I’ve read that Victron inverters will shut down after a couple of failed restarts and I saw that this weekend when I mistakenly left the heat pump on and drained the battery.
In the morning when the solar chargers started up, the Multiplus II tried to restart a couple of times and then shut down. I'm sure this is because the heat pump remembered its last running state and would also attempt to restart, dragging the battery pack back down.
The system remained offline during the day. Late in the afternoon I asked a neighbor to pull the cutoff switch on the heat pump and, to my surprise, the inverter instantly restarted without having to manually reset it. (The batteries had also fully recharged.)
Does anyone know why the inverter would do that rather than require a manual reset? I am glad that it did, I am just curious why. It’s as if the inverter was monitoring what loads were attached to it, recognized the “problem load” had been removed, and then restarted.
