Configuring Conductor Export Limits

Overview

Backup Gateway 2 can be configured to limit Powerwall discharge power. When Conductor Export Limits are programmed, the Powerwall discharge power is dynamically adjusted based on the amperage measured by designated current transformers (CTs) and the programmed Conductor Limit amperage threshold.

Set Conductor Export Limits

Install CTs

  • Conductor CTs must be installed on conductors that are:
    • Between the grid connection and the Powerwalls.
    • At a location where the Powerwalls have control over current.
  • CTs should be oriented such that the label faces toward the grid.

    CTs can only be assigned one designation, meaning a CT cannot be both a Site and a Conductor CT.
