DISCHARGE BATTERY MODE

DISCHARGE mode is user selectable on the portal.
DISCHARGE mode prioritises battery discharge to the
following:
AC loads
Grid
Battery discharge is at the nominated Discharge Power,
supplemented by solar.
If AC Loads exceed (Battery + Solar), energy is imported
from the grid.
If (Battery + Solar) exceed AC Loads, excess energy may be
exported to the grid.
If (Battery + Solar) exceeds (AC Loads + LEP) the battery
discharge is prioritised, at the maximum possible rate, up to
the nominated Discharge Power.
4.5.5

BACKUP MODE

BACKUP mode starts automatically when the grid supply is
interrupted (default setting).
In BACKUP mode, the SH5000 provides energy to the AC
backup circuit only. Energy consumption from solar is
prioritised and excess solar charges the batteries.
To maximise the effectiveness of the AC backup circuit, the
circuit should only support essential appliances such as
refrigerators, or low energy devices such as fans, computers,
tablets or phones.
BACKUP mode is invoked within 0.05 seconds of a grid
interruption. BACKUP mode reverts to the previous mode
when the inverter detects grid supply has been restored for
over one minute.
BACKUP mode may also be known as "Stand-alone Mode".
Note: If available battery and solar power is less than the
detected backup load the inverter will consider this an
overload and will automatically shut down.
The inverter will restart after approximately one minute. If
overload persists, the cycle will repeat.
