Hi All,
My install is about to start on a 12kW system here in sunny Orlando. (41X Canadian Solar 295W Mono panels, and 2x SMA 6.0 Inverters). I have looked around the forum to search for a suitable monitoring setup. I have read about Wattnode , TED Home Pro, Sense and CURB.
In my case, I have 2 panels to monitor. Main Outside Panels has 2x ACs, pool and then the Busbar is connected to the Sub panel. Sub panel will be getting 2x 30A breakers from the 2x Inverters. Subpanel also has other loads I would like to monitor e.g. Washer, Dryer, Air handlers, Oven, EV Charger etc.
What would be a reasonable solution with good data logging and accessibility w/o breaking the bank. Wattnode seemed like a good solution but will it integrate with my newer SMA sb 6.0-1sp-us-40 Inverters ?
Any help is greatly appriciated.
Also, if any pros here have an opinion about new SMA/Tigo Power+ solution please share your wisdom. A couple of my panels will see shading very early in the morning and late afternoon. I am thinking 3 ~ 5 panels in the morning and 4 Panels in the afternoon. Should I put TS4R-O optimizers ? or keep the whole system simple.
