    Thanks for the comments. It is more clear to me how to fit it.

  • Post in thread: DEYE sun-8k-sg01lp1-eu configuration

    Checking the DEYE sun-8k-sg01lp1-eu manual I am unsure about how to configure the inverter to work on the following mode. - Primary power source: PV. It will be used to power the loads and charge the battery. Any excess production will be sold to the grid. - Secondary power source: Battery...

    What's the import duty then?
  • Post in thread: DEYE provider (SUN-8K-SG01LP1-EU)

    Yes. That's my worry too. So I think we need to find a trustable supplier regardless or serial numbers. Does anyone has experience buying deye inverters from DAH Solar?
  • Post in thread: DEYE provider (SUN-8K-SG01LP1-EU)

    The duty rate for inverters having a power handling capacity exceeding 7,5 kVA (8504408890) is 0%. For other converters (8504409090), the duty is also 0%. https://www.examinechina.com/blog/importing-energy-banks-from-china-to-the-eu/

    Are u talking about VAT or import duty?
  • Post in thread: Deye sun-8k-sg01lp1-eu clips production at 20A in one of the MPPT

    @shadowmaker Thanks for your comments. I have contacted DEYE support regarding the issue. The side sticker on my inverter clearly indicating PV Input current at 26A and also Max PV Input power at 10400W. 20A is far from 26A. I will update depending on the DEYE support answers.
  • Post in thread: DEYE SUN-8K-SG01LP1-EU wiring to PV string

    Hi there, I have a couple of doubts regarding the wiring for the SUN-8K-SG01LP1-EU inverter. These are the specs for this inverter regarding PV string input I am intending to connect 18 panels. Since there are 3 panels affected by morning shadow and the other 3 affected by afternoon shadow...
  • Post in thread: How many solar panels can I fit on my rooftop?

    Thanks @DIYrich Some calculations lead me to think that it may be required at least 3.3m between rows. I am not sure if I can fit 5 rows... Please check calculations below...

    What's the difference betwen shutdown, Low Batt and Restart values?
  • Post in thread: Deye sun-8k-sg01lp1-eu clips production at 20A in one of the MPPT

    @shadowmaker That’s finally clarifying. Datasheet is clearly not well structured. My interpretation was that it will take from the grid and provide to the load a Maximum of 8kw. The it will be able to provide 10.4kw back to the grid. What’s the purpose to be able to take a max pv 10.4 kw if you...

    Is 3m distance too much between 2.270m and 30º solar panels?
  • Post in thread: How many solar panels can I fit on my rooftop?

    This is the recommended setup from a solar panel dealer. It fits only 10 panes. It is obviously very safe to avoid any shadows, but I feel more panels could be fitted. How can I improve this setup? Thanks

    Hi, I have received this item with my DEYE sun-8k-sg01lp1-eu inverter gear. I am not sure what it is for. Could anyone help? Thanks

    Any help most welcome!
  • Post in thread: DEYE provider (SUN-8K-SG01LP1-EU)

    I will order an pay whatever comes. I will update the overall taxes here.
  • Post in thread: DEYE provider (SUN-8K-SG01LP1-EU)

    I meant if you order directly from Deye. Ningbo Cinco shared that with me. I have not been able to get in contact with Deye
  • Post in thread: Received this item with my Inverter. What is it for?

    Thanks for your reply @Ampster. Unfortunately there is no information on the deye manual about this ferrit core. I presume there is only two options to install it around the battery cables. Either closer to the Inverter or closer to the batteries. What's the standard?
  • Post in thread: DEYE provider (SUN-8K-SG01LP1-EU)

    You cannot just order directly. You need to contact the supplier first. This is quite common in Alibaba

  • Post in thread: DEYE SUN-8K-SG01LP1-EU ground connection

    Hi there, I am wondering how the ground connection to a DEYE SUN-8K-SG01LP1-EU should be done. For context, this is EU-based instalation. This is the recommended wiring for single phase EU grid connection: That will not provide ground connection. However, on the point 3.7 it mentions the...
  • Post in thread: Deye sun-8k-sg01lp1-eu clips production at 20A in one of the MPPT

    What will be the next single phase hybrid MODEL that will be able to take up 9900 pv production and feed it into the network?
  • Post in thread: Sizing battery based on energy production & consumption

    Yes. I have radiators running on natural gas and I am also connected to the grid. So I don't see a problem trying this winter with a smaller batch of batteries. Amy from Luyuan Technology shared prices with me. So the extra cost of shipping 16 now and another 16 later instead of 32 batteries now...
  • Post in thread: How many solar panels can I fit on my rooftop?

    Thanks for the suggestion. I came across this solarbloc east-west 15º solution: https://solarbloc.es/en/solarbloc-east-west/ I presume the structure is 15º due to shadowing the next row. Is there a solution with a higher angle?
  • Post in thread: Newbie Help: Axpert (Voltronic) MAX 8000 PV electrical design

    Thanks very much for your help DIYrich, Do you recommend a circuit breaker or any other type of shutdown device? Ok. Is there a 60v 200A switch that you could recommend? Why Lifep04 instead of Li-on? Just trying to understand
  • Post in thread: How many solar panels can I fit on my rooftop?

    Please find attached two videos on vimeo with a simulation (Dec & Jun) for the 18 panels ennova vela 10º structure. June: https://vimeo.com/853731654?share=copy December: https://vimeo.com/853731628?share=copy I have contacted the manufacturer. Share location and they stated that panels are...
  • Post in thread: DEYE SUN-8K-SG01LP1-EU wiring to PV string

    @RP67 Truly thanks for uploading this picture. I presume that the same applies to the current. Let me explain. If I connect 6+3, the current will not be summed as in parallel, 13A+13A (26A), but they will be as in series so the MPTT will only receive 13A. 13A will well under the specs (22A) but...

    Is this the correct section to ask about the above system?
