Well thereās one thing we can be certain of, in 50-60 days I still wonāt have PTO.If I'm right, in about 50-60 days you will see the dip early in the morning again

I did it slightly differentlyā I used the Stop System from the main screen at 8 pm last night and it also worked. Normally it would have done the self test today at 2:10 pm, and itās now 3 pm and thereās been no self test stoppage.Well thereās one thing we can be certain of, in 50-60 days I still wonāt have PTO.
I just use my PC to log into the IP
Good to know the stop system also work!! I avoided the stop system because they will also stop my Tesla 3.8 inverter. Using the disable allow me to reset the pw+ 7.6 inverter without affecting the 3.8I did it slightly differentlyā I used the Stop System from the main screen at 8 pm last night and it also worked.

We didnāt exactly solve the problem of daily shutdowns, but itās a reasonable workaround! I might do it again a bit after 9 pm tonight since during the short period that itās rebooting weāre drawing from the grid, and after 9 pm the grid prices here in northern CA are the lowest. Yeah, I know, weāre talking pennies, but after dishing out all that money for a solar roof, I want to send as little as possible to PG&E
This is now +2 days after purposely trying to cause a daily restart. 1:50 on the dot as expected. Cloudy day, but itās there.Missed my high-noon mark, had to grab some sushi lunch
Triggered a reboot via the disabled button in installer mode at 1:31 today. Will test tomorrow.
Finally have a clear sunny day except for a bit of cloud in the late evening in the far horizon where the sun was....This is now +2 days after purposely trying to cause a daily restart. 1:50 on the dot as expected. Cloudy day, but itās there.
Will manually disable the system tonight at 6:30pm, snd then see you all in 60 days ! .
Dang! Beautiful looking chart. What size is your system? 90kw daily is glorious !Finally have a clear sunny day except for a bit of cloud in the late evening in the far horizon where the sun was....
Interesting my system didn't reach peak of 11.7 (where both inverters would be clipping). Where some of my intermittent cloudy days I reach that peak noon to ...2pm ish. Wasn't too hot either mid 80s at most...
The big dip at 6:30 is my daily reset. I have to reset when the west side panel still have some decent generation or one of my Problem string won't wake up in the morning
I am hoping to hit 22.8kw peak some day with perfect conditions, have hit like 22.4kw once and 180kwh one day.Dang! Beautiful looking chart. What size is your system? 90kw daily is glorious !
15.64kw with a pw+7.6 and a standalone 3.8. my local area restrict interconnect size and even this had to go through exception approval. The 1.4 DC/AC ratio was the max allow or so I thought during design phase.... (Although I found out recently pw+inverter allow up to 1.7)I am hoping to hit 22.8kw peak some day with perfect conditions, have hit like 22.4kw once and 180kwh one day.
How did you get 15.64kW out of 11.4kW of inverters?15.64kw with a pw+7.6 and a standalone 3.8.
46 panels = 15.64kw. oversize the panels to inverters to the 1.4 ratio. Oversizing is pretty common. 11.4x1.4 =15.96How did you get 15.64kW out of 11.4kW of inverters?
Ok, on Saturday night around 11PM, I decided to try a full Stop System (via the Web UI) *AND* flip the breaker off *AND* turn off the switch on the Power Wall. I was even prepared to pull the e-stop jumper out of my inverter, but didn't have a proper tool, and to be honest was a little scared of doing that.I did it slightly differentlyā I used the Stop System from the main screen at 8 pm last night and it also worked.

Oh, I thought this discussion was about AC kW and kWh.46 panels = 15.64kw. oversize the panels to inverters to the 1.4 ratio. Oversizing is pretty common. 11.4x1.4 =15.96
huh, I thought I was replying to Bryan995's post about what system I have, but looking back i see it was quoting h2ofun post... sorry about the confusionOh, I thought this discussion was about AC kW and kWh.

A little maybe, but not a lot as others are trying to sayInverters sometime can go a little over spec rating... your 2x11.4 maybe able to hit 23 or 23.2 if everything are perfect
Guess it does take some cloud edge effect to make both of my inverters clip. A bit reverse of yesterday, a little cloud at sunrise then cloud less the rest of the day. Vs cloud near sunset yesterday. But overall the curve was lower all along the curve... Peak was 10.7 vs 11.1 yesterdayWild !
The most Iāve ever seen out of my 12.24 system was 11.6 (yesterday). Had just washed the panels the day before and that day has lot of scattered clouds. So lots of cloud edge effect. Looks like it sustained 11kw+ for a few 5 min intervals. Normal peak is something like 10.2kW.
No restart today after the forced one yesterday. All good now. We did it! Ha

How much did you end up generating? We have clouds today and I only got 63kwhShaping up to be a glorious (restart free) hazy, yet perfect day.
71.1, not terrible !How much did you end up generating? We have clouds today and I only got 63kwh
