good day house
please how does it work solar and grid power when both are on which charges the battery at the time? or do I have to be switching when grid (nepa) light comes on

akbahbah:


Please how can I know if my solar panel is actually charging my battery looking at the display page of my charge controller. No sign indicates charging. Just noticing this.

Bros how can I know if my solar panel is charging my battery looking at the charge controller display page. Nothing seems moving here. No arrow indication from panel to battery.

in the picture that is pmw solar charge controlle two things is either the fuse caught or wire has cut inside get a multi meter and test it

Both will charge the system at the same time sir

Hello everyone, I'm in a fix here and I need your inputs.
There's a 192v UPS but power supply is very terrible and I plan to install solar panels but I'm in a fix on what to do of the following options:

(1) Connect the panels and charge controllers to charge the batteries directly ie by connecting the charge controller to the batteries which then supplies power to the UPS for use. And is it advisable for the UPS to simultaneously charge the system anytime there's ac power supply in the form of NEPA or when generator is on during the day? OR
(2) To get an inverter and connect to the charge controller and supply the house; without batteries (all appliances are plugged to the US except lights), don't wanna get another set of batteries because the UPS battery bank is enough to provide all the needed power.


The UPS is 6kva and has 192v back up of 26ah batteries- 16 pieces- (16*12v = 192v) all connected in series.
If recommending to get an inverter, what rating will adequately power the 6kva inverter and charge the batteries?
The proposed solar array is 1000w.
Are there charge controllers capable of delivering 192v to batteries in Nigeria, how much do they cost?

I'll appreciate any replies and if anyone can propose another system configuration it will be given due consideration.

Luminous Inverter battery 200Ah/12v for sale @ 42k. Battery last 4hrs.
call/whatsaapp 08137539988
can be used as back up or to compliment an existing set-up

Both options should work perfectly sir.

Any reliable Solar Panel retailer? loads of sellers on Jiji and Konga, but unsure if they are good enough.

Any solar system installer in Ibadan to do a job around Olodo, Iwo-road.
We have an existing 1.5KVA inverter installed already.

What's the proposed runtime and budget?

Do you have any idea about the cost of a 192v charge controller?

Check aliexpress.com

Yes pls

Who has connected the epever to PC?

I'm sorry sir, I don't really deal with PWM Controllers

hope to try it this week

I'm in urgent need of about 300 pieces of 250W Mono-Crystalline Solar Panels. Merchants who can meet up with this demand quantity should e-mail with their best price as soon as possible, we are looking to make the purchase ASAP so time wasters should please not contact me.

Kindly e-mail: briantrey56@gmail.com

Do you have the RS485 cable? Still expecting d rs485 I ordered

saw one in the client's imported cc. will check store if i have it or i left it at his place

What of price of an MPPT?
I've come to realize the 192v charge controller isn't usable as the batteries are 26ah, meanwhile smallest charging current for that voltage rating I saw is 30a.

140-180

Well depending on the current rating, but for 30Amps it goes for N100K and for higher current ratings, it goes up to N155K for 60Amps

My Solar power setup.
Powered by 4 x 250W Mono panels
A 30A Charge controller
4 x 200Ah Batteries
A 3.5KVA Pure sine wave inverter.

Got all the materials online from KONGA.com, did installation myself and been running for sometime now.
Cant remember the last time i turn on my generator.

That charge controller is too small for your setup as the maximum power it can handle is 780w. You'll be loosing 220w during peak sunlight. You need 40a controller.
Decent setup BTW. Pretty neat.

Nice Remark, that was looked into during the installation, as at now (Rainy cloudy day) there is no way you will harvest the 1000W from the Array.
An upgrade is planned for November when additional 4 x 250W panels will be installed alongside a 60A MPPT Charge controller.

What are those boxes by the trunking? What are the loads you connected or better still what's your average loading in wattage? How did you connect your panels 2*2? Do you have the remote meter for d controller or you plan to do PC monitoring? See my system below.

The boxes are:
1. PV Array Breakers
2. DC Breakers for CC output to batteries
3. AC Isolator (Breakers for load distribution)

For now all Lightning load (LED Bulbs), All Ceiling fans within d house(only turned on when needed), All TVs and Decorders, Home computing, video game, a refrigerator(Timer installed to operate during the day 10am to 3pm) are all connected.
Average loading- Peak bw 750 to 900W
Panels are connected 2-Series, 2-Parallel.
Planned using PC monitoring, but yet to get the RS485 to USB cable (software already installed on my PC).


Nice system you got, but do you really need a CHANGE-OVER SWITCH?
