Hello all, I was advised by my installer to write the question here, about done strange behaviour.

I have planned charging this while afternoon, loading to 100% soc. Now, he does has enough time to reach that, in the next few hours. But when I give it eg. an hour, the system does not load more kwh"s, while it should be able to pull aprox 10kwh in total. Any idea on this?

Installer checked all settings, he said, there is no reason why he doesn’t load more.

I now powered up my oven and charging my EV, now it does pull allmost 10kwh. But often not only on the batteries.

The Battery charge current may well be regulated by the BMS at that state of chrage, with the batteries carrying out balancing. Have a look at the CCL and CVL reported by the Cerbo, and compare the CCL (Charge current limit) with the actual battery charge current.

No, as written, there is no setting that would prevend loading more. I even saw the installer putted settings higher then it was. Still no result.

L2 is always “low”

Could be a weak connection somewhere on the L2 device, either as high resistance to the battery, or high resistance on the AC input side.
