mank1234: I prefer to USE the Single Pole MCB and contractor built in instead of one single contactor. This allows you to force individual loads or circuits to stay on NEPA or inverter if you choose or switch by timer based on your usage .e.g. weekdays keep fridge on Inverter as teh afternoon load is small when kids at school. Weekends Frdidge off but TV on inverter . Added advantage is you just replace the existing MCB no Seprate DB requited or create a DB with Rows of MCB saving space and money https://www.aliexpress.com/item/MKWCT-25M-Manual-220V-240V-Universal-Home-Household-AC-Contactor-Modular-Modulus-25Amps-2P-2-Two/32671904971.html? |

efuro: I bought and installed their 2kva/24v inverter. Noiseless unlike other midrange products that the fan turns on & off often. Performance has been good too Down side is that the finished work isn't crisps as labels are glued to casing and detaches after a while. E.g. input voltage label e.t.c 1 Like |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bodeface: 9:21am On May 20, 2017 |
Barezzi, Thanks for your reply, I am just double checking if any has any bad experience using such. I can only think of the angle iron rusting if not well treated, so care is exercised in treating the iron and painting the angle iron, that's my best option since I want the under to be a car port, thanks for double checking. On Schneider product, I will say they are robust but the challenge I have with them is that everything comes independent, say for the inverter you must have the system control panel SCP (a separate unit, bought differently) to do even just the programming of the inverter thereby increasing the cost of the entire complete installation, apart from that I cant think of any other thing.... perhaps any other installer may have a say on this.

Hello house, Anyone with experience on Schneider product should help out on this; Schneider Conext SW4024 Inverter tripping on F49 fault (DC Over Voltage), the battery bank is a set of eight nos of 200AH wired for 24VDC, I have monitored the charging voltage while the inverter is charging not to exceed 26.1VDC and the battery bank voltage sitting pretty at about 24.8VDC, however once the utility power is applied to the inverter after charging for about 2-3 mins will trip on F49 fault. Has anyone experienced this before? Appreciate all comments |

hello GeorgeD1 I have tried to call you several times without success. A colleague just purchased the 100 liters solar water heater after I convinced him it is cheaper in the long run. We went to his house to do some survey, but I don't have the experience to advice him on the best possible position and installation. My purpose of calling was for you to help link him to the plumber who installed yours to do the installation. Please help oh, before he feels I gave him a wrong investment advice. |

life707: nice reading ur views. I hope dey improve. thank you for believing in nija. we get there sooner than we think. let's buy nija panels instead of Indian or chinko or any other. my next upgrade will revolves round nija (at least 30% local content) imagine Australia has 1.2m households using solar, Nigeria can do better with local content. cheers. 3 Likes |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by bodeface: 8:21am On May 21, 2017 |
I have been able to resolve this, for the record purpose while using the Schneider Conext SW4024 Inverter built-in charge only to charge the battery without solar installation with external charge controller, in the setup parameters while commissioning the unit you must adequately define the battery parameters and more importantly you must ensure that the right charging rate for battery is calculated and represented by the right percentage setting under the Charge rate parameters, otherwise you will be having F49 fault (DC Over Voltage), which might take you a while to figure it out. bodeface: 1 Like |

Saipro: True talk. I came across this nameless fridge/freezer reading 72w only. But I went back there with A/C watt meter & had a reading of 102w wen compressor kicked.. maybe some enthusiast will check model online for nameplate or http://www.google.com.ng/url?q=http://www.sy-beier.com/Product/3980245831.html&sa=U&ved=0ahUKEwiYs_S9z4DUAhWNalAKHUD3CSsQFggLMAA&sig2=W5p8GZW-GZXyWxDouaRGkA&usg=AFQjCNH1qncdoshfOPMXm9iSanf0LCbPrw

Nigeria companies need to step up real big rather than focus their energy at appealing to patriotic favor. They need to build their strategy around marketing to the consumer and competing with the best rather than focusing on getting exclusive government contract. Personally I try to avoid many Nigerian companies. Even big house old names like Zinox are an eyesore and can ruin your business with their lack or professionalism. efuro: 1 Like |

efuro: Problem is when it develops a fault and then you are stuck because very few technician knows how to fix those things. Name brand is non tested durability is in question. Besides most convintional fridge are getting more and more efficient as long as you have your system is well sized u will be fine. 2 Likes |

bigrovar: good point sir I was authoritatively informed it can be converted to conventional fridge/freezer but-then what a waste of resources just because of low wattage efficiency. |

microgiant: brother, sorry i've been very busy lately. let me call you so we can iron this out. with solar water heater, you can't go wrong. in fact i think there should a law in place for every household to have a least one system installed. my 300 litres is still performing wonderfully despite the onset of the rainy season and i'll be doing a review soon. believe me, that man will come to your house and thank you when his system is finally up and running. cheers! |

efuro: for real ![]() zinox is not exactly made in nigeria, it more like assembled in nigeria, the govt and enviroment isnt helping at all. i bought a remote controlled ceiling fan not long ago...and i opened the controller to observe. the circuitry is quite simple, and is what a secondary school student should be able to design and mass produce. it also has an inbuilt timer i have fallen in love with the remote control aspect of the fan that i wish i can change all the manual controls of my fans to remote control. i wudnt mind buying just the remote controll unit 1k or 2k |

Today makes it a year since I turned on my off-grid setup. It's been an amazing journey and surpass my expectations. From a lowly modest system of 480w I gradually grew the system to a lowly modest 1kw. And in the progress of increasing the system to 1.8kw. The expansion plan is to install a 800w panel array on the western facing side of the roof to tap into the mid to late afternoon sun. The western panels would be connected to a different charge controller which will run in parallel with the main controller connected to the south facing PV. I decided to install the new panel to the west because I have ran out of space for new ground mounted system. 1.8w system on a 24v battery setup would probably provide current that would be over the recommended bulk limits of my flooded battery. By having the 2 array face different orientations I would be preventing them from hitting pick at the same time. While at the same time get more out of the 3pm 4pmish sun. Lastly my main south facing panels get shaded in the months of February and September between 3pm to 5pm. The west facing panels would reduce the effect of such shading my over all system since the western part of my roof is not affected. Splitting the panels between 2 different controllers helps diversify my access to the sun. Would update here how far this plans out. 5 Likes |
