Its a short cable that comes with pylontech in the box (link port1 from master to link port 0 on secondary and so on) Please give more information as to what type of an inverter (make,model,etc) you have

Voltronic 5kva parameter 2
For 2 x 2.4 it should have been 50A (25A for each 2.4) Now that you've added 3.5 Must be 80A (37A for each 3.5) Not 90A

Kodak King 5kva plus Pylontech 2.4*2 batteries
Max panels = 4000w + 10% , but I connected 12 x 325w canadian solar (2s6p) Wouldn't know coz I use Pi with ICC to monitor Charge current should be 25amps per us2000, so yours should be 50amps no more (FYI if you add another one must be 70amps closest value below) Bulk: 52.5V Float: 51.8V Back to grid voltage: 48V (this is where you need to play around and figure out what works best for you - and ensure that you stay above 20% SOC. Low cutoff voltage (when your system shuts down): 46V

Just choose 1
FYI Problem with this is it might void the warranty on the battery,stand to be corrected on discharge but min +-20% discharge needed daily to show usage (on Pylontech)

Axpert advice...again
Yes and I run one as well
-
Just choose 1
Welcome I can only comment on batteries for I installed Victron and Axpert. Yes they should give about 5.6hours at a DOD of 80%

Borehole tripping Geyser earth leakage
👍

Borehole tripping Geyser earth leakage
Trips earthleakage on non-essentials side not essentials/inverter side

Borehole tripping Geyser earth leakage
@plonkster thank you but why does it not trip at all on municipal feed? Makes no sense Replaced the float switch in the tank also thought the old one might be leaking or something
-
Borehole tripping Geyser earth leakage
funny enough i tried that holding the pipe waiting for a shock or something
-
Borehole tripping Geyser earth leakage
Extra info I have 3 geysers on my porperty 2x earthleakage trips 1x doesn't
-
Borehole tripping Geyser earth leakage
Manually done close municipal supply and open borehole FYI borehole and booster on its own inverter
-
Borehole tripping Geyser earth leakage
Sort of the supply is plastic and the house copper/galvinised
-
Borehole tripping Geyser earth leakage
Hi, Long shot but does anyone know why is it that when I change my water supply over to borehole,the earth leakage trips? I put the geyser breaker down and everything works fine. (my geyser doesn't like borehole water 😢) On municipal supply everything works fine no issues.

How to run a 2Kw geyser from PV daytime and Utility in the evening
I believe anything is possible if you put your mind to it. If you have a Pi running ICC you can definitely do it. Mannie has developed an app called APM which gets values from ICC see below, so you wire the geyser with 1 x 2CH sonoff swicth with 2 x relays 30amp (1 to grid AC and the other to inverter AC) and do the automation on APM. Done.

Simple UPS for mostly fridge, lead acid or lithium?
FYI Whatever inverter you choose needs to be pure sine wave NOT modified sine wave (as far as I know to run fridge/freezer)

Anyone order from wholesale solar before
Most likely a scam coz domain was registered only on creationdate : 2020/07/03 21:22:32 Normally if it sounds/looks too good to be true it usually is STAY AWAY!!

Mounting of inverter
Agreed Agreed but What if table top was granite/cement or steel with vents? The reason for the question is that I have 42u with one MP II and want to add another but vertically a space coz of Pylontechs below. However I have a shelve that i can mount on that is horizontal, cabinet has fans as well, so circulation is not a problem

Mounting of inverter
Hi, I've only ever seen inverters mounted Vertically. Can an inverter be mounted or left horizontally on a shelve or table top? If no please elaborate
