I'm through my 7th 80 cell pack out of 14 and looking towards getting an inverter. I have the same charge controller as Peter and Mike (PCM60X), not that it matters. I'm in the US and my plan is to power my house or at least most of it one day. My packs are 176.5 Ah and built closely to Mikes or Peters. Will the 4000w inverter be enough to power a house?
I'm trying to cover everything to give a good representation of what it will look like built to my house. It will be modeled after Peters and with guidance from my father in law who is an industrial electrician. I'll be running lights, dishwasher, air conditioner at times, some fans and the other small electronics including tvs, Xbox, etc. I will also have a stove, microwave, toaster, etc.
I'll also be tied to the grid.
I'm not completely clueless so I know that I can't have all of this on the same load and that thiswont work to power my whole house.
I guess my question is, given the information, what's the best inverter to start with and use for my 48v system that will be? I suppose I could also run them in parallel worst case scenario.
Thanks for any answers.
