Multiplus II in conflict with camping switch + noise

Hi All,

I’m setting up a new 230 plant, in order to avoid unintentional camping switch trip, if the Multiplus is on.

I have just few questions:

  • According to my scheme, where would you suggest to connect the 230v that feeds the Multiplus?

  • In order to use the Multiplus just like an AC-DC, how to switch it on (1 or 2)?

  • While in bulk mode, does the Multiplus feeds the 230 V?

  • I have to pass the TÜV inspection, on next June and I have to draw an acceptable scheme: do you know a free software for drawing?

Thanks a lot,

Best energy :smiling_face:

Couple of suggestions here and a few other threads for drawings.

There are 3 positions, on, off and charger only (passthrough). 2 would be charger only so would allow passthrough.

Yes if the input current programmed allows it to.

Put all your loads on the inverter.
It has 2 outputs, that way you can current control the shore input to all the loads through the inverter.
There are two outputs, one for priority loads and the second can be programmed to disconnect. In its base state it automatically switches off when shore/grid disconnects.

Look up power assist and power control on you tube about that feature

What is your current location?

Hi,

There are some mandatory points:

  • the Multiplus II is very noisy overnight, even in OFF and it must be de-energized completely;
  • If the Multiplus output and the camping line insist on the same line, simultaneously, the camping switch trip immeditely; this must be avoided;

So, according tpo these points I’mm reviewing the scheme. Please let me know.

Odd. I haven’t experienced any noise when the unit is switched off. Are you sure the switch position is correct?
What size inverter is it?

What kind of noises are you hearing?

I guess having all the loads on the output makes no sense if you are planning on switching it off then since now the assumption is that you aren’t using 230v at night.

Does this mean you are also disconnecting the battery at night?

There is a fan assistant that can be used to reduce the noise, it will derate the system though.

Nothing strange: every transformer, with the primary under voltage is noisy; nothing to do with the CC side. But this is a simple problem to solve, I open the switch :sweat_smile:.

The main question is: how can I connect the inverter 230 output in order to avoid conflict with shore 230v?

Ciao.

Ok so you have not based your conclusion on actual experience? Off is off on a Multiplus, i have never heard transformer noises when the switch is in the off position.

If transformer noise is a problem have you considered looking into the Multi RS series - no big transformer there.

The only way to avoid the overload is to be a conscious user.
In any case it sounds like you will have the inverter off. So it would have to be a deliberate effort to switch it on then the use will know what they are doing and switch off the other load on the shore.

Use a changeover switch so that only one at a time can have a direct connection to the shore power.

I have now this Multiplus II and I can not waste it just for the noise, I would find a solution :slight_smile:

For me is not a problem switch off the inverter, I just want set up a system that is mistake proof, avoiding conflicts between 230V shore and 230V multiplus (when on).

I´m going to attache a new sketch…
