I've bought it now - once again -thanks for all your help - regards - Phil

My 3.15Kw 14 panel system fitted in 2010 has more than paid for itself as (in the UK) I am on the original FITS payment scheme and now am getting over 70p a Kw. So far the system has cost £13,020 to install - was more expensive in those days - the German made "Scholtze" panels fitted were...

My old Sunny boy 3000 is 13 years old and is now occasionally tripping out and in - loosing me some valuable output . I would like a replacement that doesn't have any bells or whistles on it - my SB has only the 2 wires from the solar panels (3kw) and a plug with the mains supply making it easy...

"I think while the inverter is not operating, at night, the PV array could be grounded " So- I could run a wire to earth through a timeswitch set to, say 10pm-4am?? Yes - I see the SMA item isn't available.

Thanks for reply Sam - I can easily fit any other inverter that only needs the panel supply wires and an AC supply. I don't really want to get a fairly old though. If the used SB's run like this - then I'm all for it. It's in a steel outbuilding so the internet doesn't work and it's on a...

Hi "Hedges" - just back from hols and read your "PID" document. - very interesting. I see in the "corrective measures" description it says " Grounding the negative pole of the PV array resolves this problem. " - Does this mean that, by running an earth wire from the negative wire coming from...

Many Thanks for your replies Sam - I've got that one on my list of probables - according to the specs it exceeds all the parameters of my old one except it says 550volts max - mine is 600. I have never seen my voltage go over 440 - but I've never really looked hard! I don't know how to measure...

Do you mean this label? - I have just spoken to the vendor - seems knowledgeable and helpful - i needed to confirm that the panel wire clips/adaptors were the same - he can't see any problem with its compatibility - but he is the "seller".
