Overload duration on Multiplus?

Hey all,


Just purchased a Multiplus 5000/48 for use in an off grid system, and looking at the datasheet states it's good for a 10,000W peak load.

Is there any specification on duration for this? Say if someone suddenly puts 7kw load on the system, will it last for a few seconds while the generator starts and comes online, or will the inverter go into overload?


Cheers,

Beau.

The overload of 10kW can be up to 2 minutes, but a lot also depends on temperature and DC voltage stability.

Here is a Victron video/webinar about inverter overload:
