Hi
Because of the layout of our house roof and shading we have recently installed a microinverter PV system, 22 of 275Wpanels with 235W Enphasemicros.
We're happy with the way the system is performing and have load shifted as much as practical with simple timers.
This is an average day for us
Above the lineis produced power, light blue is produced and used, dark blue is produced and exported.
Below the line is used power, light orange is produced andused, dark Orange is imported and used.
We're running Heat Pump Hot Water andPool pump during the day only, computers, stereo etcthe hours we're home and awake and have put most of our24hour stuff like TV, Blue ray, cordlesss phone, WIFI etc in on area that we've run off a 1500W24v UPS as a test (not running on this day) that I'm going to build the firstbattery packs for. (7S100P)
When it's settled I'll run the fridge as well (that's most of the lumps on night time power usage, a couple are the blower on sewage treatment system that runs all day and for 15 minute blocks every 3 hours overnight)
Slowly collecting and testing cells.
Stage2 will beto build another 7 of 100p packs and run the whole a whole of house system which brings me to my question.
All the systems im seeing are DC coupled with hybrid inverters, is anyone running an AC coupled system or have any advice on one?
Thanks
Jon
