1.5hp is 1,200W not 2,000W. Surge is 2-3x or 2.4-3.6KW. So your inverter must be able to handle at least 4KW just for the pump to start. Your solar production at peak sun must be at least 1.5KWh or your battery must have at least 4KWh available if you are running it for 3 hours.

Unless you have a very deep borehole or a very high tank stand, like recommended best to go for a 1HP submersible pump if you want to run it with the 3.5kw inverter you mentioned. A 1 hp pump at most needs 2.2KW starting power and 745W running power.

Our 1HP submersible pump consumes 1450w...in theory it's not supposed to be this high....but in reality it does.

Why?

My 1 kobo on the above setup, DO NOT USE IT FOR YOUR AC ooo if that what you wanna settle for.. And if you rili wanna use your AC, close eyes and go for 48v system.. Budget abt 4.5M and above to enjoy your appliances.

Trippledots:
Can the charger do 24v?

no

Why do people like to come and just say anything without any hint of logic or scientific evidence behind their opinions?

Electrical energy and power aren't some complex ideas. With a 1.5kw inverter, you can run your 1 HP inverter AC without issues. I know people who do that with their Haisic inverters even.

Haisic's 1.5kva inverter are rated at about 1250w in reality. Modern 1hp inverter ACs draw 250-450w in their eco mode, what issue could there possibly be?

You said inverter ac.
Probably he speaking of regularly ac.
Inverter ac vs regular ac--- gap is large o.

You even get time.. I drop my 1 kobo advice his speaking English.. Let the op go ahead and run it pls.. At least na his money.. I saw above where someone is also saying 1hp pump na 7something wat. Something in reality takes more than that. Anyways sah, run am for science and come give us feed ..peace be unto us all.. ✌️

So the day way e nor come Dey eco mode uncor! Inverter ac can draw from 700 to 1200 depending on the product.

CuteMaro:
Instead of pairing the below battery at almost 1m with less efficiency, why not go for Mrreed's 8.2kwh 24v at 900k?

Bia, Married, is the price above for real?

Heard Victron inverters are the best out there. What do you think peeps?

No 1hp or even 1.5hp inverter AC is drawing 1200w, be serious.

Yes, if it's a regular AC then you'd be right.

dollarnaira:

Don't care. Going for the 8kva. It's Victron or nothing else obviously.

i beg to differ bro.. u have not even factored the temperature outside before saying this...last month december i witnessed an inverter ac `1.5hp pulling abt 1.3kw....

Please can a 17kwh LFP battery be having voltage sag with a 1.5hp sumo pump? Anytime the pump comes on at night, the inverter trips. Inverter is 15KVA.
Any clues or insight will be appreciated.

eghos12:
First question to charge 8kwh you need to fill up the 4.2kva( max PV is 5000w) inverter. Hence you need 8 pieces of 600+ panels.
Second question. Mono facial panel may be hard to get this period because marketers and producers are majorly making bi facial panels. If your building walls cannot carry weight is when you should be looking for mono facial. Also bafical 600+ are sold from 120-135(founani store ) to confirm price.
Third question yes as long as it is 1hp to 1.5 hp ( I can be corrected though)

Fourth question 8kwh battery+ 4.2kw inverter+ 8pieces of 600+ panel and installation will be above 1.5.

Thank you very much. I really appreciate your response.

Can anyone point me to how I can get aluminum profiles to mount panels. Is it the same aluminium they use for windows?

It shouldn't, but it depend on the state of charge of the battery, OR the brand/quality of your battery. What is the name/brand of your battery and inverter?

In Eco mode?

Check the wire connection..
1..The size use from battery to inverter.
2. The one use from inverter to home load.
3. The voltage the battery is when the 1.5hp pump come on.

Above could be the likely issue

Abeg try dey inform specify if your inverter is Pure Sine Wave or NOT. A lot of people don't know that

they sell them in shops where solar items are sold.

Also, depending on roof type and taste, you could mount solar panel without them.

in fact, if on rented apartment, better not to use those profiles as they are major reason why leaks occur thereBy spoiling chances of others being allowed to mount solar panels on the roof becase LandLord no go gree.

of course that's different if mounting bi-Facial solar panels.

Situation of things don turn everyBody into experts and that includes those wey never really handle plier before. the only wire dem don see fit be those used in wiring their homes

There should be the best, na your money go kill am.

I know it's costly, and I'm ready.

It's Victron inverter 8kva or nothing else.

Won't waste my money on some Felicity shit and co.

Important questions to consider:
1. Why do you want a Victron?
2. Are you sure you want a Victron?
3. Do you know what a Cerbo GX is?
4. Do you know what an MK3 USB is?
5. How much of the Victron Ecosystem do you know about?
6. Are you sure Deye and SRNE cannot give you something similar?
7. If your Victron has issues, do you know where you can repair it?
8. If you find out a repairer, is the repair cost worth it?
9. How easily do other non-Victron components integrate with a Victron?
10. If you can integrate them, is it worth the time and effort?
11. Do you have the skill level to use a Victron (it is NOT plug and play)?

If you can answer the above confidently, then go ahead and buy a Victron 8 KVA - ~4 million, which is WITHOUT a charge controller. A Victron charge controller can buy about 3 high-end charge controllers from other companies, with minimal difference in function or quality.

Your money, your choice though. Enjoy.

At the end na ac of 220/230v e go shoot out.

@ night?
1) What other load is on ?
2) WHAT IS THE DISCHARGE AMP CAPACITY OF THE BATTERY BMS?
Funny that that it's the inverter that is tripping. I will suspect that the BMS. 200amp discharge capacity @48v will be less than 10kw . Any load after, the BMS trips

No need for all these demarketing. You're not talking to a half-wit.

Information abounds on the internet and word of mouth, puts Victron as one of the best inverters, far better than the Chinese brand Deye sef.

Haven't heard about the Cerbo GX and MK3 USB you spoke about sha, but would research it.

And Victron 8kva isn't 4m by the way, even the 10kva is circa 4.5m on Konga (more expensive expectedly).

Spit facts man.
