Subject: [RE-wrenches] SMA inverterters with SPS

Good morning folks!
Been interesting to see that both SMA and Fronius inverters ar no longer 
available thru our normal distribution channels.  All their residential models 
seem to be unavailable with our distributors not having any idea on return to 
availability.  Anyone know why both of these string inverter options seem to 
have evaporatedare they gone for good?
WE have a client looking to do a system with 3 - 5kW inverters with the SPS.  
The SPS being the feature they are after.  Anyone have insight into this 
availability issue or know where to get some of those inverters? Mike Mahon?
Would appreciate any insight.

Thanks.
Sunny Regards,

Re: [RE-wrenches] SMA inverterters with SPS

2022-12-12 Thread Dave Tedeyan via RE-wrenches 
I have heard from my distributor that SMA is in the process of ending the
-41 line and will be coming out with a new line of inverter that is
UL1741-SB certified. I've been told SMA says Q2 next year is when the new
line will be available, but my vendor says that it always slips. This is a
bummer for anyone in NY where the utilities are going to require UL1741-SB
starting Jan1. So it seems for most of next year, our options are basically
Enphase and SolarEdge...

Cheers,
Dave

Been waiting on a Fronius for a 3.8kW for 2 months have an older system that 
had a low voltage array that is below the strike voltages of their 
“replacement” inverters…… Ahhhn the joys of Solar installation.
