I was looking at one of those inverters but chose a growatt. I wonder if your pv input current limit is an actual limit or just what the inverter can use. The renogy rover li 60a mppt i use can have extra current going in and it'll clip excess and use the max to get 60a output, great for cloudy days.

@chrislewis9345 2 года назад

On a string of panels at or near 450vdc going to a growatt 5000es. would you ground the array and mount to ground rod? Also fuse/breaker the positive and negative pv wires or just the positive to isolate the rest of the system from lightning or an electrical short in the array? Inline fuses or breakers?

@BeeneEnergy 2 года назад

My understanding is that a ground mount array should be grounded to its own ground rod. It would not share a ground with the inverter. I believe that would be panels plus ground mount. Fuse/breaker is only there for convenience, with a single string you’ll never see more than the short circuit current rating of the panels. Lightning arrestor? That would be a fair question I don’t have an answer to. The breaker I’m using does break both positive and negative of the solar string. No specific reason for it though I’ve noticed that solar disconnects tend to do that so there’s probably a reason.

@diysolaradventures7894 2 года назад

And also if not unable to use ac input for ground do u ground the case to the house grounding rod or to the side of the breaker box and from there to a grounding rod it's a lot to this I'm trying to figure out lol

@diysolaradventures7894 2 года назад

@Philip8888888 Год назад

With the PV current input limitation, is it OK to have a greater amount of current come in through the PV (oversize PV) and the unit just clips or is it a hard limit that shouldn't be exceeded?

@BeeneEnergy Год назад

It’s not something I’ve tested. But the consensus in general is it just won’t pull more than the max. The manual for this unit just doesn’t explicitly state that unlike a solark or other nicer inverter charger.

Havent decided on the battery yet, or what size, maybe about 10kwh of battery backup. Solar currently goes into my main panel with a 40amp breaker. I'll need to put the solarEdge into my 100amp subpanel and the hybrid between that and the main panel. is PowMr 10k inverter good to handle all this?

@BeeneEnergy 2 месяца назад

I have not messed with the powmr hybrid. Likely it’s a re badged product of another name so you might be able to find data on it if you can find what it is. Usually ac coupled inverters have to go into the generator port of the hybrid inverter. But some allow the ac coupled inverter on the load output like you are talking about.

@wildness01 2 года назад

have you tested your batteries @ worst case scenario...IE full inverter load until low voltage cut out? I have a 4s 2p pack of these on a growatt 6000t, and before I install at my customers residence I wanted to test at worst case, but the bms's won't take it, I ve blown the mosfets off 3 bms's even after fully balancing the packs. seller has been great with warantee but mainly wondering if it's just me, or an inherent problem. individual batteries on a standalone 12v system have passed much tougher testing w/o failure for me, so I'm assuming it's the 48v @ higher amperage, but even at max power output from the inverter the individual batteries should only have a 60-70a load on them.

@BeeneEnergy 2 года назад

I haven’t, been working on finding 5kw of loads! Did find a dud battery though that cuts out at 60a loads :(. Will be working to get that one replaced.

For test loads, I just use space heaters. 1500 to 1800w each. Just keep adding until you max the inverter. They never pull exactly what they are rated, but 3 or 4 switched between high and low should be good. Just keep an eye on the inverter output.

Man you are talented with this and i could sure use some advice on my 3000 watt powmr all in one. Do you know how the ground neautral bonding works with this unit? I have a 30 amp female camper plug in the ac output. I have my camper plugged into it. I have my house wired into the ac input. When it is running my camper it shows like 40 volts thru my camper frame and its something to do with the inverter because the frame is not got current going thru it when i plug camper directly into the house. Any suggestions on this is greatly appreciated. Thankyou

@BeeneEnergy Год назад

I think you missed my question last time I asked. If the camper is plugged into the inverter and the inverter is plugged into the house does that eliminate the stray voltage? Aka does the unit need to be grounded instead of floating.

@matthewknight5641 Год назад

@@BeeneEnergyyes camper plugged into inverter and inverter plugged into house. It has stray voltage into camper frame. It doesn't matter if it's plugged into house or unplugged it still has stray voltage into camper frame. I'm sure it's something with inverter because if I plug camper directly into house the camper frame is no longer got the 40 volts going thru it. I might need to bond the neutral to the ground but I didn't want the ground loop thing I see so much about. I'm kinda thinking it needs the ground neutral bond and I think it might be an open neutral or open ground even while the inverter is plugged into the house. I figured it would use the house ground but it doesn't seem to be grounded at all even when in bypass or solar or battery mode. It's all extremely confusing to me but hopefully before long I can get it together without shocking me when it rains lol. That's how I first realized there was a problem was when it was raining and I tried going into my camper

@@BeeneEnergy I thought the inverter would use the house ground when it's plugged into house but its the same stray voltage plugged in or not. And in any mode in settings.

I'm kinda scared of the ac side of things but I gotta get this figured out. I have stage 4 cancer and I'm needing this thing making power so me and the wife has electricity if I get more sick ya know.

