Has anyone had any success with electricians connecting 'self installed' hybrid inverters to the home?
I already have a grid-tie system with two Sungrow inverters coupled to a (total) 8KW array. They are installed on the outside garage wall. The hybrid inverter is installed on the other side of the wall(not weather proof). I've built a 48V 30kwh battery bank to connect to the hybrid inverter.
I had an electrician come round today to quote to have it connected but he asked who installed it (me) and he said "no way". Although the install may meet regulations, unless the installer is licensed there is little to nochance of having it connected and certified. I would require a solar/battery installer to install the whole system.
Has anyone else had these troubles and if so, how did you get around them?
I'm based in Melbourne, Australia.
Thanks in advance.
