November 18, 20223 yr Hi All, Still a newbie to these back up power systems, I am running a luxpower SNA 5000 and Dyness 4.8kwh battery. The battery seems to be in constant discharge even when the grid is on (example on the picture). When the grid is on it discharges around 50W and this jumps as expected when there is loadshedding. Is this to be expected? I would expect zero discharge and for the battery to only kick in during loadshedding.

Check your settings if you can in fact put the inverter in bypass. All electrical devices do need power to work so in this case choose the source that suits you. With panels at least the battery power stored could be sourced from PV during the day. I would rather draw the 56W from battery than using 56W 24/7 from the grid.
November 21, 20223 yr Hello, your Battery Voltage is low for 91% SOC, If you have more than 1 Battery you should load them one times single to max and do that with both and bring them then again together. if you have done this, we do next. And lock at your settings in inverter menue, maybe you spend 50 W to feed in grid. Regrads Bernd
