Hi all,
I have recently had my solar system fitted. The hardware components are:
- 4 kW solar power in two strings
- Growatt MIN 4600 TL-XE Dual MPPT
- Giv.AC3.0 inverter
- GivEnergy 5.2kWh LiFePO4 Battery
Initially the battery functioned as it was set up. It was charging during the day with solar power and discharging when house demand exceeded solar power.
This has recently changed to the battery not discharging at all or very little (0.01 kW). So at night the house demand is now solely met by the grid.
I have adjusted the settings of the inverter with the giv energy cloud trying to fix the issue and noticed that if I reset the settings of the inverter the battery works for a short duration (10-30 min) as it should and then it goes back to not working.
Do you have an idea what might be the issue? I can add pictures if they would help to pin down the problem.
Any help appreciated. I am also in contact with my installer about this but I believe a second opinion would be useful.
