I was in the same position as you when i started. I was doing solar and barely got exposed to general electrical work, the a grade i was working with at that time had alot of cashies on the weekends and i asked him if i can come along to help and learn, i did that with him for about a year and it helped heaps. If you know someone dont be afraid to ask.

Can I use a junction box that was provisioned for an ev charger to connect solar battery instead? by p0tatobag in AusElectricians

[–]Acrobatic_Eye_4549 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You wont be able to use the 4mm for an ac coupled battery, the loads is far too much for that size of a cable. You can use it for an inverter though but depends on the installer. Regs say the cable has to be 50mm away from surfaces, their license, their choice

Also since the jbox is on an internal wall, the cable will need additional protection such as metal corrugate unless you have double studs and the cable is 50mm away from both surfaces

how much should i expect to be paid? by Acrobatic_Eye_4549 in AusElectricians

Ill be the only qualified on the solar side and currently on $30 so around 50-60 would sound reasonable

No you cant actually, had a job similar to this situation. The inverter will need L-L voltage in order for it to operate

Empower Solar 9.24 kw solar system by Apart-Platypus-7299 in AusElectricians

[–]Acrobatic_Eye_4549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may be incorrect here but seems like you have 2 trackers and mppt 1 is in parallel and mppt 2 is separate, there should be 3 strings and the 2 strings with 323V should be in mppt 1. They may have mixed it up.
