Hi Everyone,
I'm just wondering if anyone knows of a way that we can configure a delay to starting the battery charging on Eaton UPSs, or limit the charging current?
I work with a charity that operates a camp at a remote site in WA. Due to its remoteness, we are off-grid, with our power supplied by our own private micro-hydro power plant. In the winter months, our supply becomes rather weak, sometimes as low as 40kW for our 70 year-round staff members.
The big challenge we have is when we do a power plant restart, many devices (UPSs, refrigeration units for our walk-in freezers/refrigerators, etc...) all start up at once and start drawing a lot of power, which often causes the protection relays on the power plant to trip out again.
Ideally, what I would like to do is be able to set the UPSs to switch back to line power when the power is...
