Hello. Kindly enlighten me on how one can know the yield from his panels

You should see it from your cc if you're using one.
That's mine last weekend 938.1w

Many thanks, I need to be more observant

K. Actually have a 60A zinox mppt.
U mean it sud be 2x31v in series and parallel the 3 sets.
Correct?
What's ur panel specifications? Voc and Vmp? Imp and Isc? What's ur mppt max pv input and volt?

@6x300w
Parallel connection will give me
31v 48amps.
2s3p will give me
62v 24amps
3s2p will give
93v 16amps

Am a newbie, please which option is more favorable.
Pardon any error u might notice. Thanks bosses.

A 3s2p would be ur best choice. If u jad 8 panels, 4s2p would be fine seeing ur max pv voltage is 145. This wud even mean u use smaller wire guage from panel due to the lower current.

I am not doubting you. I just like to ensure my inverter's continuous load isnt more than 30 to 40%. With his load of over 1800watts, thats 50% continuous load not including if any appliance has a surge rating

Surges are overrated, The Inverter itself has a 2X Surge minimum.

Goodmorning everyone

Please is the sms summate inverter a strong and reliable brand
Iā€™m planning to purchase the 6.2kva hybrid inverter (MPPT 120A)

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Ayomipoe(m): 11:20am On Mar 16
I had an issue with mine the very day it was purchased. 12V 1KVA Hybrid.
The BMS on my battery was bad, and I think it affected the inverter. Error 09, some MOSFETs had blown.
I later took it to their office in Alaba and the Chinese guy fixed it in about 2 hours and apologized.

The most important thing was that there was support and the warranty covered issues as they occur.

1million percent correct.
Fact from day 1.

Powmr old version is fantastic but display is inaccurate. What u see is not what you get.
10amp on display is roughly 7amp real life.
Probably the 60a is 40a real. grin grin
But I will go for it a million time over.
Super effective!!!

No idea o. I was not the one who assembled the battery. It was just refusing to charge.
Anyway, I took the battery back to my plug and he just changed the BMS and the battery was fine.

Is it a good brand ā€¦ how long have you been using yours
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by manya(m): 2:06pm On Mar 16
Good afternoon house. Please I recently bought 1.5HP Air condition. Due to persistent power failure I decided to use solar to be powering it. (My lights, laptops and standing fan are on solar already)
Please help me give a description of item with their ratings that will power just the AC. Batteries, panels, inverters and cables.
Thank you.

For Sale

šŸ‘‰ DC Multi-function Digital Meter - 200A with inbuilt shunt
It can be used to measure Dc input and output current, Volt, Watt and Watt hour of battery and Solar panels

It can also be used to check if the advertised Ah and Wh of a newly purchased battery is what you actually get.so that you won't get ripped off
Confirm by yourself if what you buy is not 100ah Battery labelled as 200ah

And you can also use it to measure the amount of Ah and Wh that is left in your used battery.

Price - 25k only


Call or WhatsApp- 08035537864 if you are interested in it

Thank you.

Just AC.. we are talking about 1.2KW continuous power here.

So you need to be able to generate at least 1.2X of the Energy.

Let's use 10 hours as an assumption, that is 12KWH of energy, to generate this you need a Solar Panel (1.2 X 12) 14.4KWH..

A 3000W solar Panel will do 14.4KWH on average.

Batteries 5KWH 24V, if you only use AC in the afternoon, where batteries only back up for cloud covers.
14.4KWH 48V batteries if you want to use AC at night only.

Hybrid Inverter 3KW 24V/48V

Solar DC Cable 6MM.

The bolded words are relative.

Don't overload your inverter more than 70% - 80% max, install AC & DC MCBs, AC & DC SPDs, earth the inverter at least even though you don't earth the panels and don't abuse the inverter surge and you will see your inverter last longer than expected.

I'm happy you used the word "manny" and not all.
I build my solar generators with quality/real capacity Eve 12v 50ah cells with 2 years warranty. I tested them with my house appliances before selling to my customers.

I was actually referring to these imported ready made ones but not the assembled ones in Nigeria sir

No, he is trying to cut down the cost hence the suggestion. Pure sine wave is expensive but I have seen a guy on this same nairaland advertising modified one at 65k

Honestly I think you should also Google this or at least post on well-trafficked solar DIY forums. Much of the information here lately is not rooted in any science, just conjecture. No offense.

Anyone has a small used inverter for sale.
1.5kw to 2.5kw, maybe an old design, non hybrid, I don't mind.
I actually need two
1kw to 1.5kw 12V
And 1.9kw to 2.5kw 24V

Boss just buy 2.5kva first

Later if you see money buy another 3.5 or 5kva

Cos once you taste solar, it's a matter of time before more loads start "inviting you"... You will be regretting why you bought 1.5kva when you could have added small money for higher capacity.

And with electronics, the newer, the better, the more efficient. So pls don't go for old design
