  1. Thanks
    Colin B reacted to PsyCLown in SVOLT cells, good price per Ah   
    My cells are still sitting in their boxes, waiting for the busbars and clips to arrive. I'd like to try and build an enclosure from MDF and wall mount my batteries once complete.
    Will start with measurements once the busbars and clips arrive, then get the wood cut and start assembling.
     
    I will try take pics and post them. Keen to see what others have done for some more ideas.

    Colin B reacted to Scorp007 in Inverter Neutral Earth bonding   
    The E/N bond is only done at the inverter wires and it can be a relay in a DB. It is essential that this bond is only in place when running from battery. It is thus not a permanent bond.

    Colin B got a reaction from Pumba in Can an RCD be installed before an Inverter?   
    I have my Solar Inverter connected after my Main RCD, and get a lot of nuisance tripping when the grid power drops and comes back, so now I want to install a 63 Amp Breaker Before the Main RCD, and then connect my Solar Inverter before the Main RCD. Hopefully this will resolve my Main RCD nuisance tripping.

    Thanks Tony, 
    I came across this recommendation on the forum, and seems similar to your setup with the Inverter Grid connected before the Main E/L, so I'm going to give this a go. 
    My house is old, and only has a combination OL-EL breaker wich is a 20 mA, so I will replace this with a 60 Amp OL Breaker, and a separate EL. 
    Thanks for your response.
