Simply checking the ratings of the exist service equipment at an installation is sufficient to know what the minimum AIC rating of the equipment must be.

It has been online for 2 years now. <br><br>Using Dekka / East Penn D-series batteries which we had custom built to our specs. <br><br>A notable difference is we have 100 kW diesels and 60 kW inverter capacity in a 120/208 SMA inverter config (stepped up to 14.4 kV distribution). The system works really well and it currently 100% uptime for last 12 months. This is an unattended system we are onsite to maintain every 2 months. No renewable input at this time. <br><br>The sizing you have reported seems out of ratio. ~ 20 kW of charging power into a 400 kWh battery bank ie C/5. Depending on the loads the gen is carrying along with charging that could further reduce available charge capacity. That generator is going to have to run for a very long time to charge that battery. We call this the big battery blunder syndrome - which has caused many failures of such scale of system. <br><br>Kevin<br><br>-----Original Message-----<br>From: re-wrenches-bounces@lists.re-wrenches.org [mailto:re-wrenches-bounces@lists.re-wrenches.org]On Behalf Of Mac Lewis<br>Sent: March 11, 2014 7:27 AM<br>To: RE-wrenches<br>Subject: Re: [RE-wrenches] Huge battery bank recommendation<br><br><br>To clarify, this is for an off-grid application, 4 Sunny Islands, 30kW generator.<br><br><br>On Tue, Mar 11, 2014 at 9:16 AM, August Goers < august@luminalt.com> wrote:<br><br><br>Mac, <br><br>Is this for an off grid system?
