Boy, I'm haunted with the notion that we've seen this before.. years ago. I want to say it was a simple fix. might have been something to do with NiCad batteries. Maybe low battery voltage and high start currents. I just don't remember.. maybe I wasn't here then.dbDan BrownFoxfire Energy Corp.Renew
Turning on other loads around the shop seems to work here. But we need
to have over 100 watts on (we are using lights) to prevent the
problem. It's a PITA, as it crashes the satellite internet, which
takes 20-60 minutes to boot back up.

All,
It is very likely that the something gone very wrong was a wiring mistake by
the installing contractor. Many installers are clueless about the danger and
consequences of getting the polarity wrong in strings or combiner box
circuits. It is very likely that the contractor mixed up their com
We've seen this type of problem twice with well pumps. Both times, the
problem was with a short in the load side close to the pump. One was
occasional, the other constant. Interestingly, running a large generator
seemed to "fix" the situation to the customer. In both cases, we found the
short, repa
Hi Mac;
We are having a similar problem at our metal shop with two stacked
SW4024s. They are stacked so that inverter #2 idles until something
240V is turned on -- well pump and welder are the only 240 VAC loads.
We are getting an overcurrent error and shutdown by just turning the
welder's power s
Perfect example of why it¹s a good idea to start designing and deploying
systems now that meet the fuse servicing requirements found in NEC 2011even
if these are not required by your AHJ yet.
People on this list are probably ahead of that curve. If not, you might want

Lightening? maybe a bad sensor on the SW. Mice? You might be able to Meg the Xformer. (Be careful). might be a bad contact. good luckDan BrownFoxfire Energy Corp.Renewable Energy Systems(802)-483-2564www.Foxfire-Energy.comNABCEP #092907-44

Hello wrenches,
I have a customer that I have been working with over the phone. He has a
SW 4024, with a T240 transformer feeding a 2 HP well pump on a timer. The
system has worked well for years, but recently, he has been getting
overcurrent errors when the well pump starts. It's not every ti
Most solar array string wiring is in the #10 range and NEC Table 250.122

the combiner boxes. However, 250.120( C) states "equipment grounding
