Luxpower hybrid need help

Featured Replies

Please help. They installed our Luxpower inverter but the electrician does not know this brand. Now problem is that the inverter runs only from the battery, once battery is depleted, it charges it from eskom until 100 % and when charged it uses again the battery. It does nog switch over to only eskom once power is on to use inverter as the reserve. How can we fix it

My advice will be to read the manual. Inverters have so many settings one must ensure all is set as required. There is no way a sparky who does not know the inverter will get it right without looking in the manual.

Pop me a DM if you need help Natalie, I had the same issue and went through and watched the LuxPower training material on YouTube to slowly learn everything :) Basically you need to do what I did in my post above and set the AC Charge time correctly. 

I can assist.

Please Assist!

I Installed a Luxpower SNA 5000 Hybrid and is very happy. When my system is running and the sun is shining the switch over is very fast when there is load shedding. The problem is when cloudy or at night and there is load shedding then the switch about  2 to 3 seconds. Everything switches off and on again! Please help?
