Can I just confirm they are H1 G2 (generation 2)?

The parallel facility is only available on the G2 inverter which was released earlier this year (as well as the H3, KH series), the earlier generation of H series does not support parallel operation.

Yep that’s an original H1 (generation 1), they don’t do parallel running.

Probably a lot of messing but you if you install them in series with a split load (i.e. 2 consumer units) you can get them to work separately without fighting between them. I’ve copied an old post that shows an installation. (The red wire is a link from CT2 on the larger inverter to the secondary to measure it’s feed).

I would personally upgrade your inverters to the H1-6 gen2 found here https://theecosupermarket.co.uk/product ... rter-gen2/

If interested in how it works I've made these videos:
