Alu cable is the Devil's own invention... I would never use that for a PV run. But, thats me. Transmissability(hm...) is bad in Alu vs. Copper. Copper 4mm2 for that length should be good. Over 150-200 feet/50-70m I would use 6mm2. As a rule of thumb. This summer I will run around 200m or 600...

Where people usually f... up is the sensor leads going to each battery. Important that measured progression of the leads show another 3.2V going from cell 1 to 2, 2-3 etc all up to 16. This must be checked and done BEFORE connecting the leads plugs to the BMS. Also, the last positive must have...

The CT should always be installed. On the Live AC wire coming from the grid into the inverter.

Okay from Spain. Might be your local internet supplier who has bad routing to this site. Call them.

JK for the win ^^

Oldphile is correct. TOU override are active both in grid connected and in off-grid. If you disable the TOU then the inverters standard set values apply.

Don't you have a BMS?

Your battery needs to be connected and working properly. That will fix that dropout. Also: MEASURE the AC in at that time and see what the volts are. If the PoCo drops the power during a switchover or similar and you have no batteries connected and working..."darkness my old friend". This is...

I put both of the BMS cables into one cable lug (35mm2) and it fits perfectly. Saw no point in fiddling with 2 separate cables to and from the BMS on both sides.

You can buy foldable ferrite rings with locking clips on f.ex. amazon. As normal AC cables are often stiff and not very bendable to go through sealed ferrite rings multiple times. The ones I mentioned are very easy to install and works well.

Do you have batteries?

This sounds more like a distributors wet dream... I foresee no hike in panel prices. ^^ Prices will still go down as there are overproduction.

I moved my 4 pcs. of 200 lbs heavy batts. We were 2 people, with muscles ^^ ;) Used some ratched bands around them to be able to lift them up into the rack. Heavy but not undoable. But, nice that it's done...

Finally finishing my 8 channel amp for my Cinema. Have been left in limbo for some time. Got to get it working.

That is not correct. The same protection a BMS offers are not only available when doing BMS comms.
