January 31, 20233 yr Hi all, Just starting out on this journey so have some catching up to do. At this stage looking at a Sunsynk 5kw unit and battery, with solar later. To start with, I hope to get some guidance on the following: - I have three phase supply but plan to hook up just one phase to the inverter. From what I have read, this would be OK – let me know if I’ve missed anything. - Are there any regulations regarding placement of the battery and inverter- either directly or indirectly? I see nothing in the gas installations regulation. There is an AS/NZ standard – any ideas on where SANS stands on this? - The distance from Inverter to DB board will be about 15meters (5V drop at 40A and 6mm2 cable). Apart from the CT cable, anything to worry about? Will I need additional breakers? - Regarding adding a battery later, is it just a matter of adding a new one or would I have to throw out the old one and install two new ones (same make / capacity / age)? - I notice that some of the inverter manufacturers also have batteries. Are there any pros & cons when it comes to matching vs mixing brands? That's it for now, thanks.
