Hi Victron professionals and enthusiasts,
In order to provide correct information to my question, my system consists of:
1 x MP2 5000/48 1 phase setup
Smartshunt
Carlo Gacazzi ethernet power meter EM24
1x Smartsolar 250/100
Cerbo
8 kWh LiFePO4 battery controlled by a CANbus communicating Batrium BMS.
12 + 5 x 365Wp AEG glass/glass panels on a SMA STP5.0
10x 365Wp AEG glass/glass panels, each connected at a Enphase IQ7+ on one phase.
Yesterday, I removed 10 pcs Enphase IQ7+ micro inverters from the panels and connected the panels in series over two separated strings of each 5 pcs 365Wp panels in parallel tot he Smartsolar 250/100 (5s2p)
So far so good and all works. Smartsolar shows up and is charging a little bit (no sun here at the moment).
My question is: since the power comes from the DC battery side now, will the Multiplus2 feed in the energy coming from the Smartsolar when batteries are full?
Or do I need to install the ESS assistant?
I want to operate as long as possible without the ESS because this ESS mode uses more power that a passive standby backup system and also wears the batteries unnecessary unitl feed-in is not paid anymore by the grid-operator.
