Was able to successfully get it all going correctly. I ordered a big UFO battery & it works pretty good. Changed from the nissan leaf battery that was only 66 ah this one is 200 ah.

I did a test this evenin when the trees was above where the sun was. Panels was putting out about 150 r so watts . My battery had plenty juice so i turned on the 2 ton mini split once it got where it sounded it was cranking out the heat i turned on the ac disconnect to the Solar edge. Already spoke with schneider & they said it would work flawless i just was a bit weary. I just need to tweak the settings some to get it so if Arduino fails it will frequency shift to shut the juice from the solar edge and also want a redundant switch if the battery is fully charged and it senses current still being pumped to the battery shut down the ac couple with a relay.
