  1. Point of order. Please do not confuse kW (kilowatts) which is a measure of power with kWh (kilowatt-hours) which is a measurement of energy. A 300W (0.3kW) panel will generate about 1kWh per day on average in Thailand. Did PEA authorise a 60kW or a 60kWh system? And, importantly, did you get that in writing?
  2. In most countries we get rained off. As in all things, Texas has to go bigger and better. Tornado! https://www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Articles/2024/05/30/t20-world-cup-texas-stadium-damaged First match is 01 June 2024. Actually 07.30 on the 2nd in Thailand.
  3. Could you make alternative mechanical arrangements but still using micro-switches?
  4. @CallumWK these switches are sooo cheap, particularly if you just buy the actual switch element itself, that it really isn't worth your time messing about.
  5. To be honest with the level of knowledge they're showing, by far the best course of action for our OP would be to continue his replacement of like for like.
  6. Unless it's a hall-effect switch, in which case AC will kill it.
  7. What happens if you measure a 9V battery with the meter set to "AC". Some (mainly cheap) meters will measure "something" if set incorrectly, I suspect your 5V DC is actually what you have.
  8. Image added to the pinned Local Forum Rules thread which already had said warning. Take care out there.
  9. Definitely Forum Follow, pressing it gives: - Using the Samsung built-in browser.
  10. It seems to be right at the bottom after the last thread
  11. OK so now we know it's an issue on mobile.
  12. Go for one of the known brands, Panasonic, Schneider/Square-D etc. and you should be good to go. We bought everything Panasonic initially, but over the years Haco and Chang have crept into the mix mainly due to the configuration we needed being in-stock. By the way, a cooktop/hob should have a dedicated circuit unless it's just for the igniter on a gas one.
  13. Are you emailing from the address you used to register?
  14. We’re about 15 minutes out from landing. The Pilot tells us to look down and that we are passing over the co-pilots house. the copilot was happy to be coming home and to see his wife and kids. If we looked carefully, we could see the house and amazingly enough the blue van in the driveway. A minute or so passes and the Pilot comes back on, “I am told he does NOT have a blue van.”
  15. I'm in two minds here. The gallant-knight in shining armour on a big white charger (pun intended) in me would immediately gallop to her assistance. The sceptic in me says "honey trap", get me out of my vehicle then bop!! In a temple parking with lots of people about the knight wins hands down, on a dark country road ... This is what Roadside-Assistance is for.
  16. Depending upon the installed firmware and settings the meters can monitor and record many parameters. Common settings would include: - Import and Export energy Time of Use (on/off peak) usage Pressing the blue(?) button switches between at least two display modes.
  17. Latest list from PEA 04 Inverter List Update 2024-05-08.pdf
  18. Latest PEA approval list. 04 Inverter List Update 2024-05-08.pdf
  19. For information, this is the latest list of PEA approved inverters. It's good to see an increasing number of hybrids being approved including my intended Deye 5kW units. 04 Inverter List Update 2024-05-08.pdf
  20. If he's grid-tied and exporting the meter is quite capable of recording the energy exported. There have been other reports of the second meter channel recording solar export by default, and even a couple of reports of customers being billed for that exported energy!
