Losing battery bank power. We have been off grid for 6yrs, last year we added 12 panels to our less than 3 kw system. We are near or at 5 kw now. We have 24, 2v gel batteries which gives us 48v system. Outback 80 charge controller and xantrex inverter. We also upgraded our generator to a 5 kw genie. In their last 4 month we have been walking up to 47.2 VDC, Usually its 48.4 VDC or higher. Does anyone have any ideas0 ·November 22 -

Hello. You commented on one of my threads. Was wondering if you could explain to me why you are saying that my green wires are a bad practice. And I’d also like to get your help trying to figure out where my problems are. Thanks in advance.0 ·November 9-
mcgivorSorry for the delay in responding, green wires are recognized as ground potential , with a yellow trace in some durisdictions to help with color (colour) blindness. The current carrying capacity for a given gauge or cross sectional area, regardless of color remains the same, but it is primarily for the safety of others who may work on the system in the future. Just standards which are adhered to in the electrical trade, we watch out for one another, hope you understand.

Hi Fred. I am intending to AC couple batteries to my 3 APSystems QS1s and I was wondering if you were able to successfully do so with yours. I’m grid-tied but can use an automatic transfer switch ideally. Would you by chance be available to chat about your system over the phone? 330-352-70440 ·November 18 -
