I later did some troubleshooting about this issue and I discovered this only occur when the solar panels are connected. If i turn of the solar breaker this series issue doesn't occur, but when i turn it on back it occur again.
The inverter is an Hybrid inverter so the solar is connected to it.
I can't say the power coming from the solar is too much cos they are just 3* 300w 36v solar panels.
I've tried contacting the technician at SMS sunmate inverter, I'm yet to get a positive feedback from them. The only solution i have at hand now is to result to an external charge controller which is something I don't wanna do. But it's looking like i don't have much choice here.
Seems like a grounding issue.

Neat. I guess those panels are 180w per module, did you connect them 2s5p configuration? If so, what cable size did you use for the PV to controller?

I Just got my "POWMR" CC yesterday.
I have a 100ah battery connected to 24v pv and a pmw CC.
With a Ups connected connected to the load port of pmw.

But the new POWMR 60a said I should not connect inverter to the cc, that it can damage the Cc. Is it right?
Why are you connecting a UPS to the load port? Hope you know the capacity of that port?

Good evening Son of zion. The most righteous and ever holy one. Calling me out yet again after a deal gone bad just shows how low you can go. So unnecessary. I didn't scam you God knows and anyone reading narrations would know that too. I love Niggas that have balls and I don't like that you lack both. This is gone with last year and I honestly wish our business went better. Do enjoy your new 55" LG 4k TV.
Gtfoh!! Asswipe... You expected me to come low to your level and start fighting for my money you swindled me of. Nah, I'm bigger than that.

HOW IT ENDED..

So after many back and forth and considerations, I had to concede to this seller to a 60/40 refund. I forfeited #76,000 of my money, and he took custody of the TVs. He paid the money in three instalments with me having to cajole and remind him about it in a space of about 1month. (I really hated to have to remind him about it.)

So I'm 76K SHORT WITH NO TV.

I have counted my losses and relative gains, shrugged off the feelings of loss as much as possible.

Will I RECOMMEND SELLER TO MY ENEMY, HELL NO!
.
.
.
Looking at the positives; from the escalation of this issue here, someone contacted me for a solar installation deal that I made some small profit from, and the client is also enjoying his installation. Client was going to commit funds to seller for a TV but this escalation made him rethink his decision. Now he is enjoying value for his hard earned money (see pic 2)

Na God use that one console me.

I have reverted back to my projector that has not disappointed me both before and after the whole TV problem (see attached pic). I'm still using same inverter, surge, and power supply that the seller said probably damaged his TVs. Infact I have added an AC to my inverter and it powers it with no problem
UPDATE

29th of June 2023, I got a brand new 55" smart TV from Fouani store. I am powering it with the same inverter using the same power surge and the TV is still working fine till tomorrow....Alabaconnect is a simply a small, useless thief.

Hello house,

I tracked down a wire burning smell to the electrical plug adaptor that my inverter is charged by the mains.

I then touched it, and it was hot so hot it could burn if the fingers were left there for a considerable length of time.

What is the best way to resolve this issue?

Thanks, in advance!

Additional point: The wire itself is not hot, it is just the plug adaptor that is hot
Partial contact with the plug...I advice you replace the socket with a higher rating type and plug too.

Does this mean you are off-grid completely?

Cos what happens when there is NEPA.
I'm mostly off grid...if ever I decide to switch to nepa to check my credit, reason being that my landlord begged me to use my nepa meter to power some shops in front of the house since I barely use the meter anyway, I run my house on nepa directly.

The battery is charged ONLY with solar

Happy Sunday guys.
Thanks for your valuable responses to this 👆🏾

You all have advised me to get a transformer based inverter as replacement.

On a second thought, I'm thinking of upgrading my setup too.

My current setup:
1. Ipower 3kva hybrid inverter (now damaged) but I'm presently using my backup 2kva ipower Hybrid inverter.
2. 60A ipower MPPT CC with solar max voltage of 145 Vdc
3. 2 GSR G250 tubular batteries (maybe 200ah or 250ah, I'm not sure). But it's a 24v setup
4. 4 300W mono solar panels

I have a slight issue though. Due to the position of my house and the roof design, I observed that the sun is usually on the opposite side of the panels any time after 1 pm. So, the charging rate is usually low during this period.

