Technically no. A single-phase inverter will work on a 3 phase connection. This is thanks to the way meters instantaneously calculate grid consumption and solar production as a combination of all three phases.<\/p><p class=\"font_7\">Voltage rise related solar issues are one of the biggest problems we see with installed solar power systems. We always recommend using a 3 phase inverter when you have three-phase power. This will not only help with voltage rise, but it will mean you can install a larger inverter and a bigger solar system. Western Power may decline the initial application if trying to install a single phase inverter on a 3 phase connection.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-48511\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"11\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-48511\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-arrow-down\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><i class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened fas fa-arrow-up\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">Should I upgrade my solar system to a more powerful system?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-48511\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"11\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-48511\"><p>The Australian Government is changing legislation to reduce payment based on your contribution of energy to the grid.

If your solar power inverter is more than 3m away from the main switchboard, then locate the <strong>isolator<\/strong>. This will be located <strong>next to your inverter<\/strong>. If the inverter and switchboard are less then 3m away from each other, disregard this.<br><\/p>\n<p>Step 3: Move to your solar inverter and look for the switch marked <strong>PV Array and DC Isolator<\/strong>. In some cases, there may be two switches here. Be sure to turn them both <strong>off<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Step 4: Your inverter may have a switch marked <strong>Inverter Isolator<\/strong>. This is another switch that must be turned <strong>off<\/strong>. If you cannot find this, then ignore this step. <strong>At this stage, your solar PV system is now completely switched off. All lights and screens should be black. The system must be turned off for at least 5 minutes before being turned back on.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Step 5: In order to re-start your solar PV system, follow the reverse of this guide. Starting with turning the Inverter Isolator on (if applicable), then both the PV Array and DC Isolator buttons (if applicable), then the second isolator switch (if applicable), then finally the main Solar supply switch on the main switchboard.
