    Does this limit the grid feeding from the batteries or from solar or both? Can you submit the documentation for the PCS to the CEC for it? The Luxpower which is the same as the 18k is on the list. PG&E is creating a road block out of this.

    @EG4_Jared @EG4_Jarrett @EG4_Ty Can you help with this? This is holding a bunch of us back from buying the bundle.

    Sol-Ark 15k can run with closed loop communication with the batteries. The problem becomes the UL9540 certification. The Sol Ark and the PowerPro batteries together are not certified. They are certified with other inverters and batteries but not together. Depending on the AHJ, you may not...

    I recently went through this. PG&E will not allow it. @EG4_Jared @EG4_Jarrett @EG4_Ty Can you help with this? I got this response below. They made a suggestion to switch to the SolArk. I switched the inverter to SolArk and it was approved for interconnect. My AHJ approved the setup...

    EG4 batteries and Sol-Ark 15K

    I tried to go with the EG4 18k for the inverter but PG&E said it wasn't on the CEC PCS list. They asked for the info below and suggested to switch to the Sol-Ark: I switched to the Sol-Ark and just got the permit approved.

    EG4 batteries and Sol-Ark 15K

    6 months later.. has the powerpro has UL9540A and UL1973. Does that mean they can be paired with the Sol Ark 15k and meet UL9540.

    2 Sol-Ark 15K’s, 3 EG4 Power Pro’s, and 6 EG4 LL V2’s as a reserve battery bank

    Did you AHJ give you trouble about the UL 9540 certification?

    Pulling the Trigger and getting out from underneath PG&E's bootheel.

    How is the system running? Did you get a permit? I'm in the process of getting the permit on the same setup. Hoping the 9540 check passes.

    This is great. Did you have trouble getting the EG4 batteries and the Sol Ark to communicate with each other?

    EG4 18k with 100/125 Amp Service

    Recently got a house with a mystery panel. I don't see any labels on it anywhere. It has 1/0 Aluminum so it could be 100 or 125 amp rated. There are 3 breakers to it. 100 for the main sub panel, 60 for an old hot tub that no longer exists, and 40 for the old AC. I am planning on getting the...
