My system has 2 SolarEdge inverters. The first one went down in January with a 18XB7 error. They said a replacement was required. In late April they installed the replacement that failed immediately with the same error. Still waiting for the replacement for the replacement. Saturday my second inverter went down with the same error. I thought maybe there might be soon the environment causing the problem so I started researching and discovered that SolarEdge used defective capacitors on the vintage inverters that I have. So the majority of these inverters were gong to fail in what looks like 2 years.
I believe Tesla and SolarEdge knew the expected failures and knowingly took no proactive actions to mitigate customer impacts. They are telling me that they will go they the same procedure which has had my system down for 8 months. I have attempted to escalate but have had no success. I would like to see both inverters replaced with non SolarEdge inverters which do not have known issues. Yes I realize that these inverters are not just plug n play.
Does any have any suggestions on how I can get this resolved?
Thank you.
