1. Yes. Ur inverter AC charge is 40a sheybi. That means a 3kva stab is recommended. 2. Yes. 3s2p will do TechGeek777: 1 Like |

Jefferyzz:3kva stab will be too small for a 5kva inverter setup if you consider that the inverter has household loads on it while it will be charging the battery as well |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by earthrealm(m): 6:40am On Feb 24, 2023 |
Jefferyzz:Cc techgeek77 @ stabilizer, it depends on the grid voltage supplied by phcn in your area, if above 180v a 5kva stabilizer wud suffice, if below 140v you need a 10/15kva central stab. The above applies for a 48v inverter. If yours is 24v, a 5kva inverter would serve ok even at 150v grid supply 2 Likes |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Jefferyzz(m): 8:32am On Feb 24, 2023 |
U dey use the inverter capacity judge the AC charger. Some hybrid 5kva av seen don't draw more than 40a to charge the battery. N that's 2kwh. 5kva will b a waste of cash. Penuelseun: 1 Like |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by TechGeek777: 10:30am On Feb 24, 2023 |
Jefferyzz: Thanks. It's 50A I saw. How does one calculate or determine the stab to use, is it 50A * battery voltage 48 Or 50 * Ac Voltage 220? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by TechGeek777: 10:37am On Feb 24, 2023 |
earthrealm: Sometimes the grid volt input is 120 - 180v, but the stab would output/boost it to 200 - 230v, thereby making it to power the appliances that needed high volt for it to work well. It's 5kva Century stab, less than 2 yrs. Can this be used together with the 5kva inverter 48v? |

Please I have a 1.5kva setup (2 wet cell battery and 1.5kva inverter) I am considering upgrading to solar, yet all the people I've spoken to are still quoting very high prices for me. I paid for my setup 260k last year and I don't want to spend too much, I need your advise. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Jefferyzz(m): 2:35pm On Feb 24, 2023 |
It depends on d battery ure using as different batteries av different charging profile. but for 50a. U will need 5kva. As ur AC charger will b charging with 50a*56 or 57v which is above what 3kva can handle or u can tune d AC charger down to 40a if u wish to use 3kva stab TechGeek777: 1 Like |

tunetokheyno: Which inverter are you using? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by NiyiOmoIyunade(m): 4:43pm On Feb 25, 2023 |
I hear you boss but I am not sure I agree. I say often that because something appears to 'work' does not mean it is/has been done correctly. The Victron ESS and PV inverter assistant algorithms are designed to prioritise use of solar first then battery (if self consumption is desired) then Grid and lastly Generator. In the presence of PV the system will throttle Grid usage to the minimum possible based on current system state and settings (Grid Set Point), if the system starts a Generator and Generator power provided on a correctly designated AC input then the system will flog the Generator for the max input current limit. Consider that Diesel Gens save diesel consumption within specific loading bands, it is incorrect to assume that the inverter algorithm will automatically throttle Generator load demand into the next possible lower consumption band except somebody took the pain to implement an external control loop to this effect (which control loop is not a trivial undertaking). The inverter simply has no knowledge of the Gen capacity or diesel consumption saving band except for the input current limit set for the AC input the Gen is connected to. This setting is targeted to not overload the Gen and does not contemplate running the Gen 'efficiently' Trippledots: 1 Like |

Indeed physically isolating a device from the wall socket or disconnecting the energy source should save it from lightning surge induced damage. Be aware that opening a PV breaker or any other breaker will not help protect against a surge, a decent surge will jump right across the space between the contacts and do its evil work. When a breaker trips upon impact from lightning induced surge, the surge current already passed through well before the breaker could respond. You either invest in sufficient lightning protection or physically totally disconnect the device e.g remove both PV cables from CC when a storm is impending gadgetplanetng: 4 Likes |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by oloet: 7:51am On Feb 26, 2023 |
NiyiOmoIyunade:Does this mean that surge can pass through a breaker even if it was switched off before a storm? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by NiyiOmoIyunade(m): 8:04am On Feb 26, 2023 |
Most definitely yes. Consider that lightning is poweful enough to cross from cloud to object on earth passing through thin air (the air becomes an electrical conductor at such energy levels). Ditto the induced surge in your home wiring can easily arc/jump across the tiny air gap when your breaker contacts are open. Safe electrical isolators give sufficient space clearance and also sometimes use an insulation barrier to ensure the contacts are truly open. An average home use breaker is not a safe electrical isolator. oloet: 2 Likes |
