I repaired my inverter with all the new parts, new mosfets board, new driver board, I even put ALL the new boards on it, it turns on well, but going from 1400w approximately it will overload, what could it be? it is a 15k power jack. Thank you for you help
Sounds like the DIP switch settings did not get copied from the old boards to the new boards. Depending on the board versions, the DIP switches will either be on the control board (10.3+), or on the "charger" board (v7[?], v8, v9). Being a 15kw inverter, it probably has the big "output" board; the DIP switches should be on that. Copy the on/off settings from the boards removed from your inverter to the one currently in it.
take pictures and upload them here so we are able to determine the version number.
Thank you
All the boards you see there are new, the mosfets boards too. Could it be that the mosfets are wrong?

No, those are the correct MOSFETs (NCEP60H15) for a 24v inverter.

Yellow circle: This is the problem: these DIP switches are still in the factory reset position. I do not have the instructions for setting these up (Sean may), but you can copy the up-down positions of the switches from the old boards that used to be in the inverter (assuming you still have them).

I don't know the version, I think it's v9
I don't know the version, I think it's v9
Photos aren't clear enough for me to read the version number on the boards, but it looks like a v9.
EDIT: Haha, you didn't specify in the initial post that it was a U-POWER inverter. That's just a Power Jack with a double-overspec label printed on the top...on a Power Jack which is 2-3 times over-rated for the actual output ;-). A PJ 15KW unit would be in a huge box...but a U-POWER 15KW is basically a rebranded 8KW PJ.

Yes, I have the old board, but I would not know how to pass that information from the old to the new.
Renamed the topic and moved to the appropriate subforum.
Look at the old board: the little switches will be in various up-down states. Copy these up-down states to the new board (you may have to break/remove a small piece of yellow tape over the DIP switches.)
It would help if you post a photo of the switches on the old board, and then of the switches on the new board after you've copied the up/down positions to verify.
Please note that setting these switches incorrectly will NOT damage your inverter, though it may overload too soon--or too late. Getting them correctly set is the best way to get the longest possible life out of the U-POWER inverter.

Okay. I already saw how it is, I will.
Umm...not too clear what's going on there, could you clarify a bit? Looks like a forum button or two might have gotten in the way 😁.
Are you saying that after changing the switches, it still overloads too low?

It works well with the blower on low, I put it on hi and it does
