Jaco Ebersohn got a reaction from Antonio de Sa in Phocos Hybrid Inverter 8KW - Need Config HelpGood day,
I have a Phocos unit installed and use it in SUB mode. During the day, it would use solar to feed the loads and charge the battery. During the night, it will use the grid and switch to batteries when the grid is not available (load shedding).
The SUB for source output priority should do what you're asking for.
Please check your :
1) To grid battery voltage
2) Back to battery voltage
3) Shutdown battery voltage
Do you know if you have a BMS connection between the batteries and inverter ? This will be required in order to get a more accurate state of charge (SOC) from the batteries.
See below my configuration for the output settings:
I have invested in Solar Assistant a few months ago to better manage how the inverter must switch between the SUB & SBU modes. With this you can optimise battery usage and tell the inverter when to switch to grid and when to use batteries. See the picture below of the configuration I typically use.
Hope this helps ?
Regards,
Jaco
