That’s fuckin weird . Our 2018 vintage “ solar inverter “ happily takes 50Hz from the generator even on a sunny day with the panels supplying as well . It’s not a Chinese model though . Elon is going big a solar farms so who knows what will happen . I think the problems start when you try putting another generator in the system, they might synchronise, they might not. I gather generators do follow the each other to a certain extent, inverters maybe not so well. I remember using some sort of phase synchronisation display on ships to get everything in line before you bought the next one online, probably automatic these days. When the mains grid is the leader its ok, when a thousand inverters/ generators all try to follow each other because there is no leader... I've seen the results of power stations being out of phase, its not a good idea. If your standalone its probably not a problem. |

Yeah, when 2 generators are brought on line together that are not fully synchronised the results are "spectacular", in the case of diesel sets you can expect folded conrods and broken crankshafts as a minimum. |

tell us it is not about the money (being mindful of the need to be skeptical of anything from Oxfam) |
