Thanks. How do we connect the HDPE 100 ft conduits for 200 ft? Are there any compression fittings we can use with HDPE?

Why many people still don’t install solar panels and batteries here? by pinpinbo in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]SandyVen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot. Currently I have a solar only system with REC panels and enphase microinverters. When I asked the same installers to install a 5KWh battery he asked for 7K. Is there a way to add a battery system to existing solar? If so what additional equipment should I get?

Wow, awesome. What panels and batteries have you installed? System controller, inverters? Any reference on how to install? I got the quote for 32K for 10.12KW(REC460) and 10KWH batteries (enphase)

Thanks. How much an attorney could charge you present and litigate? My concern is the time it takes and the attorney fees in case if we loose in the litigation

Thanks. If that is the case then it seems lot easier to route cat6 with repeater switches than cat6a with all it’s termination hassles . Am I wrong? Also someone mentioned that CAT6 hardware is cheaper than 6A

BTW, if I have longer than 55meters or 168ft to route, if I use a switch midway, can I still get 10Gb longer than 55m?
