12kva inverter burns hours after purchase
Meanwhile, Legit.ng recently reported that a Nigerian man shared a video of a N1.2m 12kVA inverter that burnt hours after purchase because the installer connected it to high-voltage solar panels without checking the max PV on the nameplate.
He warned people to always read the nameplate, use 80% PV, and avoid overloading/overvoltage, the main causes of burnt inverters.