@BeeneEnergy Год назад

@@matthewknight5641 With the 5000w version I noticed something similar but it was resolved by plugging the ac source to ground.

@BeeneEnergy Год назад

With this inverter it should power up with a good battery OR solar coming in. As long as the toggle switch is in the on position. Can't see why it would need to be rebooted by disconnecting and reconnecting the battery but it's worth a shot.

@travishodges5179 2 года назад

Problems with unit, when on battery it won’t charge from ac. So when charging on ac and you have a max ac charge set(let’s say 10) and a max combined (say 60), and solar maxed out, result, regardless of the ac current set it will still charge at the combined max current rate! When you attach AC it automatically diverted the loads to grid and then wants to charge at max current when solar is present

@ericklein5097 Год назад

Just out of curiosity is there some kind of efficiency bonus to getting a similar or higher voltage than the voltage on the output of your inverter? I know DC to DC a buck converter is more efficient but I don’t know how inverters work. I know Will preaches higher voltage=thinner gauge wire for the same kw output and with 4/0 at like $5 a foot that adds up quick when you can run EVERYTHING on 2AWG if you stay under 125 Amps. 48V batteries (40V to 58V) will still be fine if you’re with at the bottom of the voltage and trying to push 5000W but you might want to bump that up to 1/0. Does anyone really have a need for transferring more than 5kw on these kinds of systems?

@SiriusSolar Год назад

@@ericklein5097 yes there are some efficiency gained by having your battery voltage closer to your ac voltage. But I think there's bigger gains to be had elsewhere like in the quality of the components and design. My 6 KW inverter uses between 15 and 30 idle consumption which I think is pretty freaking good compared to anything else I've ever seen for a 6 KW inverter.

@SiriusSolar Год назад

@@ericklein5097 But the AC waveform does go from zero up to 120 and back and forth so it's not just cut and dry like use a 120 volt battery. In fact the AC waveform goes far higher than 120. The 120 is just sort of like the average voltage. It actually gets up 170 volts at the top of the wave.

I've got some nicer Megarevo 8KW hybrid inverters that are a little better at ~75 watts.

@@BeeneEnergy oh ok what if I'm not using the grid for now should I ground the case I'm running the neutral and the line to a solar edge tx5000 Midpoiny transformer then from the transformer to a ground on neutral subpanel so I will have 120 AC

@BeeneEnergy 2 года назад

@@diysolaradventures7894 I’d use the input ground terminal for grounding. Willing to bet it has continuity to the case of the inverter.

Is it working fine today?

@BeeneEnergy 7 месяцев назад

To be fair I've moved to a different inverter here at my warehouse because I had a 24v battery readily available. So the 5kw has worked fine but is currently unused! I'm using the 3kw high voltage input powmr now (SRNE unit). And it's been working fantastic.

is it 110v or 220-230?

@JR-kk6ce 2 года назад

5000 watt setup using 100 watt golf cart batteries would be 50, 100 watt batteries at $300 each, would be $15,000 in batteries alone. I'm I missing something?

@BeeneEnergy 2 года назад

Each of those four batteries is 12.8v at 100amp hour. Which is 1,280watt hour. Four of them is right at 5,000watt hours. Coincidently the inverter can supply 5000w of power. Hence the title of the video :).

@SailProMarina 2 года назад

@@BeeneEnergy The batteries mostly... did you build them yourself to get 100ah for the cost you stated just over $300 ? Because I do believe you would only own quality products and I'd like to buy 6pcs or more of a 100ah LiFeP04 that is only 300ish.

@BeeneEnergy 2 года назад

@@SailProMarina These batteries have a single problem that I observed. In that the cells weren’t properly balanced when assembled. Regardless I still tested full capacity in the video I did last month on them. Hence me having them in a video. I absolutely don’t want to suggest anything that is sub par, but since these did live up to their capacity claims it seemed fair to use them. I’ve got a link to eBay down in the description, I get a little kickback if you buy through it. Certainly happy to know what people are skeptical about though because if I can curate videos that address more concerns it’s better for you which means it’s better for me.

POWMR - cheap short-lived Chinese products with zero maintenance and service. A clone of Voltronic products, made without quality control, with cheap components and ugly soldering. Unfortunately, I found out about all this when we opened my burned-out inverter, which only worked for 2 weeks at minimum load. Miser pays twice.

@BeeneEnergy 2 года назад

I’m sorry about your experience. I haven’t had any problems with them to date, including the hundreds of products I’ve helped people put into service from PowMr. I’ll readily admit there’s no expectation for support from PowMr, this is something I’d need to pay double for to Victron or Xantrex to get.

@@BeeneEnergy When buying, I was in a hurry, I had to reserve the power supply for the country house for the New Year holidays. And I reasoned as usual with any Chinese product - it will break - and I will buy another one, because it is cheap! But I realized my mistake when I saw a smoking appliance in a wooden house. It might not be so cheap if we weren't at home! And then the mockery of the Chinese, when they offered to make idiotic manipulations with the device themselves, as if they could bring it back to life. And then they just started ignoring me. Thank God the whole lesson was inexpensive and now I look only towards the brands that you yourself named.
