The inverter has been bought and installed, the question is can it do remote monitoring.

Jefferyzz:
Stay away from yohako product. There are lots of substandard products under yohako umbrella, there no way u u can figure out the good one.
This features u mentioned is on growatt, powmr, felicity, srne etc n price is budget as well.

Get a good sachet inverter
I replaced a 1.5kv Schneider Homaya (that has been with Schneider since July) with one and the difference is clear.
Battery lasts longer, less wahala.

pls how much did you get it

Please Pardon my curiosity o.

This one I'm seeing thunder there, hope it didn't directly strike your device?

And please what should one do to protect solar system against thunder
it did o. I guess installing thunder arrestor will help, sadly, I didn't do that

1) Lightning arrestor

2) A good earth for the inverter

3) SPD (surge protective device) installed

Good morning Guys, i will be hosting a Twitter space on saturday, it is basically a how to guide/education on what to expect, what frame of mind is needed before shelling out some cash to avoid mistakes of having an improperly designed solar system.

I hope to see some of us that may be chanced to grace the event and share their thoughts so that everybody pick a few newer ideas to take away.

I will be joined by Sintolord, trippledot and bigbrovar on the space.

Don't miss out! See you this weekend, Don't forget to set your reminder.

Good morning.

I need complete solar system for a Duplex with 3nos inverter acs.

Please give estimate and bulk park pricing.

Why do most so called "big inverters" get fried by thunder while most so called satchet (mostly overlooked) survive lightning. Abi na just by chance?

U need to have an idea of the wattage of appliances you want to use on the inverter and for how many hours? Its not just about mentioning nos of ACs you have.

Satchet inverter has more analog orientation (it's wave is generated by pwm) where pure sine wave makes use of microcontrollers which tend to "forget it's self " if static current passes through it, when it remembers, it might ignore it's dead time which affect the inverter drivers and other sensitive parts.
This is the major reason it's always affected.

That's why I mentioned it's for a Duplex. I assume any installer should have an idea of basic loads to carry. What is difference is most don't include ACs that's I why specified the exception.

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojesymsym: 2:59pm On Dec 29, 2023
It could be that because the sachet inverter has a lower battery cut off point which seems to give the semblance of a longer lasting battery whereas the battery is been drained low in the process

Not too bad. I've used it in the days of freestyle for solar panels.

I've seen an instance where thunder storms damaged 16 numbers of 350w solar panels, the inverter (which is a hybrid) in one day. Till today due to the cost of replacing those items, the organisation do not use renewable energy. Though they later installed an active thunder protection AFTER the damage.

The majority of Nigerians don't like to spend money on protective devices, they often seen it "unnecessary" .

Actually no.
I tell them to switch it off once it goes to 25.5v running.

Also the the freezer turning on with the older inverter would usually draw the older battery to as low as 21v, it's never happened with this one.

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Jefferyzz(m): 6:45pm On Dec 29, 2023
Lemme explain like this
Dem africell, flames n some other new panels wey get random names are not stated capacity. I'll use my experience as an example
400w generic panel will output 310-330w
400w real jinko Will output 400w or few watt above dat sef
Generic will cost u around 85-90k
Jinko Will cost u 120-130k
Generic are know to degrade faster eg Ur yield this yr will b higher than next yr.. say 1% yrly decline
Jinko datasheet state 0.5% decline yrly
If ure on a tight budget it's not bad. U will need to replace dem in 15-20yr as there will b a noticeable difference in performance by den.
Just do Ur Math n finance. U will b able to pick 1

The Alaba sticker has no serial number and date. Hold on a bit.

The truth is that a panel of 80k that can give u energy up to 15yrs cost just N14.60 daily. Remember too that the above cost was even due to inflation.

Tier one panels are good but most things are not real.
5litre engine oil is not real
Petrol in litre is not real

Truly solar energy is free.

Most ppu pay for darkness monthly on grid.

The 190w used(only heavenly bodies know the the age) panel i bought 2yrs ago is still active.

I have had experience with lightning killing my CC and inverter. My CC , Epever 60amps MPPT remains in coma till date. It is possible with panels too I think ( it has a diode at the back). I have never had a battery affected though.

Renewable energy isn't something u want to make assumptions for. U are dealing with a finite amount of energy unlike NEPA that would power everything u throw at it, na ur mthly bill go suffer am.
I hope u know there are some bungalows with more electrical appliances than a duplex. So saying its a duplex without specifying ur appliances is leaving urself at the mercy of ur installer.
Brightsolar has given u his package list though so u can guide urself with it or if you are DIY, assemble ur own solar system urself and just pay for installation. Peace !

Exactly my thoughts when I read his "I assume any installer should have an idea of basic loads to carry."

I no dey quote with house type. Load analysis must dey.
