Multiplus II split-phase w/TWO Current transformers?

Looking at implementing a split-phase 120v x 120v install with two units and ESS. Can a current transformer be connected to each Multiplus along with the two corrosponding main lugs, to monitor total current across both phase angles?

Yes, each multiplus-II can have it's own CT but this will only work with MultiPlus-II 120V.

You will run them as L1 Inverter with L1 CT and L2 Inverter with L2 CT.

We are considering a two-unit, ESS-powered, 120v x 120v split-phase installation. Is it possible to measure total current across both phase angles by connecting a current transformer to each Multiplus and its corresponding main lugs?

Yes. Both the power for each phase and the total.
