Hello,
To protect the battery bank (Lead Acid) from too fast discharge - currents too high for the battery capacity - I have set some conditions to start Generator (which in my case is the grid). The setting that I wanted most is:
The issue that I'm having is that I have just realised that this current is not truly the Battery Current but rather the Multiplus Input current. During the day, this value is the SUM of MPPT output and battery current. My system was triggering generator during the day when I want to take advantage of direct solar use (high loads).
As a workaround, I have set quiet hours and defined 2 values, but this is not ideal since we can have the washing machine working very nicely with 2kw from the MPPTs and suddenly a cloud comes and makes the system draw a lot of current from a small bank.
Is there a way with assistants to start generator from the true battery current? Could this option be changed so we can subtract the MPPT production?
