G'day all,
I'm new here and new to this field and have questions I need answers to.
I currently have a 3kw solargrid tie system as follows.
3kw solar panels that put out open circuit voltage of456v and short circuit current of 8.75a.
The inverter is a Solax SL-TL-3000 and I don't believe batteries can be added to it.
I just got myself a 150ah 24v Lifepo4 battery pack and want to use this to suppliment my household power and therefore reduce my power bills.
What I would like is an inverter/charger that during the day charges up the battery and when the battery is full then feeds the grid. Then at night the battery supplies power to the house until its used and then the grid takes over and I would like this to be automatic, ie set and forget.
I don't know much about what inverter/chargers are available, but my budget would be about $1000.00AUD
Also when I was enquiring about one on ebay (that turned out not to be suitable) the seller said that in Australia you need an AS4777 certification. Is that true, or can you get away with it if they don't know if you know what I mean.
I'm an electronics technician, so I have very good technical knowledge and skills, so don't be afraid to overwhelm me with the details.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
