What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Installation should be carried out by a qualified, certified electrician. The included 63A CT is stated to suit a main circuit breaker rated 63A or below. A 120A CT is stated to be purchased separately for breakers above 63A. The listing describes Solarbank 4 Pro compatibility in the title and feature bullets, but its FAQ also names Solarbank Max AC, Solarbank 4 E5000 Pro, and Solarbank 1, 2 and 3, with CT-port and monitoring limitations on models 1, 2 and 3. Check compatibility and supported functions for the exact system before buying.
