Title: Current Limit
Post by: EW Zuber on March 14, 2014, 08:12:18 PM
The system has 5.5KW of solar and a battery bank that can accept 40A at a C-10 charge rate. My question is, if I use two Classic's  in follow me mode and set the current limit at 40A will that limit stand for both controllers individually (and be capable of 80A) or will it limit the total charge current to 40A?

Each classic's current limit is for each individual classic right now, even in follow me.

Hopefully we will be able to have them follow each other for that, too.

What is yor battery voltage ?

Battery voltage is 48V.

OK.   Setting each Classic to 40 amps limit should work OK until we can get a WB Jr. system wide current limit going.

Eventually....
