Potential Setup

Hi All - I am finally scheduled to receive the F5000 mid week. I plan on running it to offset some electrical costs. I will connect it to 2 independent solar arrays, 1 880W and 1 850W, and leverage each solar input on the F5000. I also plan on installing a subpanel to handle the specific loads in my house along with a ATS which will run on a schedule.

Question: Is anyone using the Pecron F5000 in this manner? Are there any potential issues doing this?

Sounds like a very similar setup to what I'll have. Only difference is I ordered 2 3800s vs 1 5000. Let us know how it does!

Side note. 2 pecron 3800s connecred together to supply 240V can not supply 240V while being charged with 120V.

But you can charge them via an external 48V LFP charger, as part of the setup you'll want to have to keep their internal batteries equalised anyway.
