RW Spring Series Battery

BatteryFault

Also applies to:RW-L2.5ARW-L5.1RW-L10.2RW-F16SE-F5SE-F5 PlusSE-F5 ProSE-F12+7

What it means

Charge over current — Charging current exceeded the battery's over-current protection limit and charging was interrupted.

Cause: Charging current exceeded the protection limit - the inverter/PCS charge-current setting is above the battery's rating, or paralleled batteries are sharing current unevenly.

How to fix it

Reduce the inverter's charge-current setting to the battery's rated value; with multiple batteries, check the power cabling is symmetrical so current shares equally, then restart the battery.

GB-A HV Battery

BatteryFault

Also applies to:GB-A

What it means

ALARM_ID_CHG_LOW_TEMP_LEV_2 — The charging temperature is too low.

Cause: Cell temperature is below the minimum charging temperature - the battery is in an environment colder than its rated charging window.

How to fix it

Warm the installation space (or allow the internal heating to bring the cells up to temperature) before charging resumes.
