If the batts are fully charged, then your charger/rectifier should be putting out exactly what the load is needing (plus a tiny bit of battery leakage current).
If your load picks up, your charger will carry it up to whatever current limit the charger has. If you have an extended outage, the batts might suck more than the charger can put out once the power comes back on. So the best systems have some form of current limiting to ensure the load gets its current first and any extra can go to charging the batts. From: Sterling Jacobson Sent: Wednesday, September 18, 2019 1:19 PM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group Subject: [AFMUG] DC Battery Charge/Load Question I’m still learning this stuff. If I have a 48v battery string and it’s being charged with 10A, and my load is connected directly to it taking normally 2-7A, the load will not receive that full 10A current meant to charge the batteries, correct? Or does it? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
