    Connecting JK-BMS to Inverter - Any major advantage?

    Nah, I am just a random guy that stumbled upon the change log and saved it just in case it contained useful information.

    Killed a cell Docan lifepo4 48v home bank

    You are destroying your top balance by balancing at 3.2 volts and under. Some of your cells, not only 16th, appear bulged, too bulged for 15 days old cells. No idea why you have killed two cells, or three I cannot remember now, and always the most positive.

    Solar Assistant Wish list, Bugs and Issues.

    I remember you explaining why it was not possible to use your closed-loop communication with your batteries and use SA to monitor them at the same time. So I wonder what has changed since then? Care to explain. Just out of curiosity.

    Unboxing of Deye 16K Hybrid Inverter

    That it is not Split Face, that is called biphase. Those two 120 volts legs are (correction 90 degrees and not 180) apart so between the two you have 240 VAC.

    Safely using MCB (mini circuit breakers) for PV & Bi-Directional Battery Protection

    One day you will open that MCB under some load (it does not have to be huge) and fireworks will start. In this case, that inline fuse will not protect you as the AMPS will not be massive either.

    Deye 16kW Inverter and Grid Load Sharing Issue

    Are you using a CT coil or a meter to control the GRID use? If a coil how far away is it from the inverter?

    Is Solar Assistant-Raspberry PI a reliable remote monitoring/control solution

    I use this one directly from my 14S LI-On battery to feed a Pi 3b with no problems whatsoever.

    Deye 5k Hybrid zero export to ct issue

    CHINT DDSU666 with RS485 as found here. Choose the right one as there are some variants there.

    Deye 5k Hybrid zero export to ct issue

    You are running in circles here. The problem is caused by the distance from the inverter to the CT coil. Nothing else, bring the CT coil closer to the inverter or replace it with a CHINT meter (if your version of the inverter supports it). See page 18 of the manual found here.

    Deye 5k Hybrid zero export to ct issue

    I was going to ask this. This is definitely your issue here. Some actual models can use a CHINT meter maybe yours supports it.

    contactor vs. shunt trip breaker

    I completely agree with you in everything you say here. Isolating the battery in an emergency is the only way I see it also. In my case, I choose to leave the Batrium itself on, so that it can generate the so-called snapshot report. I know it is almost useless but oh well, better to have it at...

    contactor vs. shunt trip breaker

    If you turn off your Batrium if / when the MCCB trips due to a critical fault then it does not really matter which option to choose. I choose to turn off everything except the Batrium hence the right function selected for the shunt trip coil, and I do not say this, Batrium says. They designed it...

    contactor vs. shunt trip breaker

    Sure they are top quality but the coil only needs a pulse to trip and nothing else. What would be the purpose of having a relay engaged in the expansion board sending power to the MCCB all the time when there is a function specifically designed for this? Simply put it is not the right function...

    contactor vs. shunt trip breaker

    And I respect that obviously. But I do not want you to only disagree I want to learn how it works. How possibly the S3 can cut power to the coil inside if there is no auxiliary contact involved?
  20. 100FUEGOS

    contactor vs. shunt trip breaker

    That may only be possible if the current from the Batrium to the trip coil goes through an auxiliary contact inside the MCCB. The Auxiliary contact inside the MCCB is in NC state and the moment the current pass through it and trips the MCCB the contact changes state and it opens the circuit. In...

    contactor vs. shunt trip breaker

    You should re-check your choice to trip the MCCB, all you need is a pulse to activate the coil that trips the breaker. No need to maintain the coil energised once it has tripped the breaker. My choice is "Critical Pulse Off (CB Trip)" as suggested above and it does exactly what I need.

    Solar Assistant battery charged vs discharged totals seem incorrect

    I do not think that value can be set for Deye / Sol Ark inverters, at least it is not available under Battery / Advanced like it is for Voltronic inverters.

    My Seplos Mason 10.5kWh Battery Pack Have Arived!

    Interesting... Deye supports Pylontech over RS485. Seplos talks Pylontech protocol. Deye support Seplos over CAN. Just to point out some interesting facts. hehehe

    My Seplos Mason 10.5kWh Battery Pack Have Arived!

    Asking cause my rebranded Deye also supports BMS over RS485 (maybe all Deye) and I know the Seplos comes in both flavours.

    I am using exactly this one with my Pi 3b and Turbo Energy (Deye rebranded) inverter. IT may work with your battery.

    Which inverters able to meet excess demand by supplementing batteries with grid, not completely switching to AC?

    All you need is a Sunsynk inverter. Couple it with a big enough battery for your needs and it will do everything you are describing in your initial post. P.S: I mention Sunsink because it is available to you in UK. It is basically a Deye / SolArk / Turbo Energy and many other commercial brands.

    Solar Panels being clipped /limited on Inverter Input

    Your inverter is clipping at 3.8 kW because it cannot cope with anything more. It can only deal with 3.6 kW (officially) either inverting and / or charging the batteries. There is nothing to fix as nothing is not working as it should here. Your installer is wrong. robby already mentioned it a...

    Sol-Ark 12K Outdoor with Solar Assistant Pi Device

    When I read this I incorrectly assumed your battery was using the CAN protocol and not the RS485. It is not clear in your words and I do not know the details of those batteries. RS232 splitter?

    Sol-Ark 12K Outdoor with Solar Assistant Pi Device

    Have you tried the splitter? I do not see the reason why it should not work. People from SA are telling you it will work. It uses completely different pins in the connector. See here:
