By checking the terminal voltage of the Solar Charge Controller, I can ascertain whether it’s effectively regulating the power flow and protecting the battery from overcharging. A faulty charge regulator may not properly manage the power, causing the battery to not charge.
You should generally add a 5-7kWh battery to a 5kW solar panel system. This enables you to store your excess solar electricity all year round, to use when skies are grey and after the sun sets.
I measure the battery’s voltage to ensure it’s within the proper range; you can’t charge a broken battery with a healthy voltage. Examine the solar charge controller settings; the Charge Controller should indicate whether it’s receiving power from the panel and if it’s properly charging the battery.
A faulty charge regulator may not properly manage the power, causing the battery to not charge. I identify a faulty battery by measuring the voltage across the positive and negative poles. If the battery is unable to hold a charge, it may need replacement.
You can certainly get an off-grid 5kW solar panel system installed, and in most scenarios, it’ll provide a large proportion of the electricity you need. Since you can’t export excess energy to the grid, your focus will be on buying a large battery to store as much electricity as you can.
T. Not necessarily. One would have to see your graphs of production and consumption and battery power/SOC to be sure, but at this time of the year it could quite easily be that your 4.5kW of panels can produce a maximum of around 3kW at that time of the day.
I too have a relatively new install and have been having recent charge rate issues on my FoxESS system. The overnight charge rate seems throttled at 1kwh, this then …
