DISASTER! 😩 Installing a home battery the WRONG way up?!
Battery storage systems can take up a lot of space, so creating a plan beforehand can save lots of time and money! However, when your planned design isn't even possible, despite being told it would work, a complete disaster can be on the table. What looked like a pretty straight forward Zappi EV charger and battery installation may have Jordan & Lee working until all hours! 😬

I’ve installed a lot of sungrow hybrids with dc coupled HV modular batteries. Battery comes in 3.2kwh modules. Minimum system size is 9.6kwh all the way up to 25.6kwh. Install is a one man job because the battery modules are so light. If a battery module becomes faulty, we can warranty that module while the battery system continues to operate at a slightly lower capacity. Commissioning is super easy too. Simplest I’ve ever done. Very good app too. Very good price point too and much better than Solax in my opinion. I’m in Australia though so not sure if they’re available in the uk. 9.6kwh model number: SBR097 5kva hybrid inverter: SH5.ORS

I've notice a lot of you electricians and plumbers knock in the plugs flush to the surface.... I would like to point out that you should get a long enough screw and knock the plug into the actual wall past the plaster thickness. The plaster has next to no strength. I have had to take off and refix so many radiators because they have dropped off the wall..... What next going round refixing battery packs that have fell off the wall.

The advantage of having cables and connectors separately is that if the supplied cables aren't long enough, you can supply your own. There's nothing in this video about configuration of the Zappi for the battery to prevent the charger draining the battery. Is that an oversight or is that covered elsewhere?

Even before you mounted the inverter, I was wondering if the washing machine was going to be an issue. The house owner is not going to be happy when the washer needs to be worked on or repaired. Is the proximity of the washer discharge hose to the third battery a danger? Some people like to stack a tumble drier above the washer, this would now not be possible. Early in the video, you used the quote, measure twice, cut once, surely this also apples to planning and layout (portrait/landscape, headroom, access, maintainability, future proofing. I hope you keep a “lessons learned” spreadsheet so these issues are not repeated because at the end of the day, it is the customer who will have to live with the system you leave them with.

Great showing of an electrical company as always... highs ,lows, as an electrician .. you show to others .. what we do in the industry.. But never like the bashing of other electricians on the channel ,which happens quite abit When Jordan shows how rough, he marked out a simple line ....and hes supposed to be the boss ,so starts from the top..!!! a straight edge ,tape measure,pencil.. job done !!! You made it look extremely hard ..when its simple Then the no protection(dust sheets) for the tiled floor ,and expensive equipment Grinding on the tiles .that hurt us all to see !!!. thats 101 even for an apprentice to complete ,before start of job .. didnt see any floor protection for any areas inside .. carpets etcs hot bits of bricks,hot plastics etc ..going on ,i presume nice carpets Would like to see a video ,when 2nd battery is installed underneath the first one, just how the washing machine will slide out ,if all batterys,are the same size .... and to see how easy its going to be for them to do the washing .. im sure after the first load ,they will be swearing !!!! As youve just shown us , we are all human .. and sometimes preach .. what you dont do yourself ... What i see ,is a good company ,good employees,who takes pride in there work ...but you make mistakes ,or slack on things at times ..like any good electrical company in the country ,from what ive seen in quite a few videos now Maybe ask your sponsors, to give you floor protection,at the very least ..

Excellent Video. I have just accepted a quote for Solar (Trina Panels) with Solax inverter and battery for my home (not a big house no not a 4Kwh system from EGG. Had heard some mixed things about Solax over SolarEdge (who need optimisers on each panel costing £3000 more) and that its best to keep to one EcoSystems (hence why they quoted with all Solax. Another Company Quoted with Givenergy Inverter and Batteries but not seen much about them, but they wanted more ££ for it. The system I have been quoted for is 2.6kwh over a 4, as my usage estimation is around 2200kwh a year. So 4Kwh is overkill.

