GeorgeD1: Maybe dem smoke weed wey dey laced with Coronavirus for them to send you that message. Actually, this is a representation of what is to befall these guys sooner or later. By the time municipal electricity use drops such that it's only factories that use the grid, these guys will know the meaning of disappointment. Shebi they are still fleecing and scamming us now, and we are the ones that still beg them to give us light. They have even refused to allocate prepaid to me after almost three years of paying for three units. 1 Like 1 Share |

ojtech8291: Interesting. So considering our unreliable grid power here which may be unavailable for days on end, how do your buyers get to enjoy it and balance the working conditions of solar and grid as specified in its use? How many panels and config will be sufficient to do the job? In the strictest of sense, would you say it's better performance than an inverter AC (energy saving wise of course)? |

Trippledots:Not so good with drawings, please make do with this, connect the live output from your public power supply to the NO wire of relay1 and connect the neutral to the NO of the relay2, connect the live output from your inverter to the NC of relay1 and connect the neutral to NC of relay2, you then connect common terminal of relay1 to the live output going to your load and connect the neutral to the common terminal of relay2. You can connect the wires for the coils for the two relays together so they are powered by a 12v adapter. Connect the adapter to your public power supply so when there is light from public utility, the relays switches to the NO position. 2 Likes 2 Shares

I stumbled on this and traced the history backwards one level for some background but still struggled. Why are you using two relays to switch power to one load please? Without extra information this looks like a job a DPST relay or contactor would easily do. Penuelseun: 2 Likes |

NiyiOmoIyunade: He said he is a DIY enthusiast. He derives joy in doing it from scratch. I would have expected him to buy coil and build a relay and then take it from there. Or better still produce coil then use it to produce a relay. 2 Likes |

Penuelseun, Two independent Relays switching power to a load is very dangerous! The likelihood of both latching the same time is very high. Relays fail all the time, i work where this happens regularly... To mitigate, consider using mechanically interlocked contactors. It's physically impossible for both to energise at the same time. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Barezzi(m): 1:10pm On Jun 21, 2020 |
It means that the total Solar ENERGY generated that day was 53.56kwh to feed house loads and charge the batteries. That same historic day, his panels went berserk and pumped 12kw of power to 4 charge controllers for a few seconds causing them to angrily spit over 220Amps unto the hungry DC bus for the inverters and batteries to snag up! Everyday the house makes unreasonable(reasonable?) load demands. The inverter doesn't care, it simply takes it from the DC BUS. The batteries and charge controllers are unfortunately on the DC BUS. So, one or both of them must feed it. It's a rat race! ![]() tonididdy: 5 Likes |

tonididdy: hello tonididdy, it means my solar panels were able to make 53,560wh of power that fateful day (from morning till evening) and at some point during the day they were producing a combined total 12,219 watts of power... 1 Like 1 Share |
