Looking at the Quattro-II for some critical and desirable loads for my house in Ontario, Canada. I plan to use AC-in-1 from grid, AC-in-2 from generator (i.e., a F150 Lightning w/ Power Pro), AC-out-1 for critical loads such as freezer and sump pump, AC-out-2 for desirable loads when I am home which also includes water and waste pumps.
- Is it going to pass inspection? When I asked a dealer they said no because it is not UL rated. When I look up the certification it looks like it should be okay. The certification on it are as follows:
- Can anyone explain why AC-out-2 is limited to 50A? The manual seems to confuse legs (L1, L2) with AC1, AC2 in some places. Starting with the Block Diagram on page 29 of the manual. My assumption is this diagram is a representation of the physical wiring within the unit.
-
Green is the main path for AC1 L1. Both inputs are rated for 50A and, other than priority look like no functional difference.
-
Mauve is the addition from the inverter AKA PowerAssist.
-
Orange is from the main AC1 L1 path to AC2-out-L1. A bit of wire and a disconnect relay is in the path.
- Using the block diagram above and some pieces of information out of the manual I cannot figure out why Victron is limiting AC-out-2 to 50A.
-
Page 3 of the manual suggests placing heavy loads on AC-out-2
-
Page 19 of the manual states AC-out-2 can be configured with PowerAssist.
- Here is what I think the output for a given input should be.
