Dump Load or Diversion Load is an important part of an off-grid power system. When the bat-
tery ( Battery Bank ) is fully charged, and the water turbine / wind turbine / solar PV module is
still generating, a dump load is a useful device to send spare electricity to. This can be done
by using a switch on a smart load option or by utilising a wind turbine controller with a built-in
dump load. Also, a hot water tank controlled via a smart-load can act as a good ‘dump-load’
however, in very windy conditions it may be necessary to shunt the output.
Most wind turbines are three-phase PM type. Therefore, either a wind turbine controller or a
direct connection to the MPPT via a simple protection circuit will be required.
5.21. Advanced Settings for Auxiliary Load
To configure Auxiliary Load (previously known as “smart load”) settings, click on the AUX LOAD
icon.
What this page displays:
Use of the Gen (Aux) input or output.
What you can do from this page:
Set up a generator input.
Set up an auxiliary (smart) load.
Set up Peak Power Shaving.
Use an additional inverter or micro in-
verter.
A nice feature of this page is that when the batteries are full and the inverter is still producing
power from the solar PV or turbine, it is possible to direct the power generated to another load
such as a water heater.