Cable from the AC isolator looks undersized? I'm sure the 5kw inverter comes with 10mm brown ferrules? What size RCBO did you use. Also you've no side plates installed on the Master battery and you're governed by a certain length on the slave battery DC cables connections so I don't think they're going to reach looking at your installation layout. Definitely check the firmware on commissioning as well. Most need updating.

Surprised to see MC4 connectors for high current connections, also the battery conductors look a tad on the small side...what's the rated output of the battery/inverter system ?
@Umski
@Umski Жыл бұрын
Agree those battery wires look suspiciously thin - as you say MC4 are usually high voltage with low-medium current - I was supplied 6AWG for my Solis AC inverter and the Pylontech batteries are supplied with 4AWG which are both roughly around 13-20mm2 and good for around 100A even though the inverter only takes 3kW or 60A max in either direction but it's a 48V battery - I think the Solax uses a higher voltage on the DC side hence allowing for thinner cables more akin to a lower voltage PV string...which kind of makes sense as ideally the DC voltage would be close to the peak to peak of the AC output of around 350-400V as it is for the MPPT side of a string inverter...
@AndyM...
@AndyM... Жыл бұрын
@@Umski Just did a bit more research on the batteries, they look like nominal 100V output, so I guess double the output/half the cable size to a normal 48V system, still not sold on the MC4s and cable sizes, but hopefully they've done all the testing.....

i hate those "hidden" mounting brackets. yeah it looks nice once its there, but if they just made two (adjustable for level) holes/hangers left and right, you mark+make the holes with the hopefully included paper drilling template in the packaging, put the hooks in and be done. same for the small ethernet switches (netgear, tplink, dlink...) . if they just put the holes on the sides (or through hole, there is plenty space in the case!) it would be a tiny bit larger, but you could just screw them directly onto the board / wall and they are fixed. no, you need to drill holes for hidden screws in the back, and fumble around till the screws are in the holes and kinda clamp a bit but not too much, no way to adjust for level. and the next nucklehead throws the thing off the wall when pluggin in cables (because its not fixed, just hooked) and doesn't get it back on properly.

Interesting. I'm just about to have two 5.8kWh Solax batteries and the same AC charger with built-in EPS fitted. I already have two 5kW Solis string inverters, a Zappi and Eddi fitted.

Why an inverter based system? Surely a Puredrive AC battery would just fit on the wall and your done. Am I missing something?

The marketing team have done well there calling it an AC battery - the white box still has an AC inverter and DC cells inside it 🤣

@@Umski My bad. I should have said AC coupled. All batteries are of course DC but what I really meant to say was why have an external inverter when you can have a neater solution that is just a narrow box on the wall.

@@wajopek2679 sorry, fair point, I think if the customer wants a 'fit and forget' solution it makes sense but a lot of 'all in ones' are not quite so modular as they cater for a standard capacity e.g. 5/10/15kWh etc or aren't so flexible compared to having a standalone inverter and separate batteries to configure depending on circumstances - being modular it also means if one part (or pack) fails then it can be replaced more easily without the whole thing having to be pulled apart or replaced. That said the Solax uses HV DC packs so although modular you're stuck with that brand...

They don’t provide them pre terminated because you should have a DC fuse in circuit really, so you’d put lugs on and split the cable to have the DC fuse in to ensure the battery is fused from the inverter.

Not necessary if the battery has a built in breaker - which this one does.

@@blower1 not always true. Often these breakers are for single batteries whereas on systems you can chain you’d want the whole circuit to have a 120amp breaker for example. The capacitors also mean you can turn the breakers off and still get a shock (see the manual) Surprising Jordan didn’t spot it, it’s in the solax manual. > There should be a nonpolarized DC breaker to make sure battery can be securely disconnected with inverter when required.

@@gsdevme Breakers are designed to protect the cabling and battery from shorts - if every battery has a breaker you don't need an external one....what you are talking about is an isolator - which may or may not be needed depending if it is recommended by the manufacturer. In this case it may be needed - i've not read the solax manual.
