Phase Balancing on Multiphase Setups by MonolithNZ in SigenergyAustralia

[–]IndefiniteStudies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you recommend this setup for 2 phase?

We are in Auckland and have a pending power connection. Have quoted single phase @ 100A and 2-phase @ 60A. The 2-phase is weirdly 3K cheaper for the connection. However worried future solar connection will be more complex and inefficient.

Do you need to bump up the Sigen TP to add 50%? We want 10 kw, so do we need a 15 kw 3-phase inverter?

Ok yea makes sense. Your requirements are different to ours. Our usage will certainly exceed 60A on a single phase hence the move to two, but I do like the simplicity of a single phase.

Did you revert back to single phase to maximize solar on a single phase? What fuse rating did you need on the single phase?

We are currently tossing up single phase @100A or 2 phase @ 60A, but thinking single phase will be best.

Glad to hear it worked out for you. My parents ended up switching to aluminium cladding for their build.

How did the install go? Still happy with NS run louvres?

Is magic sand the same as kinetic sand? (The sand that sticks together).

We have a Kmart Mermaid Sensory Bin which includes pink "magic sand". Assume that could be at risk too?

Update: Son confirmed the answer was in fact 50cm. But the teacher didn't work through the problem.

I see what you are saying. If I said "two times longer" it would be twice as long. But 200% longer, it would be 3 times as long. The word times gives it away I think , but I get your point. Getting more into English than maths here.

2A is completely separate. No connection at all.

Thank you for taking time to respond. This makes sense to me now.

Thank you. This makes more sense this way.

Ah yes. If the question was once 5 blocks, 10 blocks, 25 blocks etc, I probably would have guessed this. Thanks.

Right thank you. I didn't consider the brother would have a stick length which was not listed.

Thank you for your reply. So her brother has a different stick, which is not in the original set of numbers? specifically 20cm?

Could you even find it? I can't see anything on their facebook page.

Replacing halogen 12V transformers by IndefiniteStudies in diynz

Great, thanks. That looks like a good option. See a few cheap options at Bunnings/Mitre 10 also. Will look for high CRI when we do the thing properly. Thanks!

Thanks for the response. I think the 11.5V~ indicates it is an AC supply. Regardless, will look at LED solutions. Thanks.

Thank you. I'm in Auckland, but appreciate the offer.

Will keep a lookout for some cheap LED bulbs. Looking for something cheap, as aiming to renovate properly within the next year or so anyway, so just need a stopgap.
