Need some diagnostic input.
48v system, two 5kwh lifepo batteries in parallel connected to 5kw all in one inverter with 1600w pv array. Supplies a 120v critical loads panel, grid isolated.
3 months old. Used to work fine but now has some issues. Battery discharge cutoff is set to 48.8v and charge/discharge at 20%/95%.
Inverter shut down when reading 54% SOC and battery voltage at 46.4v. It is set to shut off at 20% SOC although I do have voltage cutoff set to 48.8v, I was understanding that SOC% and voltage correlated to one another. All 16 cells read about 2.9v.
How could SOC% and voltage drift apart?
54% SOC should be around 52.2v when referring to the Lifepo voltage chart.
Any input is appreciated.
