Hi, we had a hybrid system installed a couple of weeks ago by an installer. Sunsynk 5kva inverter and I am trying to find out more about how set up the inverter to push excess PV power to the DB board (during the day) to power the geyser for instance. 

Is there a setting on the inverter or is it an electricians expertise required? 

The installer wasn't to knowledgeable about this inverter unfortunately and trying to get him back, usual story. 

Thanks to this forum I have been able to find out alot to set up the inverter for its maximum use. 

Thanks in advance for any advice. CR

Hi

I see that you have not yet received any feedback regarding this question. 

Yes. The inverter can push back excess pv to loads before the inverter. 

On the system mode screen you should tick zero export and remove the tick in limit to load. This will allow the inverter to send any excess solar to loads before the inverter. On my phone now but you can find time this further to even allow to to run these loads from battery if you wanted to.

This is a screenshot of my system mode, geyser, all washing appliances on non essential db, powers first from solar and then battery/grid depending on you time of use or total load

Thank you both for the information and I think I have set up correct now. 

Much appreciated.
