Help Needed - 2 x Deye 8kw Inverters in Parallel
Hi Greenfields, you are correct. The activations of the Solar Sell buttons add the selling option to the workflow. Thanks

Help Needed - 2 x Deye 8kw Inverters in Parallel
Hi, thanks, I see your point. I've found that the description of foreign-developed UI's can sometimes be somewhat misleading. However, if one interprets the description in the manual, it explains that the 'Solar sell' option is not only relevant to the grid export function, but also necessary for the 'Zero export to load' and 'Zero export to CT'. It influences the flow logic (in combination with other settings). It should be active in both options. See the dependencies between the different workflow options in the clip below:

Keep the 'Solar sell' option selected

Check the wiring of the CT. It may have been swapped. You can rearrange it and see if the feedback to the grid stops.

The 'low battery' and 'restart' values will trigger a continuous alarm signal. Change the value of the restart upwards.

I would reconsider the percentages in the different time slots and activate grid charge options. If the battery DOD reaches 80% by 17:00, the Inverter will automatically switch to Grid power untill 05:00. But you'll know best what your requirements are. The inverter will always prioritize using PV to charge the batteries.

It would have been very helpful if one could have access to the complete installation layout instead of addressing it piecemeal. I would recommend changing a couple of settings: Tick ' Zero export to CT'. This allows the hybrid function of the inverter to power the 'Non-essentials' as well. compared to your current setting of 'Zero export to load'

Hi Tokkie, it is suspicious and really too good to be true. Don't fall for it

This is the logger module. Unplug the white multi-pin plug from the board. If the LCD comes to life, the board is US. It is normally the C9 resistor that goes. The replacement board is about R250.00 from Deye service centre. I just replaced a couple.

Check battery %. You've instructed that it would use the battery only in slots 2 and 3, and then only to 70% DOD. For the rest, it should stay at 100%.

Question About Legality of CoC Sign-Off Process
This seems to be standard practice, not only for electricians, but for all trades. The same argument applies to building inspectors, plumbers, civil engineers, assessors, etc. A proper inspection of installations on most sites by a duly qualified and ethical person normally results in a rework and sour relations

A WORD TO THE WISE
... and therein lies the crux of the matter. You can contract the best PM, Master builder, or electrician, trusting and checking their abilities and experience .... at your own peril.
