Frequently Asked Questions
What can the Rich Solar NOVA 12K power?
At 10,000 watts continuous in split-phase 120/240VAC, the NOVA 12K can handle any residential load including central air conditioning, electric ranges, dryers, well pumps, electric water heaters, EV chargers, and all standard lighting, electronics, and small appliances simultaneously.
How long will the Rich Solar NOVA 12K run on a full charge?
Runtime depends on battery bank size and total load. A 48V 400Ah lithium bank (approximately 19.2kWh) at a 5000W average load provides roughly 3 to 4 hours. With a properly sized solar array recharging the battery during daylight, continuous 24-hour operation is achievable.
Can the Rich Solar NOVA 12K be charged with solar panels?
Yes. The NOVA 12K accepts up to 12,000W of direct solar PV input through its integrated MPPT charge controller. Charging from grid or generator via the built-in AC charger is also supported.
Does the Rich Solar NOVA 12K arrive ready to use?
The unit ships fully assembled and requires connection to your solar array, battery bank, and AC distribution panel. Professional installation by a licensed electrician is required for split-phase 240VAC systems.
