I have a building i am managing in polokwane with multiple rooms, i'm looking to re-wire each with its own sub meter so that each tenant can pay for the power in the area they use. Additionally, there is a solar system installed that i would like to have looked and and ensure it is compliant with the local regulations. I am currently living overseas and this makes the situation more difficulty.
Would like to go Hybrid, but mostly off grid. We use at most kw a month, with our bill being between R - R with eskom. Will probably need at least a 10kva converter, and 20kwh battery (must have a 10 yr warrenty) and enough solar panels to feed household. Will alsoneed to have a app for monitoring and a solar smart switch for the geyser. Lastly a maintenence plan and assistance with eskom registration to ensure I comply with the national regulations.
3x 6kw growatt inverters to be parallell'ed each inverter will have 2 strings of 6 panels . ah battery bank, 36 bifacial w solar panels. Equipment to be installed on the ground floor of the building.

Good day. I require 1-off double Type M power socket to replace 1-off single Type M socket (or the single socket to be spurred to a wall box). Additionally, I need another wall box spurred from an in-situ wall box (to garage motor power) Lastly, I need my garage flourescent light changed out with a LED type and brighter luminescence. thanks.
We are in a dual living house with 2 adjoined units. Unit 2 already has a Victron 3kw inverter with sufficient solar panels and lithium iron batteries. We wish to add a second Victron 3Kw inverter with related solar panels (installed on a flat roof) to unit 1. We already have the required lithium iron batteries currently supporting an invertor that is to be discarded. We hope to have the 2 Victron invertors connected in series to work together? Is this possible? We also need a compatible generator to allow us to go off-grid.
Flat is in a good and condition and the Building is well looked after by our Body Corporate/Caretaker.
Looking for information and pricing
I need solar system for a house in the rural area at Eastern Cape. There is no electricity in the whole area. The house is wired already and we are using generator currently. It's for basic needs such as Fridge, TV, lights, microwave, washing machine and of cause cellphone charging only. I'm looking for at least 3kw solar package(inverter, battery and 3 panels)
I am looking for a renewable energy solution to my 2 bedroomed house with the 2 external rooms with a capability of energizing A fridge , WiFI and TV. This must be a converter with a battery and charged by ESKOM and solar panels to harvest suns rays. It must be around 3 kw. Recommend the cheapest.
Good day, At my current property I have 1x Luxpower 5kw Hybrid Invertor, 1x Volta Stage 1 Battery and 10x panels (not sure of w). This is enough to power my geyser, borehole pump, pool pump and everything else and lasts during the night in summer (need to buy some elc during winter). Moving to a new place without a pool pump and borehole pump. Looking for a similar a setup, with either 8x panels or maybe a bigger battery (or two of the same depended on cost). What would the estimated cost be, including installation, parts, various certificates, sseg etc. This is for a normal, single story, slanted tiled roof. Location is in Brackenfell. Kind Regards de
