Adjust scheduled charging current?

Hi,


Is there a way to set the charge rate (drawn from grid) in ESS scheduled charging?

When I activate scheduled charging the system starts to charge batteries at its maximum current capability and this exceeds the power of my contract, so the company meter opens the circuit because of maximum power exceeded.

I have two multipluses 5000 48 working in parallel and 21.6kWh batteries.

Thanks community!

@rrofes

Reduce the input current limit to be under the incoming limit.

Remeber to make it half as you have a parallel system, so two units draw that power.

Hi @alexandra! I think this was just the tip I needed: thanks!!!

So if the maximum power I can drain from the company is 9.2KW (40A @ 230V) then you suggest to put "input current limit" parameter to 20A? This sounds a bit strange to me because all parameters under "inverters" menu seem to be refered as a global for the whole system. Could you confirm? :-)

I answer myself: I made some tests and have seen that this parameter "input current limit" is for the whole system, so in my case to obtain a drain of 9200W I have to adjust it at 40A.
