Parallel Battery Configuration
« on: 05 October 2021, 13:48 »
I am using two battery DC sources connected in parallel each source having its own output fuse. Both batteries are in hard parallel at the distribution board input via switches.

The battery fuse discriminates with the down stream load MCBs (Inverter loads) but i am getting a critical error due to the total loading being applied to only one (active battery source. Is it possible to have both battery sources connected to the distribution/switchboard at the same time as this is how it would function in reality?

To achieve this you need to have the battery selected and then go to main menu Functions --> Parallel source operation and check the other Battery. Now the two switches will be set to close.
