Hi all.
I'm trying to wire in a Powmr MPPT 60A solar charge controller into a system with a battery and an inverter.
I am using a JK BMS.
The issue I have is, the Powmr charge controller won't turn on unless it see's the battery. So I have to turn the discharge function of the BMS on.
For the charge controller to feed into the battery (through the BMS) I have to have the BMS's discharge function on, which also then means the inverter (or any other load) is activated. Not a big deal but it's also not ideal....unless this is normal?
How else could I wire it? I could wire the charge controller direct to the battery, bypassing the BMS - but I like the functionality of being able to turn charging off via the BMS.
Attached is how I was thinking of wiring it....
Cheers!
