How about a solar car port on a budget?
Crossy replied to Crossy's topic in Alternative/Renewable Energy Forum
Yeah, same version. Not worried (yet) whether it's the latest and greatest. -

Both powered up OK, no smoke of any colour observed 🙂 -
It's been noticed that some inverters which were previously on the list have "vanished". One would assume (bad idea I know) that these inverters would be grandfathered in. If anyone has earlier lists, please feel free to post here. Here's one of the earlier lists for reference. PEA Inverter list 6-2565.pdf

Long ago my parents ran a small minibus / coach hire company. Of course, hen parties were a staple. One young driver returned at 2AM ish having delivered the "hens" (in this case they were older ladies, more like "old-boilers" than spring chickens) home after their night out. He stated he'd barely escaped with his life after several of the "ladies" had decided that he would look much better without his trousers!

PEA requesting everybody to register
Crossy replied to manolothai's topic in Alternative/Renewable Energy Forum
Yeah, I noticed a few models that vanished. One must (sorry) assume that they are grandfathered for existing installations. Do you have a copy of the old list where they were included? -

... and include how it is actually wired up please 🙂 -
Combine ribald humour with peculiar sentence construction and a genuinely horrifying drinking culture, and what do you get? A dictionary’s worth of ‘drunkonyms’ Name: Drunkonyms. Age: As old as alcohol itself. Quantity: 546. I’m not entirely sure I know what a drunkonym is. Let me help you out. The Sámi people of northern Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia are said to have more than 300 words for snow. For example, “Åppås” means untouched winter snow, “Säásj” refers to old snow that has become loose and coarse and “Tsievve” is snow that has become so hard that not even reindeer can dig through it. This is fascinating, but what’s your point? My point is that, just as the Sámi have hundreds of words for snow, British people have hundreds of words for “drunk”. Five-hundred and forty-six, in fact. This sounds like an exaggeration. Fine, I’ll list them. Pissed. Sloshed. Stewed. Wrecked. Hammered. Bladdered. Plastered. Mullered. Pickled. Bevvied. Rubbered. Tanked. Cock-eyed. Zombied. Blootered. Trolleyed. Rat-arsed. … Read More https://www.theguardian.com/food/2024/feb/20/sloshed-plastered-and-gazeboed-why-britons-have-546-words-for-drunkenness Important Note: - The image is not me 7360.avif

I suspect that the halcyon days of unofficial net-metering (spinning a disc meter backwards when exporting energy) are coming to an end, it was good whilst it lasted. As to why PEA are asking now to "register" solar, they likely want to ensure that what's installed is at least reasonably safe for their linemen (i.e. proper grid-tie inverters with anti-islanding). @manolothai did they actually do any "inspecting", are you using inverters that are on the PEA approved list? 04 Inverter List Update 2024-05-08 (1).pdf -
Of course, if the switch is off and correctly wired then there shouldn't be a hazard. Ah ...

"Line-guard"? Possibly surge protection? Could you scan and post what documentation you have? EDIT Lord only knows: -

A few days ago, I got a great deal on some kit on Lazada. The base price of 40,500 THB was already pretty good, most other sellers were about 42,000. Lazada also had a 15% "6-6" voucher. So, I got 6,075 Baht off! Also, unusually, Lazada had two "6-6" 15% vouchers, so I bought another unit on a separate order using the second voucher. Total saving 12,150 THB. So, who actually picks up the tab for the discount, Lazada or the seller (or is it split in some way)? I note that the base price on that seller is now 41,800 THB and they are out of stock.
