Hello All,
Currently have a 10.6kw system consisting of 40 Canadian Solar 280w panels with optimizers, Solar Edge 10k inverter. Have 3 Tesla Powerwall batteries in the system as well. With this we could be "independent" apx 75% of the time. When winter rolls around batteries will get 30-40% charge most days.
I want to add some more panels but my inverter is pretty much maxed out and would have to use optimizers with the solar edge inverter.
I have 14 more new 400w panels and a EG4 6000 inverter that I thought would work. The solar edge is a 220v split phase inverter and the EG4 is single phase.
Can I feed the EG4 with the new panels and connect the whole thing to the same line that feeds the home from the array? Have 2/0 cable feeding the home.
Not sure how things will work with 220 and 120 mixed.
Thanks John
