Ajewealth123: so many people will use this lekki flood to console their poverty stricken life. They be like " living in ajegunle without flood is better than lekki". Why must one waste money to live in such a flood prone area? Trust me it is people like you that are poverty sicken for thinking of living in a high brow area. |

Refa: I am sure the digital displays alone will not suffice to help give you a good explanation. Not knowing your Inverter capacity, type of inverter, whether it has it always been like this or this is a recent occurrence? So many factors can be contributing to this issue; size of cables, fans going bad, location of inverter, even the monitoring devices could be contributing. I am just covering all basis I can think of in this situation, since I don't know anything about the setup.
I have attached an efficiency curve for Xantrex XW4548/6048/4024 just to bring clarity to some of the concerns I have raised.
These inverters are all rated above 92%+ efficient, albeit, you notice that when the load is less than 300W, the efficiency suffers drastically; If a big inverter (3000W+) is used for a small load (300W), the efficiency of inverter is not going to 92%
These inverters are from the same manufacturer (Yes Xantrex, now owned by Schneider), the efficiencies vary differently with respect to varying load. The XW4024 commences an efficiency degradation after 1000W, while the others are still doing very well. [b][/b]ALL INVERTERS ARE NOT MADE EQUAL.
Location of an inverter is also key; All inverters use switching devices and AC inductors of some sort. These devices generate a fair amount of heat hence the need for the cooling fans. An inverter located in a functioning kitchen is not going to out perform one that is located in a place with lots of cool breeze. Likewise an inverter that is located in area granting access to the fans to draw in a lot of dust, so that the electrical components are coated with thick layers of dust inhibiting proper cooling.An inverter like this is not going to out perform one that is carefully placed. Big names SMA, Xantrex, Outback etc use filters at the vents for the fans to filter out air.
Cable sizing; For simplification, lets do some basic math; Resistance R to the flow of Electricity is proportional to the Length L of the wire and inversely proportional to the Cross-sectional Area A
R = K (L)/(A), K is resistivity- material dependent. In order to keep resistance low, an appropriate diameter must be chosen to correspond to the length and current that is flowing through the wire. Else part of the power consumed is lost to heat in the wire. This could also potentially damage the wire-for this reason fuses and breakers are sized based on the connected wires (See attached sheet). Power loss to heat; P=I[sup][/sup]2R
Monitoring devices; Not all measuring devices do the job with the same degree of accuracy. For solar applications, this may not be an issue at all; the monitoring devices we use may not be accurate by standards in some industries, but they give us the requisite information with a degree of accuracy, satisfactory enough to tell us we are in trouble or not. But, when two different devices (from different manufacturers) are being used to take measurements, the difference in measuring and calibration methods may contribute a little bit for us to be alarmed. You may want to use the same device in taking all your measurements.
Some of the points above are insignificant, but I thought it is worth mentioning if all contributing factors are to be considered. Nice explanation BUT not all inverters use fan for cooling, there buy reducing extra load. |

4llerbuntu: 1. You need a 4G Glo sim. It's not the same as any other Glo sim. You must go to their office to swap your present line or buy a new one.
2. Glo sim doesn't connect to 4G without a data subscription. It will only connect to 3G if you don't have a data plan no matter what you do
3. You need to create a new apn for Glo. 'gloflat'
4. You might need to set your modem to 4G only
5. Are you sure there's Glo 4G service in your place? Are you saying Ntel modem supports band 28 700mhz that glo uses? |
