    3 SolarEdge 18XB7 Failures

    Good chance there could be an issue with tesla not wiring properly or you are undersize. What is the capacity of your inverter and solar panels? I have a 7.6 setapp solaredge with 10.4kw system.

    14kW Tesla solar plan; DC/AC ratio of 0.8?

    Depends on which direction your panels will be facing. I have 26 panels (10.4kw) all facing SW. Production is estimated 13,300. I am also in PA near philadelphia.

    Canceling Tesla Solar order, seeking input on third party install and different panels

    Just my 2 cent, what if this company goes out of business lets say in 10 years. Your warranty is zero. I had my neighbor who went through this situation. I would say go with a reputable company where they will be in business for long time.

    Stay away from SolarEdge inverter

    Tesla installed solaredge 7.6kw (SE7600H) yesterday on a 10.4kWH system. Is this ok or they should have installed one smaller inverter along with a bigger one? I don't know how the calucation works. I bought extended warranty from Solaredge's website for $233

    Delta m8 vs tesla inverter

    Now Tesla is saying I will receive SolarEdge inverter in my new planset they sent me yesterday, but they don't know the model num. Did anyone received a Solaredge lately? If yes, please share the model num. I am trying to find the AC/DC ratio of this inverter and warranty info.

    Delta m8 vs tesla inverter

    This is what my advisor said in a chat "At this time, I do see that you will receive a 7.6 kW inverter for your 10.4 kW system size. Considering our inverters overdrive up to 150% then the inverter can handle much more than what it is described as. Inverters also inherently work more...

    Delta m8 vs tesla inverter

    LOL. That's my thread. My "Planset" shows tesla inverter, but they changed to Delta since PPL won't approve tesla inverter.

    Delta m8 vs tesla inverter

    How is Delta m8 inverter compared to Tesla 7.6kW inverter? Initially on my plan set they had tesla inverter, but had to switch to Delta since my utility company (PPL) won't allow them to install a tesla inverter.

    Is 7.6 kW Tesla enough for 10.4kw pv array solar panel system?

    Yes, I confirmed with Tesla and also checked my planset where it shows they will be installing 7.6 Kw tesla inverter. I know tesla inverter is not in PPL list of approved inverters, but Tesla just have to prove them it meets PPL requirements. See my attached planset screenshot.

    Is 7.6 kW Tesla enough for 10.4kw pv array solar panel system?

    Which direction are your panels facing? What i heard is tesla doesn't install 3rd party inverters anymore. I have PPL (utility) as well. I am in Souderton, PA. My installation is scheduled next tuesday and all panels are south facing.

    Is 7.6 kW Tesla enough for 10.4kw pv array solar panel system?

    If you do the math. 7.6 kw (inverter) * 1.7 (overdriving ratio) = 12.92 kw. One 7.6 kw inverter can support upto 12.92 kw system.

    Is 7.6 kW Tesla enough for 10.4kw pv array solar panel system?

    Is 7.6 kW Tesla enough for 10.4kw pv array solar panel system?

    Just spoke with Tesla advisor and here is what they replied "The Tesla inverter allows for a 1.6 ratio. The inverter size is fine and will allow for overdriving."

    Is 7.6 kW Tesla enough for 10.4kw pv array solar panel system?

    Is 7.6 kW Tesla enough for 10.4kw pv array solar panel system? I have 26 panels which equals to 10.4 kw system. Is one tesla 7.6 kw enough? Shouldn't they be installing two inverters?

    Tesla now keeps all the SRECs [SREC = Solar Renewable Energy Credits]

    Do they sell this yearly and you get $ amount every year? Or is this just a one time SREC $
