3. What is the short circuit current of the wind turbine? Use a multimeter
to determine if a short circuit current is as expected. There might be a
loose / faulty wire connection.
4. Is the turbine’s voltage close to the battery voltage?
If so, the panels could be warm/hot causing the Maximum Power Point
of the array to be at or lower than the battery voltage.
MPPT sweeping frequently
1. What is the current limit set point?
When the current limit set point is achieved the MPPT will continue
sweeping to maintain the targeted current limit.
2. What is the sweep interval set point?
A short sweep interval time will cause the MPPT to sweep frequently.
A sweep interval of 7 to10 minutes is recommended.
MPPT Internal Fan
Should the internal fan be running when the MPPT is producing power?
The internal fan will only run when the internal temperature has reached
~ 65 degrees Celsius or 149 degrees Fahrenheit.
