1. The Xantrex system allows for bypass of the inverters only with external
devices and they do not allow choosing between inverter, utility *or*
generator.
2. The diagram on page 2-36 shows nine 2
Hi Allan,
I have several part reels of 4 twisted pair Belden that I use for e meters.
It is shielded, static line, direct burial and all the good stuff.
Always best run alone to keep the signal from getting scrambled but it you
usually run it together, so be it..
Let me know,
Bob
William,
I haven't used the XW system yet, so take this advice with that caution:
Talk with Robin at Midnite, 425 374-9060. He has developed his own power
distribution panel for use with the XW. It may have features that you need.

Hello Matt,
Both hands up here too. One in the factory and one in the field. I require
technicians to use the UL 1703 standard dc test potential of 2 times maximum
system voltage plus 1,000 volts (or 3,000 vdc). Be safe. Wear your gloves.

Hello, Wrenchers and special greetings to the silicon gurus to whom I
address these questions about solid state relays.
A client wants a gizmo to connect grid AC In to their inverter/charger
when the battery voltage is low...resembling the LBX function on the good
ol' Trace SW inverter. The grid
Hey Mick,
We used a lot of SSRs in wind turbine controls. Found them to be
extremely reliable. Overrating the device is a very good idea. Also
be careful of very low temperatures, as the Current Transfer Ratio
(CTR) of the optical isolation can degrade over time and eventually
cause failure
The main issue that I understand with concentrated PV, is that it works
much better in the desert. Any moisture in the air diffuses the
sunlight so it comes in at random angles. I think the insolation tables
for a location give numbers for concentrated solar.

We've used Optoblocks (SSR's) for years in traffic signal work, very
reliable.

I guess my question is more along the lines of is it feasible, what are the
costs if it is, what is the predicted lifespan and does it represent any
kind of legitimate breakthrough in terms of cost? (especially for the first
link, ZenithSolar)

Hi William, Brian
There was a change made to the XW Distribution Panel to accommodate nine
2-pole breakers for 3 inverter installations, as the original version
was with 8 slots only. Unfortunately the original 8 breaker capacity
version is still working its way through the inventory in the
10 matches
