Hi All,
I am in Dar es Salaam, currently full of sun power as it is just below equator (6degrees South)
I have a 5KW solar panels connected to a 100A SCC which is loaded with 400AH 48V LiPo4. The Battery bank is directly hooked to a 3000W inverter
The cable from solar panels to the battery bank is 10mm copper cable running for about 20m.
My frustration is even at 13hrs where power generation is at the peak.... and the battery is still 50% full. The maximum generation I have ever seen is 2300W through the SCC. I expected at this time the SCC should be in full swing 4000W plus
My question is where am I getting it wrong? I expected the battery bank to be full at least before noon. But this is not the case
Solar Panel Specifications are as per below
Model NS-500S6-32
Maximum Power at STC(Pmax) 500W
Optimum Operating Voltage (Vmp) 48.63V
Optimum Operating Current (Imp) 10.29A
Open-Circuit Voltage (Voc) 59.0V
NSort-Circuit Current (Isc) 10.87A
Solar Cell Efficiency (%) 22.23
Solar Module Efficiency (%) 19.51
Operating Temperature -40to85℃
Maximum System Voltage DC1000
Maximum Series Fuse Rating 15A
Power Tolerance ±3% STC:Irradiance 1000W/㎡,
Modules Temperature 25℃,AM=1.5
While the SCC is as per attached image
Thanks, Innocent
