DESS does not honor maximum charge/discharge power setting

Subject says it all. Maybe I’m missing something?

Common mistake. Those values are only for calculating in DESS. To max charge/discharge you have to change CCL (charge current limit) and DCL (discharge current limit).

Ton is right. When configuring Dynamic ESS you are only setting the capabilities, not actually setting limits for the system to use. See here for info on setting limits for the system.

Thanks for answer.

Do current limits apply only to Victron inverters or these are currents of the main breaker?

This is the limit you want the multiplus to obey.

It doesn’t have to be as high as your main breaker supports, but obviously should not be larger than that, unless you want to have it tripping under heavy load.
