Solar panels doing their job.  

The 1st picture below represents fully charged 200 amp hour house batteries.  The charge controller isn’t allowing any further amps into the batteries.

Second picture below reflects what happens when the refrigerator kicked on.  The charge controller is now sending 5.6 amps to the batteries to offset the refrigerator usage.

It’s 1:30 pm so for the rest of the day any power used is strictly from the sun, so batteries will be fully charged for nighttime use.
