When the utility goes down the two
inverters for the solar switch over to back up mode and feed two
separate dedicated loads panels. One panel works fine and all of the dedicated loads connected to it work as normal. Within the other panel there
are just two loads, some lights and some sump pumps that are connected to a controller. <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif">Before
the pumps will operate the controller that monitors
their operation also monitors the utility voltage so that the pumps don't see too high or low of voltage from the utility (or back up power). In normal utility mode the controller works fine. However when the system switches to backup mode the controller trips off. <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif">
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"> The voltage window for the pump controller is relatively narrow,
however I'm not sure if that is the problem. The pump(s) will surge to a
maximum of 20A at 240V for about a second and then hold between 7A-14A
respectively. Which is within the operating window of the inverter (6600w surge 25A max continuous). <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif">
I connected the controller load to my Eguage and logged the controllers
usage both while connected to the utility and while connected to the
battery back up. The data while connected to the utility is pretty
typical with no irregularities. However when I switch to the battery
side my logging disappears (measuring second by second and the results
only show minutes). I believe that this is due to the inverter shutting
down momentarily and then the Eguage needs to reboot. In all of the
starting and stopping of the inverter I do see that the voltage spikes
to L1-149V and L2-150V together with 299V L1&L2.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"><br></div>
</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif">Has anyone else encountered this problem before or something similar that may be able to offer some advice? I had an issue once before and added a 50mf capacitor to the line to smooth out the surge but this was for my home experiment and not a professional installation. Any luck with power line conditioners?
