    Solar dump to ground

    I have a powmr 10kw sunsmart. Working on upgrading to the solark. I spoke to powmr and they told me that in order to prevent the batteries from overcharging id have to turn off solar. Avoid powmr

    Solar dump to ground

    If thats not how electricity works then why do we use grounding rods if not for their ability to dump excess power in an emergency. Clearly the ground can be used as a dump however the only way i invision it would b to have a device that read the voltage of my batteries and upon reaching a...

    Solar dump to ground

    Hows it going. Im off grid and dont have a desire to have to monitor the charge of my batteries which would be required to setup a load dump. Im wondering if there is a way to dump excess solar energy to a grounding rod instead of the grid once my batteries are topped off

    Issue with JBD BMS and discharging

    All three batteries run to a bus bar which is then ran to the inverter. Im determing soc by the display on the battery and occasionally thru the pc program which gives the same soc as the display

    Batteries are being overcharged by All-in-one Inverter

    Im not positive im over voc or v at mppt. I live in san diego so the coldest it gets here is 40 and thats only at night. That puts my voc at 48.4. Ill agree im to close for comfort but their customer support is horrible which means ur kinda fd should u have any of the issues i had. I would never...

    Batteries are being overcharged by All-in-one Inverter

    All the cells within each battery are within 0010mv and w bms or setting the settings will still lead to overcharging of batteries when used w solar. This Powmr has been a nightmare. Their tech support is awful. He continually told me to use the apl (or opposite cant remember rn) setting which...

    Looking to upgrade

    Its a gen 1. Its very common for it to overcharge. And the issues with it randomly changing hertz on its own occasionally also isnt user error but i appreciate ur valuable input

    Looking to upgrade

    i need a 120/240v 60hz all in one hybrid inverter and would like 8-12kw usa model. Im also looking for it to not need much user management after its set (Ive install a powmr 12 for a friend and am constantly having to fix it/ work on it). My eyes are on victron or solark but also like solar mpp...

    Batteries are being overcharged by All-in-one Inverter

    Another question. My inverter will randomly change to 50hz on its own when the generator is started but only occasionally. Ive taken reading and while yes it will start at 50 sometimes itll very quickly climb to 60hz yet the inverter wont switch back any idea how i can resolve that?

    Batteries are being overcharged by All-in-one Inverter

    Correct but 22amp and 500v is 11000 watts. But according to the documention that was shared each input can only handle 5500w

    Batteries are being overcharged by All-in-one Inverter

    Need clarification So each pv input can handle up to 500v and up to 22amps but only 5500w? Maybe thats y ive been having issues? I cant imagine so since other users have had the same over charging issues but itd b nice if it was the issue. Ive been considering changing it to a 5 series 2...

    Batteries are being overcharged by All-in-one Inverter

    Have u had to put the extra loads on the new inverter? To me it just seems like a bad onboard mppt which just has no idea what to do with the excess power.

    Batteries are being overcharged by All-in-one Inverter

    Ill take a picture later on as im not home right now. I do have that software and it communicated fine. I dont believe its a bms or settings problem since even without the bms it would still overcharge even if i set the absorb and bulk at 55 it would still go past to 59.9

    4 MWh SRNE ASF48100U200-H 10kw.

    I figured out setting 4 is dependent on the under voltage alarm setting. Setting 4 wont go higher or equal to the voltage of the undervoltage. Just incase that was still unresolved

    Batteries are being overcharged by All-in-one Inverter

    Also do you know if each pv jnput can handle the 500v 22amps? I have 10 400w q cells in series about to add 10 more in parallel to that (would b more happy about that if it would stop over charging via solar but its kinda needed) the v and a at mpp would b 371.3v and 21.54. That setup would just...

    Batteries are being overcharged by All-in-one Inverter

    First I went fast assuming the video could b paused. Now i know otherwise. Kinda weird. My bms is disabled right now. I believe it was on sla. I had a lot of issues getting the bms to even b recognized on my inverter. Ultimately i had to set my batteries in pylon and used CAN and UZE. The only...

    Batteries are being overcharged by All-in-one Inverter

    Tried what u said. Still over charging without bms. Ive told it to not charge it to 59.9v (56.4v is what i told it to do to b exact) and it still does it. So maybe now u could offer some advice rather then read the manual or contact the manufacture because powmr is garbage. Ill include a video...
