Charging 3 Phase Multipluss ii

Hi,

I have 6 x Multipluss ii 5000KVA on a 3 phase off grid system with 27 solar panels and 3 phase 21KVA generator, when the generator is running at full load we get around 18kw from it and it will run a 10kw house usage and also charge the batteries around 100amp, i have 10 Pylontech batteries mixture of US5000, US3000, US2000. total of around 35KWH.

When no load is on the AC and the generator can use full power to charge the batteries via the Multipluss ii, i am only getting maximum 250 amp charge, 3 of the Multiplus are slaves, and i suspect they don't charge? Otherwise i am thinking the total rate of all six charging would be 6x70 420amp charge? Is this right? i know the batteries will take it as the Pylontech say they will take 500amp charge and i know i have had a 400amp discharge when our car is charging, via invertors and batteries.

hi what do you mean with 3 are slave?

If the pylontech’s are correctly wired and setup, the bms controls the maximum charge rate not the multi’s

Yes the BMS pylontech controls the charge, but why is it so low?

Maybe it depends on the SOC, i have 3x us5000 and they charge with about 40-50 amps max on 3 phase multiplus 2 3k at a 50-40% SOC while the mps can deliver a max of 105A

Hi

3 of the Multipluss are classed as slaves.

@davidtudor

Did you leave them at 70A on the MP2 default in settings when programming.

Confirm you do not have ESS assistant loaded?

Is weak AC enabled?

Do you have a GX? Confirm the Charge current is not capped in DVCC.

Is the input current limit up where it should be?

Validate your some inverters are not contributing to the charging theory with a DC clamp meter to check them.
