ssshhtttttttt But don't get caught spinning your meter backwards (or going into negative meter readings) or you will be stuck with a digital meter, which (AFAIK) will charge you for Export.

Talk to @KhunLA maybe his installer has what you want, but AFAIK he is from HuaHin but does projects all over Thailand

Have fun doing that. Just go online and buy direct from the manufacturer. I am doing the same with my new Inverters (Hybrid one and On-Grid (grid-tie) one). It is also a learning experience. If you buy direct from the Manufacturer ask if they have a Direct Line to Thailand for Shipping, in that case it could cut costs for customs etc etc Ps: I am in Buriram as well.

Thx. Ordered that one.

I found one, but I am surprised they are so cheap 700THB(ish) https://www.lazada.co.th/products/yqk-70-hydraulic-clamp-4-70-sqmm-hydraulic-crimping-pliers-i1826820163-s5495794451.html

Found the link, in your other thread. Updated my post. Still Wish it was that cheap 555555555555

Wow that is cheap. Edit: Different price (from your other thread)

This is happening in some countries in Europe already since a couple of years, I think one of my Banks in Europe started doing this in 2016 already.

What crimping tool can you recommend for 25mm² cable, we have lots of NYY 25mm² from the House Build left and want to use that for the Batteries.

I think in the last week since (Tuesday) we had about a dozen emails back and forth. I am not making any changes. Only in the Settings (on the inverter) turning on or off Anti-Reflux. That is it.

They know, they supplied the NEW firmware but I am still waiting for a new Manual.

But leave it be, I am already wasting too much time and what else on this. I am talking with my installer and we are shortlisting NEW inverters to replace this one (different brand) edit another topic already exists

I already discussed it with them and they said the same as you talk to Sofar. Those guys (where I bought it from) are just box movers nothing more.

Dont' you .................... think that I already did this? That was in the first emails I have send and I after I posted a thread about asking for an accurate Manual for this. The day I posted that thread was the day we started to commission the inverter. Since then we are running into these issues

I already explained it that the PIN assignments where different, but here you go with a scan of the page. 55555555555555 (hands of sofar), one week on and we got nowhere. I already made a shortlist of a new ON-Grid inverter (different brand) to replace this one.

Do you know what an On-Grid Inverter (which this is) do? https://aseannow.com/topic/1228023-whats-all-this-on-grid-off-grid-hybrid-stuff-all-about-solar-systems-demystified/

I have the same manual and in my case it's totally not Up to Par. One example where the manual is different is PIN assignments for CT. Another example, more options in my iNverter then there are listed in the Manual I also do that and I see the meter going backwards (although (again as said) ) ever so slowly when AR is enabled and power is set to zero. (In my setup) there is definitely GHOST Export. I have again send an email to them to Explain that and they have not yet responded. You pointed that out also in a previous post. Have those people checked the Sofar app and enabled Feed-in Power? To check if it actually is NOT exporting (because when AR = Enabled and Power set to 0 then the EXPORT (feed-in) should remain zero Edit: Here the manual I have (NO idea why you post a picture of it, but in the mean time I have several versions of it)

Overall my install is working great Some figures (from just now) with not even full sunshine the install is doing as follows producing: 3.54kW consumption: 310W PV1: 254,4V - 11,72A = 2.98kW PV2: 92,6V - 7.46A = 690W So not bad for all the panels and the combi of them

production has ramped up, it's still cloudy as .... but this starting too look good Ps: Export is on have to crawl back some of the losses from the last couple of days

Thx, but I am still looking for a new inverter. Just a cheap On-grid 5kW with 2x MPPT one. Hybrid research will be for later. Need to prove to SWMBO that the investment in this was worth it. At the moment the (now disconnected) GTI's are beating the real Inverter hands down. (I don't agree with that, but my wife looks at the meter reading and she only see those number so doesn't see the real benefit of a real inverter yet.)

I disconnected them via the Breaker and the output drops slightly (0.2kW) it's a very cloudy day here, production is down to approx 1kW max. But that said on the day of that we hooked everything up, we got approx 2-3kW production approx same weather conditions.

Yep, I have Reflux disabled because of the BAD weather, and he changed it back to enabled to test. I have reminded him that if he changes a setting to test to set it back to original and let me know what he has changed Yep, I send them a full screenshot, but they have access to ALL info anyway, but he is just looking at today and not what I have noticed in the last couple of days. NOPE I can disconnect the 3x335W panels and will check if that makes any difference

Got a reply, i had send them the graph which clearly shows the “ghost” export and the reply they gave me was set power to 0kW which it already has set to. So I do think it’s normal about the ghost export. so be aware that even with 0 kW export max, your inverter might still export a bit, not very nice if you have for example a digital meter which adds exported kW to your bill.

Yes on re-entry permit Yes on be back on time (on the date they stamp in your passport) personally I wouldn’t go abroad during that period in case IO need more proof (documents) (this happened to a friend of mine)
