EG4 12000XP: specs and datasheet
The 12000XP is the higher-power model in EG4’s XP line. Without solar it delivers 12,000 W; the 15,000 W with-PV rating applies only to model IV-15000-XP-IN-01, so check the model number before planning around it. Two MPPTs accept up to 28,000 W of recommended solar, the datasheet recommends more than 400 Ah of battery per inverter, and standby draw is under 70 W. Up to 16 units can be paralleled.
UL 9540 is pending for model IV-15000-XP-IN-1.
