[RE-wrenches] Sunny Island Autotransformer
Dear wrenches, I will be installing a single Sunny Island 5048 for a battery backup system that will utilize a Sunny Boy 5000US as well as 240 volt loads. I know that Outback makes a 4 and 6kv autotransformer and there are units rated as much as 8kv from other companies. Being a 5000 watt inverter I think the 6kv from outback would work but SMA is telling me to go with the highest rated unit I can find. The price difference between the different autotransformers is substantial and I don't want to buy more than I need. It would be great to hear from anyone who has installed a single Sunny Island 5048 and what autotransformer they used. Thanks in advanced.

Look at the Acme T-3-53044-S. I used this in my last system. -Glenn Burt From: re-wrenches-boun...@lists.re-wrenches.org [mailto:re-wrenches-boun...@lists.re-wrenches.org] On Behalf Of Aaron Mandelkorn Sent: Friday, April 13, 2012 6:41 PM To: RE-wrenches Subject: [RE-wrenches] Sunny Island Autotransformer Dear wrenches, I will be installing a single Sunny Island 5048 for a battery backup system that will utilize a Sunny Boy 5000US as well as 240 volt loads.
