Borehole and Filterting System
PaulinNorthcliff replied to Peter Topp's topic in Sustainable Landscaping
If I can jump in... they base your sewage charge on your water consumption else they use your stand size... which can become silly when you have a large stand but are only two people. -

So... we had Shabir (local technical expert for Deye) out at my property in December fiddling with settings to do exactly this. At first glance the generator needs to be able to power the ENTIRE system (load + charging). Even though we set the power to be drawn from the inverter well below the generator's rated output it still doesn't work. Shabir mentioned that the problem is likely that the Automatic Voltage Regulator on the genny causes the frequency to shift too rapidly for the inverter's liking... so the inverter puts load on the genny, the genny responds by accelerating the throttle w

Not to dis Victron. They are magnificent... pricey, but rock solid. However, that damned big transformer has a down side. They require more batteries than comparably specced systems in order to start up. So they start out twice the price of other systems and then the money starts to really get out of hand! Just my experience. Your mileage may vary.

Meh... Max AC output of 5.5kw... Great until you're running your washing machine (1.?kw), tumble drier (~3kw) and someone puts on the kettle. -
Goodwe 5048ES not restarting after backup output trips
PaulinNorthcliff replied to Solisimo's topic in Inverters
My initial problem... and it pertained for the entire period I used the Goodwe... was that it solemnly refused to talk to my router (and NOBODY was able to offer assistance to make this right - in fact, my last comms with David Havenga was that he couldn't help me if he couldn't use SEMS). I never used PV Master, preferring the EZManage app but they were almost identical.
