Page 16: Installing The Ct Coil
3.5. Installing the CT Coil The CT coil is one of the most important parts of the Sunsynk Parity inverter. This device reduces the power of the inverter to prevent feeding power to the grid. This feature is also known as "Zero Export". - Page 17 IMPORTANT !!! See below for information to determine if the CT coil is connected the correct way around: 1. First of all, ensure that the CT is measuring some power flowing into the house/inverter by switching off the "Time Of Use" setting and disconnecting the PV panels.
-
Page 18: Connecting The Pv
3.5. Connecting the PV The inverter has two built-in MPPT controllers, MPPT 1 and MPPT 2, which can connect two arrays of photovoltaic panels in parallel with a maximum current of 18 Amp (as shown below). Before connecting to PV modules, install a separate DC circuit breaker between the inverter and PV modules. -

Page 27: Battery Discharge Page
Shutdown causes the inverter to enter standby mode. It will not completely shut down the inverter. The total shutdown is below 19V. The voltage displayed on the Sunsynk Parity Inverter will vary depending on whether the inverter is charging or discharging the batteries. -
Page 28: Setting Up A Lithium Battery
State of Charge Bulk: Involves about 80% of the recharge in which the charger current is held constant (in a constant current charger), and voltage increases. The properly sized charger will give the battery as much current as it will accept up to charger capacity (25% of battery capacity in Amp hours) Absorption: Remaining charge equals 20%, approximately. - Page 29 NOTE Some types of lithium battery the BMS cannot be controlled by Sunsynk inverter. In this case, treat the battery as a lead-acid type and set the charging and discharging protocol following the battery manufacturer specification.
-
Page 30: Program Charge / Discharge Times Page
IMPORTANT When not using communications between battery and inverter, never overcharge your battery bank concerning current and voltage. Many lithium batteries are limited to 100A, some are lower and some are higher. Ensure that voltage and current specifications provided by the battery manufacturer are followed. - Page 31 Concerning the detailed figure above: 1. Tick this box to do not export power back to the grid (the CT coil will detect power flowing back to the grid and will reduce the power of the inverter only to supply the local load).
-
Page 32: Grid Supply Voltage And Frequency - Grid Supply Page
Example: This is a zero export power to the grid example. Power is supplying the non-essential load and maximum power of the inverter is set as 8kW. The inverter is connected to the grid, but no export is performed. It allows small amounts of power to flow from the grid (set as 100W in this case) to prevent any backflow. -
Page 33: Advanced Settings For Paralleling Inverters
Set the Modbus SN for paralleling The Sunsynk parity inverter can be wired standalone or where more power is required it can be connected in parallel either single or 3 phase configuration. The maximum number of 8.8kW inverters that can be paralleled in a single phase utility grid is three (26.4kW) and the maximum number that can be paralleled... - Page 34 IMPORTANT Be careful with bus bar sizes. The CT coils used to limit export power must only be connected to the master. Therefore, if six inverters are paralleled, three CT coils will be required. Connect a RJ45 communication cable between each inverter; the order is not important since both sockets are the same, so there is no IN or OUT.
- Page 35 If you need further help please refer to the Sunsynk website where you will find training videos and frequently asked questions www.sunsynk.com. From here you can also update the inverter operating system if required, but generally, if the inverter is working fine we recommend do not upgrade...

Most wind turbines are three-phase PM type. Therefore, either a wind turbine controller or a direct connection to the MPPT via a simple protection circuit will be required. Dump Load: When the battery (battery bank) is fully charged and the water turbine/wind turbine/solar module is still generating power, a dump load will provide the electricity a path to flow. - Page 39 A nice feature is when the batteries are fully charged and the inverter is still producing energy from the PV or the turbine it is possible to direct the energy to another load such as a water heater.
