Growatt spf 5000 es Issue

Hi I like the similar but different. 

It sounds a lot different, since you don't have panels you have a big UPS. Like all UPS it is only needed when grid is not available. Don't set any settings to use PV yet while you don't have any panels.

Since you have a big battery you might not be discharging it enough to reach back to utility setting. Check your back to battery and back to utility settings and adjust as needed.

The issue is not that the inverter does not switch back to utility, but rather that the battery is only charging at the small current of 1.5A and also only to 49.1V and not to around 54V.

Setting 1 SUB
Setting 14 SNU  (My manual states SNU, I see you state SNA?)

Have you tried that?

I tried SUB and SNU it today.
No difference.

SNA should have been SNU in original post (typing error)

The sun has already set but the amperage screen gives the best idea of how the electricity is flowing. The voltage screen just says that things are working.

Try scrolling down to the amperage screen, it should look like this. Don't mind that my battery is already low I've been blasting the aircons it 35 celcius here.

Do you have a problem code 04 ?

Code 4 is a warning to recharge the battery. It's not a problem. 

If the battery gets too low it triggers a grid charge otherwise it will stay at 20% overnight until the sun comes up and starts charging the battery.

Something our Growatt has problems with settings. I am missing the following settings:
  1. When there is sun, it powers the receivers, and when there is more of it, it charges the batteries, and when there is no sun, the batteries support the sun at the same time and so all day long.
2. When it gets dark (night), I set the current of the batteries to help the power grid to power the receivers until they reach the lower, limit voltage, then they disconnect and wait for the next day for the sun to charge them.
Maybe the inverter can be set up like that, but I can't see it at the moment.

The inverter can only combine solar and battery(SBU) or solar and utility(SUB) only.

Hello,

I have been called to look at the fault on SPF 5000es. When I switch on the inverter, the display shows fault red light 09, while the buzzer is on continuous and then the inverter goes off on its own, may I know what is the problem?

Hi, I have a Growatt SPF inverter 5000 ES. Is involved as an island. Sometimes it happens that after turning on the LED light in the house (30W) or connecting the laptop charger (50W), the inverter will switch to the error code 04, even if the SOC is 90%. The connected washing machine (2000W) or dryer (650W) is without problems. Problems are only with some appliances.

I will be grateful for any help.

Firmware Version 067.01

Secondary Firmware Version 068.01

Or is there a problem with the battery that BMS switches to protect mode? But why only after connecting some appliances?

Good day 

Please assist I have a Growatt SPF 5000 Es inverter with 8 375w panels installed. I am running on Sol mode and the panels are able to power the house during the day, my issue is, randomly during the day Ac output voltage will start to flactuate rapidly from 226v,227v, 231v,235v and this will go on for about a minute or two and that causes my Led house lights to flicker. All the appliances will be running normal. Is this an inverter issue or inverter wiring that could be the problem? 

Thanks 

Cliff

Cześć, aplikacja na telefon Shine dla Growatt. Czy należy wprowadzić ustawienia w aplikacji, aby móc coś zmienić. Nie mogę tego zrobić w mojej aplikacji. Mówi, że nie mam autoryzacji. Potrzebuję hasła. Czy ktoś zna hasło. Byłoby wspaniale zmienić ustawienia z poziomu telefonu.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hasło do zmiany parametrów Falownika to growatt i aktualna data (np.growatt20240301)
