battery equalization and diversion loads

sunspot · 03-01-17, 08:57 AM

Is there a simple/elegant way to automatically disconnect diversion loads while batteries are equalizing?

Small, single panel (190 watt), off grid, 24 vdc system. PWM controller.

Thanks folks!

Hmm not sure on an automatic way. But I'm assuming you have to manually put the controller into equalize mode. If so you just put a switch or breaker of some sort before the dump load.
