Battery discharged to 47.63V (average 2.97V per cell) because inverter didn't stop discharging the battery.
(Still trying to figure out the Deye inverter low voltage disconnect settings, if you can help, I made a post about that here).
Cannot charge from grid because grid not yet connected.
After disconnecting load, according to BMS, just the inverter by itself was pulling 1A (so I switched off "discharging" in the JK-BMS
because I don't want the inverter further discharging the batteries all night.
This shut down the inverter, obviously.
Battery: EVE 280AH 16S 48V
Inverter: Deye 8K
Questions (feel free to only answer one or two of the questions):
1. I assume the inverter discharged its capacitors when it shut down, since the shut down occurred at the JK-BMS, so that means I need to recharge the inverter caps again before I restart the system, or would it be OK to just enable discharging mode again in the JK-BMS?
2. @LydMekk posted here to turn off "Activate Battery" to reduce the charge to a trickle if you have extremely low batteries. Is that needed in this instance?
(with no load, cells have recovered to an average of 3.000V).
3. Next time if this unfortunate event occurs, I assume it's better to manually throw a breaker to switch off the inverter from the battery, rather than toggling the discharge to off in the JK-BMS, so that I'm not needing to recharge the caps in the inverter, plus I guess it's bad for the JK-BMS to be switching off discharging?
