Deye/Solark famously bricked a bunch of inverters remotely not long back | |||||||||||||||||

I opened up all inverters here and disabled all remote access hardware physically. I'd rather not have a warranty than the risk of either seeing my critical hardware hacked or bricked by the manufacturer. And given the size of these (one is a 17KW unit) the risk of real damage to my home circuits and/or the feed is not imaginary, just rapidly turning it off and back on would already be a big problem, especially on a really sunny day. I try everything I can to not trip the breakers on the inverter around solar noon on sunny days because the amount of current is non-trivial, even on a 960V system. It will generate an absolutely spectacular arc. | |||||||||||||||||
