We have updated our grid tied micro kits on the website.
We have two pensioner kits, one at 800w and the other 2000w
We also added a grid tied 3.2kw Diy kit.
Deye micro inverters have a 15 year warranty and they are pretty robust little things. of course if you know Deye and Sunsynk are the same company and are premium hardware which everyone seems to recommend – sunsynk or victron.
We don’t really go big for grid tied systems as they are a bit of a hit and miss. firstly you only save what you use. Therefore a bigger system does not mean you save more money. – but you could get paid for export!. The second down side is that you have no battery, so no buffer and no night power from stored solar, – But you could add a AC coupled battery system.
with those buts you could just by a hybrid system, but that’s different money..
The idea.
Micro solar and all the MPPTs allows shading, difficult roof, and mixed installation of panels and inverters to power your home. The pensioner kits speak for themselves as they are very low cost and off sets that growing power bill.. now be a good child and buy one for your parents 🙂
I guess those greenies will like that the carbon emissions , even if its not saving themselves will be saving others and a fluffy rabbit or two so not all bad and the investment price is not to bad either. the pensioners do have installation however the larger kit is not with installation.
A grouped 4 and 4 array is possibly the best option or just all 8 panels together, but you could factually mount all panels separately and at different angles, this is because of the mppt is per panel. Frankly if this was the installation I wouldn’t want to be doing it.
Easy installation.
Some of the solar installations can be a bit much you have DC cables running to an inverter and then a chunky AC cable running to the distribution. While this may sound pretty much the same, you have DC cables from the panel to the inverter mounted with the panels, so no cables, unless we are moving panels around then we add cables to achieve the results. but the single AC cable is pretty well known and pretty easy to lay out the run for the inverters.
We already have guides on installing the inverters and there is space on the forum for Q and A.
As you can see in the picture, we have a bus cable connected to each of the micro inverters, you can have more, but generally 8 panels fit the whole side of a roof so you may want to think about other places to fit panels.
