DC Power Always Negative – But Flow Arrow Wrong (Points into Battery even During Heavy Discharge)

Negative DC power is the battery being charged, positive DC power is power being used. The values and arrows are correct. Do you have a shunt measuring your DC system or do you just have the “Has DC system” enabled.

If you have a DC system shunt it is installed backwards.

If you do not have the DC system shunt then the DC is a calc using all other data and any errors in any of the information end up in the DC box. There is a good explanation in this FAQ. You only need a 2% error in one of your current readings to give 200W eror in the DC tile.
