API field

Auxiliaries: from power threshold

System output above which the continuous auxiliaries are drawn

Unit kW

What it is

The output above which the continuous auxiliary consumption is drawn, in kilowatts. It is compared with the system's total inverter output, the sum over the inverters.

Typical values and how to get it

0 draws the continuous auxiliaries whenever the system exports. When the auxiliary controller switches the loads on only above an output, enter its switch-on setting. If not given: 0 kW: the auxiliary load runs whenever the system produces.
