I have a new install of:
9x 475W AIKO panels
FoxESS H1 3.68kW Inverter
FoxESS EP6 5.7kW battery
The panels are generating ok and are supplying enough power to supply the house between 0900 and 1900 and then the battery starts supplying.
Between 2100 and 0500 everyday it reverts to pulling from the grid and then goes back to the battery at just after 5am and then starts charging at around 0900 when there's enough surplus from the solar.
Can't find anything in the settings that has an exclusion period for 'self use' The mode is just set to self use and the battery min/max SoC is set to 10% and 100%
Seems strange that even when the battery SoC is at 80% it still stops using the battery and draws from the grid.
Can I set the system to use solar first, then battery until discharged and then pull from grid? When I read up on 'self use' that was pretty much the description.
Any idea why it's ignoring this between 2100 > 0500?
Hi,
This would require further investigation.
If you give us a call 020 7052 3472 or send us a email on service.uk@fox-ess.com, if you provide the inverter serial we can look at and fine out why the system is acting like this and get this resolved.
