You will need to measure how many watts the inverter is pulling of the battery when there is nothing hooked up to the output of the inverter you cannot go by what the specks say as most lie I have not found one that is correct most will be way under what the unit is actually drawing.

Does the AC run of of 12 vdc or does it run off of 120 VAC if the later you need to factor the inverter idle load also.

Rat chewing on the cable could cross them like it was a cross over cable not likely but could happen.

French Fried appliances.

It was using the load output when it fried the load it was supposed to output 0 vac instead it output 400 vac.

An inverter that is is only supposed to put out 240 putting out 400 vac is not unusual to you?

The 6000xp is advertise as off grid where as the 18k is hybrid inverter.

I have a pair of those to in parallel but I do not have them connected to the grid and do not plan to do that unless it is for charging the batteries.

I am thinking that there is some analog signals in that cable but the data is not as sensitive as the analog and you can get away with it being in the same tray but separate trays or conduits is better. There are 10's of KW in that tray.

Nope I was in manufacturing research and development low level analog.

The shielding is only good for electrostatic interference not strong magnetic fields. If the equipment has problems and no other options you abandon the project There are always other options.

Even the highest shielded cables do not shield from magnetic interference metal conduit helps.

It is BAD practice to run signal cables with power cables.

A few seconds to disconnect is unbelievable I would believe a few seconds to start up again. I will believe a few milliseconds to disconnect.

You are correct but they would not have to buy a house full of appliances.

Better yet use different style cables with propriety ends not RJ45

Don't waste your time as it was an EG4 problem.

it only affects the amperage.

The same thing that happens when you do not plug in any thing in the wall socket.

On a partly cloudy day I have seen 15% more current than on a clear day due to cloud reflections.

More of both it is like can you have too much Money.

Nope

You need to find out what they mean by standby at 10 watts that is not believable when the unit is inverting.

I just finished setting up my two eg4 6000xp's I used a android phone and a android tablet ( which is not logged in to EG4). The WifI dongle does not see 5g at all only 2g.:(

What would you transfer it to?

Overcast most of the day 66 panels at 3 PM sun comes out.

Install a fuel pump on main tank to transfer fuel to the secondary tank while filling the main tank.

I also notice in the specs that you cannot charge the batteries at 8000 watts you can only charge max 7000 watts 125 max charge current times battery voltage 56 = 7000 watts.

He said kilowatt not kilowatt hour.

If you have a 2024 EG4 6000ex I would like to know what you measure on the Idle Consumption is as I do not trust the manual. I have a old transformer EG4 6000ex and the stated idle consumption is stated at 100 watts it is not even close to that figure at 130 watts.

Lets hope you outgrow those servers sooner than that.LOL

My system is not grid-tied but is split into non-grid and grid with the water heater, stove, dryer, and sump pump on the grid that usage on my bill is $ 25 a month an inverter for those items is $5K. The rest of the house is off-grid I have all my AC, heat, and small stuff (computers, lights...

An air-to-air heat pump in your area is not recommended due to the low COP (less than 1) at the low temps you get however a water-to-air heat pump COP can be as much as 3 or more.

I cover all around and it has helped a lot in not having to drain the pipes as they never freeze now. You may be closer to me than that as I am only a mile from the parish line.

My system did ok for the freeze batteries dropped to 45 KWH took two days of sun to recharge to 95 KWH
