Low Voltage Relay Wiring – with Precharge
This wiring example shows how to connect a GRNbms MK3 system in a low-voltage setup, using three relays and a precharge resistor.
It is intended for 12 V or 24 V systems and uses the „Jump Start“ 12 V input for powering the BMS.
⚠️ Voltage Range: The BMS accepts only 10 V to 17 V at the Jump Start input.
If your battery voltage is outside this range (e.g. 24 V system), you must use a DC-DC converter to step the voltage down to a safe level.
💡 Using too high a voltage on the 12 V input can damage the BMS!
🔥 Always follow safety guidelines and consult a professional installer.
Incorrect wiring can cause damage, malfunction, or fire. Use at your own risk.
Components Overview
- HV Battery: Supplies the low-voltage system (e.g. 12 V / 24 V)
- Fuse: Protects the entire system from overcurrent
- HV Relay Precharge: Routes current through the precharge resistor to limit inrush
- HV Relay Positive: Connects main power after precharge
- HV Relay Negative: Closes the negative path to the load
- Precharge Resistor: Limits inrush current to the inverter during startup
- Current Shunt: Measures current flowing to the inverter
- Inverter: The main load (can be any DC consumer)
- Jump Start Input: Powers the BMS directly with 12 V via GND / 12 V input pins
BMS Power Supply (LV Mode)
- Connect 12 V to the Jump Start input on the BMS
- The BMS uses this input to power itself – no high voltage required
Relay Control
The BMS controls all three relays directly via its outputs:
- Precharge relay closes briefly to limit inrush
- Positive and Negative relays close after precharge completes
- The BMS monitors all timing and status automatically
