    Hi Danille,

    It may be that you require more panel power from your array, however it would be best to get any technical advice from a qualified installer
    2. What will happen on a Growatt SPF5000ES when you exceed 5kw for more than 10 minutes while being grid fed?

    Hi, if your load exceeds 5kw it can handle twice the rating of the inverter, it will pass-through the grid power. But this is not recommended for any length of time.
    3. If you install this Inverter, would you also require a combiner box for the the PV array?

    Hi, for this particular inverter you won't need one, depending on what panels you have. If you have the same panel size and type for the whole array you won't need one.

    5. Hi, I am looking to match this inverter with a 16s prismatic cell LiFePo4 battery bank, will this be possible? Link to inverter: https://solaradvice.co.za/product/growatt-es-5kw-high-voltage-inverter/# I read the datasheet for this inverter and it mentioned you are only allowed to use LiFePo4 battery bank configuration that Growatt has configured: "If choosing lithium battery for SPF 3500 ES /SPF 5000 ES, you are allowed to use the lithium battery only which we have configured. There're two connectors on the lithium battery, RJ45 port of BMS and power cable." Link to the user manual: https://www.ginverter.com/upload/file/contents/2020/12/5fc5d8664c010.pdf Is this true? Maybe I interpreted read it wrong. Please confirm. Regards, Dewald

    Hi There, at the moment we do not have the 410W panels in stock we can however provide 400W panels. In terms of the battery backup what load are you wanting to run and for how long?

    This is going to determine how many batteries you will require.

    Hi There, The master inverter will need the wifi module. 

    An Axpert is considered an off-grid inverter with an AC input. It cannot mix and blend energies like a hybrid can. 

    For this, you would need to the Deye range of inverters. 

    The Growatt would be a better option over the Axpert due to its 5-year warranty and its ability to communicate better with Lithium batteries.
    10. What is the difference to the axpert 5000kva????? Plan +/- 45x410W panels, 4x6kva lithium storage and thought a hybrid inverter would be the best.

    Hi There, The Growatt 5kW and the Axpert are not Hybrid Inverters. You would need to look at the Deye 5kW Inverter as this is a pure Hybrid. 

    With regards to the panels, you would need to ensure that the correct number of panels are placed on the inverter as per it's specs.

    No, we require an EFT payment which you can do online and then we will arrange for you to pick up at our warehouse in Germiston.
    14. What is the maximum solar panels and lithium batteries I can connect to this inverter.
  14. Q What is the maximum solar panels and lithium batteries I can connect to this inverter.
    A Hi, the array can be a maximum of 5500 watts, if you bought 410 watts panels you would be able to have 12 of these (410 w x 12 = 4920 w). Or 16 with 310 watt panels. You can add whatever battery bank you want, this I recommend working out using the calculator as storage can get expensive.
    15. Does this come with the WIFI Monitoring device? If not how much extra ?

    17. Hi, I need a 8kva inverter to run my koi dam with all pumps and accessories. Initial costs are too expensive to purchase once off: My question is can a 3kva inverter be purchased? and thereafter a month later ANOTHER 3KVA INVERTER IS PURCHASED AND THEREAFTER ANOTHER 3KVA INVERTER IS PURCHASED. So in total i would have 9 kva inverter to operate the system. Can the inverters be purchased in this way and connected together in due time as funds are provided to afford.the solar system , obviously excluding panels etc

    A Hi Alan, the 3kW inverters cannot be paralleled, however, the 5kW inverters can. You are more than welcome to purchase one inverter a month and install them as you receive them. Please note that we always recommend having a solar system installed by a qualified electrician.

    Hi, it won't mix or blend the energy together like a Hybrid inverter would, I would suggest taking a look at the Deye, Goodwe or Sofar inverter to have that ability, you can view our Hybrid options here.
