This is a good one. What battery capacity have you programmed into the XW 
system? We have had a few issues, though not this one specifically, but similar 
head-scratchers that were resolved by setting the battery capacity to 0 Ah. 

Have you tried swapping AC1 and AC2 and does the problem follow the source or 
the input? 

I recently had an odd issue with generator automation on AC1 on an XW+ and 
Schneider tech support was helpful in replicating the issue in their lab and 
issuing a fix. Might be worth engaging them if you haven't already.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Xantrex XW 6048A unregulated during charging

Hello All,

I’m working on a system with 3 Xantrex XW 6048’s that has grid on AC1 and a 20 
kw generator on AC2.  When charging from grid it regulates during an absorption 
charge at 58.2 where it should.  When charging from AC 2 - generator, the 
battery Voltage rises above 62 VDC,  but not every single time.  All the 
settings are correct, EQ is turned off, and if it accidentally got turned on is 
set at the same Voltage as the absorption setting.  Customer has a brand new 33 
kWh AGM battery bank,  that I would rather not fry.  This is a battery backup 
system with no PV.

I have checked all the temperature sensors (they seem good) and tried charging 
with them plugged in,  and with them unplugged and it doesn’t seem to change 
the situation. 

Has anybody else seen this happen before?  Any suggestions?

Thanks very much,

Jason Lerner
