Frequently Asked Questions

FoxCloud is a client monitoring software for photovoltaic power plants. It can interact with power plants remotely and wirelessly to obtain operating parameters such as power generation capacity, power generation revenue, equipment status, and equipment information.

The majority of homeowners will typically charge and discharge their batteries every day. However, it isn’t necessary to charge it daily. This depends on how much stored electricity you’re anticipating using.

Another factor to consider is the size of your household. A larger house that uses a significant more electricity on a daily basis is going to need to charge their battery more frequently than a smaller family home that doesn’t use nearly as much.

The number of Fox Ess batteries required to power your home depends on the amount of time you intend on solely powering your home through your battery storage system.

On average, if your energy usage is around 9kWh a day with a 120 square metre house size then minimum 8.2kwh Fox Ess battery is recommended to power your home.

If your household’s electricity usage and house size is significantly larger, you may require upto a maximum 28.7kwh Fox Ess storage batteries in order to completely power your home.

All home battery systems are primarily designed to store excess produced solar energy but you can also use your home battery system to store cheap off peak electric to use during on peak hours to reduce your overall home running costs. This increases your rates of return even further.

It all depends on the charge and discharge capacity of the of the Fox Ess inverter. If the inverter is a 5kw hybrid/AC then it wil have the ability to charge your battery system at 5kw per hour.

Fox Ess batteries require internet connection (over wired Ethernet or your home Wi-Fi) or a cellular connection to receive software updates and to communicate with the mobile app for energy monitoring.

A reliable connection is required to provide new product features over time. If its connection is temporarily lost, the Fox Ess battery can continue to operate with its most recent settings, but it should not be installed in a location without internet or cellular service.

It can be installed without internet but it is not ideal.

The Fox Ess system can provide a limit power back up, in reality around 13 amps maximum. Some dedicated circuits i.e gas boiler supply, deciated sockets or home office is ideal and will provide, as long as there is power in the battery, during a power cut.
