When I want to on the fridge I off everything. It doesn't pick the fridge, it only picks the light inside the fridge if I open the fridge door. olopan: |

preyeamaorutobi: I see. Well, I doubt your fridge uses an inverter compressor like you said, else the inverter would have powered it. I suspect it is a normal compressor that has the usual high starting surge. You can confirm so by putting on the fridge while your gen is on. If it "draws" the gen on start up, then it is the normal compressor. If you confirm it to be a normal compressor, then it may be that your inverter is not truly 1.5kva so it is not able to accommodate that starting surge which could be over 1000w. We are also not sure whether your battery is getting enough charge particular from the solar panels, likely because the solar panels are not original (sorry to say so, I am sure you have read about labelling of panels here), so it could also be the case that the battery is not getting sufficient charge to supply the inverter the juice it needs to cushion the start up surge of the fridge between it trips off or so. Begin by leaving the battery to itself to charge full either through grid or via solar for a day. Then put off your ALL your load, and switch on ONLY the fridge first. If it doesn't power the fridge, then the inverter is likely the problem and a low hanging fruit you can resolve first. Update us on this and we can discuss further. 2 Likes |

isangjohnson: I agree. Very wrong advise from a place of ignorance. My first set up was a 12v connection with just one battery and it powered by 200+ litre fridge of 110w or so. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Iinnov8: 2:48pm On Sep 13 |
preyeamaorutobi: Usually, if a fridge is switched off and then put on within a short while, the internal light will come on, but the compressor will take some minutes to pick up. |

preyeamaorutobi: Your inverter is 1.5kva which Is adequate to provided power for the fridge. You just need more current (battery) so you don't damage your existing battery ( i no wan dey explain in details) Your 60A mppt controller would not function to its maximum abilities since your system is a low voltage system so pwm are better 2 Likes |

Good day House, I recently bought a solar generator (Ecoflow Delta 2) . I would like advice on how to connect it to the house to that it can power up my house lights and 2 sockets for fridge and Tv. Presently l use extension cables to power my fridge and entertainment centre. See attachment from their website. Thank you in advance

The battery usually charge to the fullest and float. Maybe I'll on the fridge again and keep it for about 20 minutes to see if it will pick. What do you mean by a low hanging fruit? Iinnov8: |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Iinnov8: 3:40pm On Sep 13 |
preyeamaorutobi: How do you know the battery gets full and floats regularly? Do you confirm so with an external voltmeter/multimeter? If you are relying on the reading from the inverter, then you are on a long thing as the voltage reading from the inverter is probably incorrect. Low hanging fruit is not a technical terminology. It simply means an option that is easy to accomplish first before moving on to harder option. 1 Like |

preyeamaorutobi: First picture is the fridge. It is a Haier Thermocool 259L non-inverter deep freezer. Second picture is the inverter. It is an Easun pure sine-wave offgrid inverter rated in watts, just like your appliances. It is rated 3000w/1500w (peak/continuous). You can see test videos of the inverter through this thread: https://www.nairaland.com/7833852/3000w-easun-pure-sine-wave 2 Likes

OgakingGozilla rival Get an original 13A plug decommision your old generator cable if you have it rewire the generator cable and switch the generator change over to the generator side. you should have power. if confused about this or running into a more complex situation, then you need a trained professsional.

Thanks for the feedback Can l have a situation where l keep the old generator cable but run a cable just for the solar inverter, where the solar inverter only powers lights and selected sockets. olopan: |
