Hi all
Looking at installing a Multiplus 2 48/5000/70-50 with Pylontech UP5000 units. Reading the following it seems the minimum number of US2000C batteries is 4 for a 48/5000. It's going to be configured as a ESS system with no essential loads
I have a 4kw PV, AC tied which is an East / West split so it never goes above 2.2kw of PV at anyone time, however, at some point I may add another 2 * 375w panels to a MPPT charger
Is it ok to start off with 2 UP5000 batteries on this inverter and add a 3rd / 4th later?
By my calculation I need at least 3 UP5000's, each one's surge discharge is 4320 watts so 2 only gives 8640 watts where the inverter max surge is 10,000 watts
Edit. looks like my info for the 5000 was incorrect, looks like the surge discharge is actually 120-200 amps which is 5760w - 9600w, so, in theory, 2 UP5000's should be fine
Anyone installed this inverted with only 2 UP5000's to start with - any problems at all?
Thanks
