Here's an update of the Grid Tie Inverter on how to do a smart cooling. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYPPmH-KjNSShMk

[@shoomaklovesemmy]

is it ok to connect your AC output on AC outlet instead on the AC main breaker?

[@RollyPetz]

@@shoomaklovesemmy Yes Sir, as long as the wall outlet has the correct cable sizing Sir.

[@healthyeatingtips6736]

Thank you. I appreciate the information.

[@RollyPetz]

No problem! Stay safe.

[@iamdeji]

These inverters overheat if you max the output. Use maximum 40% of the capacity and it may last longer. I have two 1400w gridtie inverters but i connect only 400 watts (max) of solar to each gridtie. it doesn't get hot and the fan doesn't kick in. During one of my test, i noticed the fan kicks in when it is producing around 500 watts on the AC side which is maybe 625 watts on the DC side.

[@RollyPetz]

@iamdeji thanks a lot for this Sir. Hopefully this inverter would last.

[@benkanobe7500]

Thank You. Very simple and easy to understand. I assume you went with 1100 watts of panels as they are never 100% of rating and so still safe for your 1000Watt inveter. Very nice system!

[@RollyPetz]

Yes Sir, that's correct. There is still an efficiency factor with the current technology. Thanks for your comment Sir.

[@lyviendodales3159]

[@RollyPetz]

Sir good pm. Actually 1 year kapin lang ang lifespan sa kani na klase sa inverter. This is the second one. Kung maguba pa ni siya mag ilis ko ug lain na brand Sir.

[@josemarirobledo5613]

tumatagal pala ng 3years plus yan ganyan inverter, thank you for the information

[@RollyPetz]

Actually Sir, yung ganitong klase na inverter is less than 2 year lang talaga ang lifespan niya.

​@@RollyPetztumatagal Yan Yung sakin more than 3 years na 1.4kw version. 1kw+ output daily.. need mo Lang icool Yung loob butasan Yun cover lagyan Ng malakas na inlet at exhaust fan.. palitan narin Yung malalaking capacitor malamang mababa na value kung walang cooling fan Yun dahilan kung bakit nasisira Yan......

[@zuutube875]

Good morning, what is the open circuit voltage for your panels? I'm trying to get my head around to do it myself

[@RollyPetz]

Good afternoon Sir, open circuit volatage is 32 V DC sir.

[@dumbuyaelbowmusa4104]

thank you, can this type of inverter use in your home only for day time in an area where there is no utility supplies to plug in into the grid?

[@RollyPetz]

Hi Sir, if there is no utility provider in the area, I suggest to setup and off-grid system with battery. This could not be used. thanks.

[@user-vm3mj1iw8m]

Hello, i have off grid solar system with lifepo4 batteries that work 24/7. my question is, can i add grid tie inverter 1000w? they reason i want to add it, is to safe battery capacity to have more power at night. so when my off grid solar system is on, and if i add on the plug the grid tie inverter it will work? or i will do damage to my off grid inverter ? thank you very much

[@RollyPetz]

Hi Sir I'm not an expert on this but do you have diagrm to illustrate?

[@veronepetiluna1280]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@RollyPetz]

Thanks my Pangga...

[@ElyBog1]

I'm planning to make 2k~3k grid tie system, and I'm think using 2~3 of this cheap inverters to save money, is my plan safe and worth it?

[@RollyPetz]

Hi Ely, for me I wouldn't recommend using this type of inverters as they died after a year and harvest using this one is not good. I suggest to use a much better inverter for your setup. Thanks.

[@mikewooncl]

how do you add batteries to this system?

[@RollyPetz]

Good day sir. For this type of setup you can't add batteries, but if making it to a hybrid setup yes you can but you have to add a charge controller parallel to this and then add the batteries. a somewhat complicated one but can be done.

[@larrygoebel1506]

do you need approval from the electrical utility company to use a grid-tie inverter

[@RollyPetz]

Good evening Sir Larry. Actually no need Sir in our area, but if this was build for net-metering then that would need an approval for our local coop.

[@donaldmanuel-ei6ye]

What is the size of your PV Cable sir? is that 10mm or 16mm

[@RollyPetz]

16mm Sir.

[@alm77ar]

So, this has a zero export feature?

[@RollyPetz]

Good day Sir, what do you mean by zero export? As of now it does not export power to the grid since the load inside the house is quite high.

[@RollyPetz]

Good evening Sir. This does not have this feature. Thanks.

Sir magandang gabi jan,anong mga appliances kaya paganahin n'yan sir?,kaya bah 1hp aircon or 0.5 hp aircon sir?.thank po.waiting for ur reply.

[@RollyPetz]

@Aneth Emia depende na sa load sa balay ug ang imong setup. Kung ang imong setup is mas dako ma produce na power kay sa imong load sa balay, kinahanalan ka ug limitter pero kung dili ra ka sobra ang ma produce sa imong solar, dili ra needed ang limitter. Ang limitter man gud gi tuyo ma siya aron dili ka mag back feed sa veco where in mo accumulate gihapon ang imong reading sa meter kay uni directional na ang mga meter karon sa Veco.

[@solar24gr]

Unfortunately this inverters will burn about 3 or 4 months maybe 6 months! Over heating problem! To avoid danage you must modified cooling fanction!This inverters start cooling by fans over +60-70 celsius! That inverters need install thermostat switch N.O. 40 celius stick on transformer+ dc-dc stepdown board 40V connected to fans,fans will start cooling from 40 celsius and you will avoid the overheating damage.I am technitian.

[@RollyPetz]

Good day Sir Jim, I was already expecting that as it happened to my previous inverter. But with this experiment, hopefully this will last longer. For this setup it was able to maintain the temperature at 40-41 degrees. Here's the link Sir and thanks for your comment and feedback. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYPPmH-KjNSShMk
