Tigo TS4-A-O review | Optimization, Monitoring & Rapid Shutdown

TS4-A-O: https://signaturesolar.com/tigo-ts4-a-o-optimizer-rapid-shutdown-15a-700w-1500vul-1000viec-mc4-1-2m-cable/?ref=bkpkbxde In this episode, we take a look at the TS4–A-O optimizer monitoring solution and rapids shut down solution from TIGO. These are solar modules that are supposed to be mounted to each panel then connected as designed panel array. They serve many functions, including rapid shut down monitoring and optimization. The optimization function works without any additional components out of the box, but the rabbit shut down, requires another module, and the monitoring solution also requires another module plus a subscription. Are these modules worth it? Let's find out. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Timecode 0:00 - Unboxing TS4 optimizer 0:22 - Tigo TS4 quick start 3:40 - Shaded panels 5:32 - TS4 Installation 8:12 - Preliminary results 17:05 - Is it worth it ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tigo TAP is required for rapid shutdown and Tigo CCA is required for monitoring with TS4-A-O. Optimization is a Flex MLPE function available as an integrated modular junction box base (TS4-O) or as an add-on unit (TS4-A-O). Design using unequal string lengths, mixed orientations, or areas of mismatch. Install in shaded areas with a reduced setback ratio. In addition to optimization, the TS4-A-O enables module-level monitoring, and rapid shutdown in compliance with NEC 2014, 2017, and 2020. Optimization Monitoring Rapid Shutdown Features and Benefits Suitable for up to 700W solar modules The higher performance optimizer with Predictive IV Technology (PIV) The ONLY optimizer with selective deployment Includes the benefits of Safety & Monitoring Meets US NEC rapid shutdown requirements Optimizes right out of the box Shade and age tolerance to maximize lifetime yield Works wirelessly with the TAP & CCA 25-year warranty ------------------------------------------------------------------- Contact us: [email protected] Join the Discord group: https://discord.gg/RvPZFcGwQX Links included in the description may include affiliate links to retailers ------------------------------------------------------------------- #solar #solarpanels #solarpanel #offgrid #energystorage #solarenergy
