yes, schneider shows DC CCs on both sides, though they might have the PDP on the left. Oh, you have the miniPDP. I think it will work

corrected an NEC error after upgrading from 1-1/4 PVC conduit to 2" EMT conduit, the new conduit has more capacity therefore on my 8 space grid panel feeding to the Transfer switch AND to the inverter, I have removed the conduit to the inverter and moved those conductors there were there to...

the TS is center left grid comes in from the top critical loads panel is the big one to the right schematic is in post #1 of MY BUILD THREAD, which as a link in my signature below

I use this 100 amp TS to switch my whole house panel between grid and solar/battery...

yeah, they look good and have some nice features, yet their core capabilities (battery size, panel capacity) are LOW. That is why I built my own dolly based 3000 watt Growatt with a 2.5kwh battery. Has a 20 amp circuit and was $1300 at the time and 5 times the capacity of the packaged $2000...

My XW Pro does have a grid input on AC1, but I have that breaker OFF, all the "normal" time. I do not have netmetering at all to charge on those dark winter days and nights, I use the Chargeverter to charge the batteries and run house loads. I use the inverter's AUX port (dry contactor) to...

he is in henderson Nevada, a few miles SE of Las Vegas on the way to Hoover dam

I am trying to grasp where 4300 kwhr goes per month WITHOUT AC, like mentioned above a heater running? got water features? Energy Audit for sure with empirical sensors

I installed these above my panel https://www.ebay.com/itm/295452699896 https://diysolarforum.com/threads/solar-house-generator-i-started-diy-back-in-2000-my-path-from-trace-to-xantrex-on-fla-battery-to-xw-pro-inverters-on-tesla-model-s-batteries.11/post-774724 and while active at...

being EX californian now for 32 years, I forget that, I run mine on propane, but usually Nat Gas
