Start inverter under load

Hi,

Is it ok to start the inverter under (heavy) load ?

I would like to connect a fridge to my Phoenix 12/800, with the thermostat wired to the inverter's remote control port. By doing so the fridge's compressor would suck ~700VA immediatly at startup. I have tried, it seems to work well. But is there an impact on the inverter's reliability over time ?

Some do add a delay between inverter and compressor startups, but it is quite impractical in my case, so I would prefer to avoid... but I don't want to blow my Phoenix !

thx !

If the Inverter does not Overload I cant see a issue in starting on high load
