family I just read something that crooked my mind..i had this knowledge that to find proper Battery Fuses Disconnectors sizes you need to devide Inverter Capacity ie Wattage with Nominal Voltage of the Battery Example 10 kw inverter divided by 48v of the battery which gives 208 Now i came across this whereby it says Continuous Power Rating of the Inverter devided by Lowest Voltage of the battery,i assume thats Cut off Voltage and Devide by 0.85 How do you do it exactly Thank you
  23. VictorD changed their profile photo
  24. @Kilowatt Power sorry for responding Lately..i lost the tracking..anyway here are the specs for both the inverter and the battery..your input was/is really helpful..
  25. 0,5c how did you come up with that....im really intrested in that and also when you said inverter output breaker 5,5A, does that limit the user to a load of 1280W
