I am trying to understand pass through current.
Here is an example of a 3.6 kva (3900watt) inverter.
Would I be correct in saying that if the inverter is operating with the grid and solar power, then the current which can pass through the inverter continuous is 35 amps.
The 35 amps would be made up of the total power feeding the non essential and essential load and charging the battery?
The rated output power of 15.7 amps is the current which would be measured across the load terminals only.
Max output 18A, would be an AC-1 resistive load or AC-3 inductive load?
AC Output Data
Rated AC Output and UPS Power 3600W
Max. AC Power 3960W
Peak Power (off-grid) 2 times of rated power, 10 S
AC Output Rated Current 15.7A
Max AC Output Current 18A
Max Continuous AC Passthrough 35A
Power Factor 0.8 leading to 0.8 lagging
Output Frequency and Voltage 50/60Hz; 220/230/240Vac (single phase)
Grid Type Single Phase
Current Harmonic Distortion THD<3% (Linear load<1.5%)
