Hey Carl,

I suspect you know that the European version of 
the Sunny Island is a different animal than the 
US version.  Which are you working with?  I don't 
think the US version even supports 3ø yet - 
though the next version will - which is now being 
worked on will.  They say next year - we'll see.

And why not put SMA inverters on the system so 
they can talk - the Magnetek and SI won't work 
together on charge control.

We just installed a stacked set of SIs with a 
Sunny Boy feeding into the mini-grid - love it! 
AC coupling is the way to go!

Tell me more of what you are trying to accomplish.

Best,

Jeff Clearwater
