Posted January 29, 20223 yr I have just had a sunsynk 5kw inverter installed. It seems to not use the battery when AC is connected. Only draws from grid and from Solar. What settings needs to change?

January 30, 20223 yr Author Thank you for this, the load shows 0 although lights and other appliances like fridge and freezer are on. Edited January 30, 20223 yr by Adriaanvt Left things out.
January 30, 20223 yr It looks like nothing is wired to the load side of the inverter. Do you have pictures how the cables are connected? Do you have second DB for the essential load? Your consuming can’t be zero. Edited January 30, 20223 yr by PowerUser

Deselect grid charge and deselect limit to load and make sure use timer is selected. Also all the percentages on Work mode 1 are 80%. Maybe lower them to about 50

Won't it be a problem if I deselect the limit to load?
