  1. @flamegrilled are you city of Cape Town
  2. can't you buy a Volta old generation
  3. As @TaliaB mentioned, he uses an 'isolator", a circuit breaker will create an arc when opened/closed under load, so have to us a Nork breaker or an actual isolator
  4. Having great results from the bi-facial panels in my installations, not scientifically measured, but overall, seems to produce more than normal panels
  5. I have never set up voltage mode for any of my clients, always lithium bms, but some of them still get the F56 low voltage trip ( without grid ), when they go over the discharge limits set up on the inverter or if it is a one battery set up
  6. approximately 3 years old, replaced with a larger inverter- comes with wifi dongle Located Northern suburbs Cape Town

  8. @Virwat , remember, these are the push connectors, there is a major supply issue out there
  9. Unfortunately, if you are not in Jo'brg, the Sunsynk has to be shipped to to them, creates a lot longer wait time for repairs
  10. A Victron has a built in automatic neutral to earth relay which activates in the ups mode, so you should have any stray voltage
  11. you would be ok with 5 per string also
  12. Sunsynk 8 kW should be rated at 22A per string, 450V max, so five in series on a string will be fine
  13.    Marcodp reacted to a post in a topic: Eskom Solar Registration
  14. @Garthox Do you have the push connectors ?
  15. @Calli , the warranty would would be held by Voltex, or actually Sunsynk South Africa. Since Herholdts parted ways with Sunsynk, they are referring you to contact Sunsynk for any assistance. Not sure how long the special is good for, when i bought mine, they had 38 left in stock, which was about two weeks ago.
  16. @Marcodp , I am an installer in Cape Town, I can assist you and also put you in touch with an engineer who can do the Eskom registration, please message me or call me on 079-289-7355.
