Hello everyone,

 

In this project I would like to use solar edge inverter and one optimizer for 2 panels. 

I have attached a PV sol file 

i have issues with using 2 panels one optimizer , but works fine 1 x1

Hello Rakeshevergen

The Optimizers you did choose will not work as intended since they cannot handle the maximum power of two modules.

You have to choose a different power optimizer, then you will be able to configure several modules in series with one optimizer:

I hope you do not mind me joining this discussion, as I am facing a very similar challenge and would greatly appreciate any guidance from those with more experience in this area.

I am currently designing a PV system in PV*SOL using the following components:

  • Power optimizer: GNETEK Honeybee1600-HPLC — a dual-input optimizer capable of handling two solar modules per unit
  • Inverter: SAJ CHS2-50K-T6-X All-in-One Hybrid ESS — 50kW, 6 MPPT, three-phase, transformerless

My issue is that PV*SOL appears to assign one optimizer per module by default, which does not reflect the actual capability of the Honeybee1600-HPLC. I have reviewed the optimizer database settings but could not find any option to specify that this particular unit supports two modules per optimizer.

Could anyone advise whether there is a setting or workaround in PV*SOL that allows the software to correctly recognize a dual-input power optimizer? Any guidance on how to configure this properly would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.