1. How do I resolve this issue?
2. Please recommend a medium level upgrade to this current setup. I'll appreciate if it can power my 1hp Home water pump, not necessary though (I don't know the power rating).
3. Recommending tested and trusted brands is also highly appreciated.
4. Additional information or advice

Please note, I'm completely off grid.

Thanks and God bless!
1. Change your panels location to optimize pv harvest, also increase the number of your solar panels
2. Confirm your installation is well grounded.
3. Of tubular and sealed lead acids, I prefer the latter. But some people here will argue that lithium is the best way to go. I still use lead acid anyway.

Cheers.

if I were you, I wouldn't rest till I have had an understanding of HOW. it doesn't hurt to peep you know.

Would have said it's AirTight, but we know say being TRANSFORMERless, meant it contains lots of MOSFETs and Transistsors, etc and those would have HeatSinks. Even if na Transformer based sef, it still can't be airTight.

If na splashes, that's not much an issue BUT submerged, hmm I...
It's designed to not have water splashed on it...so what do i want to prode for again? Maybe it was sheer luck.

Not saying they ain't Strong enough, just that when e [Finally] dies, REPAIRs is difficult, if not almost impossible.

Also, a lot of us in here dey talk with neither personal experience, nor background. More like those Tianshi, GNLD, FLP, etc marketers turned doctors wey fit swear on top their wares even when dem never see am in action before.



Also, I'm tempted to ask how the inverter could survive under regular rains entering it ? Abi make I no ask ? or mayBe na water-Resistant ?
Hahaha....it is ok to ask. I myself don't know how it survived, frankly. I would come back from work and see dust mapped with water. So I assumed it was just splashes of rain, until the day I was at home and saw the whole thing. On a second though, maybe some fragile components have a coating to protect them from water splash but not being submerged. I dont know sha....the inverter still works.

Nice.

I wasn't so sure if I liked this product when I used it for a 12v installation; its voltage tracking was just a headache. But I noticed it is more accurate on a 24v system and works wonders.

5 years no be beans, enjoy bro.

I'll advice you stock up a spare. That's what I usually do.
Satellite TV Technology › Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Trippledots(m): 9:33am On Oct 14, 2023
Omo, professors don plenty pass student for this forum o. grin

I have used and installed and worked with "sachet" inverters and "transformer ", I still prefer the sachet ones oh -- atleast for my needs; which include a 1.5hp inverter ac.

I had a sachet inverter that took in water like a fish, dude kept working. I didn't appreciate the hell it went through till the day I was around and there was a storm and I saw how wind blew torrents of rain unto the inverter...I come de feel like one kain heartless installer cry . Infact the two cooling fans died with months apart and I was wondering what was killing them. The inverter overtemp protection worked everytime!!

The only part I miss from transformer types is the ATS, but again I'm probably 95% offgrid, so?

I have currently upgraded to a 5kw sachet but with better protection from the elements, and it's been working 24/7.

Even, if e die e no to cost to replace, compared to the transformer type of same capacity.

PS: I don work with some premium brands too, so I have a little experience of both premium and not so premium and basic.

earthrealm:
he is wrong wrongest.

flooded batteries still emit gases, however because the average installer in clueless and inept, they usually don't program the inverter properly, so the inverter ends up sending suboptimal voltages to the battery.
flooded battery usually requires 14.5v to 14.8v for proper charging and 15.5v every 4hrs monthly. the battery will usually release gases/fumes during this equalization cos of the higher voltages sent to the battery. most un programmed inverters send only about 13.8v to 14.3v , this voltage is too low to produce any serious fumes/gases, and they also don't equalize----with this you see some flooded battery users saying they only top up water once a year huh, very very wrong, and such practise is irreversibly damaging the battery
Thank you...

Especially that LG, Getting original LG tv is like looking for gold among stones. My mum bought fake, i got fake for my parent in law. I was able to get original. The difference between original and fake is like night and day in picture/video quality.
Anything LG, just go to Foani or any of there accredited sellers, that's the only 100% guarantee of getting original, anything apart from this, you might joyfully be hugging a fake home.
After my sordid experience with Alaba boys for TV matter, I just went to Fouani showroom at ikeja, carry my 55incher with 2yrs warranty go house....the bad boy is still working well, although I rarely watch it sef. We never on the thing for almost a month now.
