Samsung may have an actual fix. i would imagine that this is major concern to them because an stove or oven that turns on unexpectedly is fire risk, whether it is the stovetop or oven. Gents, I wound

I do know that Paul Cianciolo has worked with a few hams on this issue. I am not sure if he made any headway on it with Samsung, but I will see him later this week and I can ask. He reads most of the

A stove that turns on due to external events is broken. What they are telling you is that it is broken but they don't know how to fix it. Ed If it is new, tell the company that sold it to you, you wa

Even without social distancing, that can be a challenge at best. The neighbor probably bought some device or another that is making noise. Let's assume he bought a whole basement worth of commercial

In my experience, when companies feel there is some potential product liability, they generally move pretty quickly. When Eaton, for example, found that its AFCIs were tripping, they put engineers on

Allthough cranking the voltage past 13.8 volts probably won't damage anything, there is no guarantee to that, so just keep that n mind. Aslo, for something like server supply, this could well be a Cl

I think that it is highly unlikely that the panels themselves are creating noise. Paul Cianciolo, W1VLF, has a Solar Edge system at his house. He had found the usual wiring, grounding and optimizer i

It should be easy enough to look at the unit itself and see what frequency it uses. If it is not FCC certificated, then it could be high powered operating on any frequency. __________________________

This could be misleading. In the unlikely event that the panels themselves are generating noise, disconnecting them from the optimizers would remove them from a large length of common-mode radiator.

I am not sure that I would say that "Solar Edge" believes the panels are noisy. One engineer or installation technician may have said that, but I've never heard that from our high-level engineering c

You can do this, Tony, but it could be counterproductive. Under Part 15 rules, there are no specific emissions limits for radiated emissions for unintentional emitters below 30 MHz. All indications a

Yes, but those measurements might convince Solar Edge that you do not have a problem, which is exactly what we don't want What I recommend we do is to first have W1VLF use a probe and SDR to measure
