In using my 18KPV, is there a setting for max combined output of the PV and battery discharge.

I know of the settings for "Forced Discharge Power(kW)", and "Batt Discharge Control" in DC amps.

Any guidance is appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt

The 18kpv can only make maximum 12kw AC from the pv and/or battery (the dc side). It cannot be set. That is just the maximum it can convert from dc to ac.

So basically around 12.5kw can go in on the dc side and once converted to ac you will get 12kw on the ac side. The 0.5kw difference is what is lost in the conversion from dc to ac. But 12kw ac is the maximum the 18kpv can generate from the dc side to the ac side. You can dump a lot more on the ac side with ac coupling.
