Not sure if this is the best place to start/continue my query, but:
I inherited my son in jhb's SunPays 5kVA inverter when he upgraded his system to a better(?) LuxPowerTek system with solar panels etc.
TSP system worked OK by me till we had 2 days without power whereafter it refused to start. I had the batteries charged and after much fiddling I managed to get the system to start.
A few months later samething happened but this time I could get the inverter to start so my son sent me a new LuxPowerTek which immediately started and is still running beautifully! 🤞
Now: I have this TSP inverter that seems to need a new relay, sitting in my garage where I am sure it can be fixed and be worth a few R's?
I am in Cape Town. Any suggestions? Or should I ship it to Jhb where I have been given a few names by TSP that can fix it?
Thanks!!
TSP Techie: "Daai lyk soos n faulty relay op die inverter moederboard. Die relay op die inverter se moederboard sal moet vervang word."
"Ek het vir TheSunPays gekontak en die tegniese ou daar Ruaan het my raad gegee. Hy ken daardie simptoom, en hy sê dis tipies die relay of die relay drive circuit.
Hy sê mens kan enige technician kontak wat 5kW Mecer of Kodak inverters regmaak. Hy ken net mense hier bo in Gauteng, maar niemand in Kaapstad nie."
"Dit is korrek. Enige tegniekus wat aan daai tipe inverters werk behoort die relay te kan vervang. Ek ken ongelukkig ook net technicians hier in Gauteng, maar ek weet n paar van hulle maak gebruik van courier dienste"
