[QUOTE="Jean de Florette, post: 529457, member: 35097"] Thanks johnb2713. Just to get this right; I can have a solar array - suitably sized for the primary intension of just running my hot water tank immersion heater, but the reality is that with the water up to temperature, the system will also run anything else on my domestic system up to the point where domestic load exceeds PV array capacity. By using a grid tied invertor (with grid earth tie) set to zero export rate, I can use my PV panel array up to the point where a large domestic demand can no longer be supported by the solar/battery array, at which point the grid supply takes over to support domestic load demand.
