dge inverter to match with the existing
optimizers. They will not work with Sol-Ark and vice versa.

I understand this. Whereas I can set absorb times and charged return ampsnfor an FM80, my SolArk appears to give generic times based on size of battery bank. Maybe it's a minimal issue but fact that Rolls has identified a concern is noteworthy to me.Thanks.Howard "Scot" AreyOwner, Solar
Wow, are we in the golden age of inverter/chargers? If it had 200-a.p pass thru it would be near perfect.Begs the question: are stand alone charge controllers becoming a historical artifact?Howard "Scot" AreyOwner, Solar CenTex254-300-1228

Just attended the NABCEP conference last week and took in CEU classes from
Rolls and Midnite on battery charging and design. Just awesome classes and I
walked away thinking the FLA were kind of like my old 7.3 Powerstroke

Hate to ask but are these long lead like SMA and Fronius have become? If
shortage, is this some sign that charge controllers are being overtaken by
hybrid inverters with integrated chargers (like Sol-Ark?).

I have found many of the utilities, especially the cooperatives will undersize transformers relative to main service capacity.Wel always try to check and very infrequently is the transformer smaller than proposed system design.We have had to upgrade some transformers. Tough pill but hard to
I agree that the time to process warranty the module to a manufacturer's
desires is cost-prohibitive. Of all the component's we use, this warranty
almost seems the least valuable for this very reason. We stopped one case

I agree. I also had a Bolt battery recall and we joked that GM probably got
better priority than Solar CenTex for limited battery stock.
Glad you added that important context.

That's interesting if it is the max CT input current. The 15kw comes with the 320amp cts so if I use two 150-amp cts in parallel seems I stay below that current.Howard "Scot" AreyOwner, Solar CenTex254-300-1228

I think you're overstating this a bit. The generator integration feature wasn't the make or break selling point. It was simply a response to customer question of whether this would be possible. Of course the answer was that SE said a solution was forthcoming.I hardly believe that is some

Wrenches,
This more of a public service announcement. Many of us have installed Energy
Hub inverters with Backup Interface Units (BIU). Based on SolarEdge
marketing materiel, we have told customers that generator integration was on
the way.
Well, 4th quarter 2021 came and went and still no
We installed one early on. Love the concept – kind of like the SMA “Secure
Power Supply” on steroids.
But there was some confusion on exactly what I needed, specifically as it
relates to the load controllers. The intent of the load controllers was to
switch off heavy loads during early morning

Good morning, Wrenches.
We all discuss the NEC when it comes to ESS but the section in International
Residential Code (IRC) R328 is something to look at carefully.
Easy to miss is the requirement to extend fire alarm systems to garage
spaces where we quite often install the ESS.
