| Victron Wiring Help Needed I have a 3.5kw Genset, a Victron MultiPlus, and 2 30A shore power connections with two separate panels. One panel has the Aircon units, and the other has the waterheater, microwave, etc. I would like someone who is interested in the Victron solution to help me with the schematic. I intend to run the genset offshore for charging and making H2O simutaneously, and will use the "power-assist" feature of the Victron to help start motor loads from the watermaker or the AirCon units. I would like to be able run any of the 120VAC devices individually when using either power source (Genset or Shorepower), but I don't need to run the big loads the same time while on genset power. In otherwords, while in port, I'd like to use both shore power connections, but when "off-grid", I'd like to be able to power any individual 120VAC device, regardless of which AC panel it goes thru. This does not have to be automatic either. It gets complicated for me as the Inverter also needs to feed the 120VAC circuits. Any one have a simple schematic? |

| I'm surprised Terry King hasn't answered this, but you might PM him. He seems to be well versed in such systems. Alan |

| Checking in From China... ...Heard my name in Vain... Just got to China and overwhelmed... I'll try to check in tomorrow more... BOATS!!!! More varieties than I've ever seen! Couple photos attached.. View is from our apartment - 18th Floor. The lower building in center is Mary Alice's High School (Red towers). The library she designed is the 4th floor... MUCH more soon.. Terry

| I ran a trace 4000 120 vac inverter charger , it was absolutely a fantastic thing, It could put 100 amps into the batterys, it could be programmed to charge at any voltage( 24 -38 to equalise batts, when inputting from the genset, it has run 7 years doing all ac as we do not have 120 shore here. With 900 amp hr batts i n the house, we keep them trickle charged 25 amp shore power The thing even runs the Copeland freezing system which starts draw 50 amps on start, but settles to 9, that near 100 amp /hr at 24 vdc, so BUY TRACE the best thing out of USA!! |
