The two most common causes of incorrect output voltage are having loose or incorrect wire connections, or using a charge controller that was designed for a different application. First check the installation manual to be sure all connections are correct, and that the device is designed to supply the voltage for your application. If all connections are correct, check the power supplies. Are the batteries charged sufficiently for the load?
If you are using a solar charge controller, are the solar modules connected correctly and are they receiving good sunlight to operate?
It is always best to review each component manual to ensure a safe and successful installation. The most common problem we see is from customers who bought a solar controller designed for 12VDC battery, but they have the batteries wired for 24VDC or vice versa.
Another common problem is that the batteries are at a low voltage, and the controller shuts off the load output (Low Voltage Detect Function) to protect the batteries from over-discharging. The controllers will turn off the load at around 11V (22V for 24V battery systems), and will turn the load back on when the batteries have charged to safe levels.
