The ‘Grid’ section of the VictronConnect app contains settings that pertain to how your MultiPlus inverter/charger interacts with the grid. Here are the details of each feature within this section:
-
Accept wide input frequency range (45-65Hz): This setting allows the inverter to accept a broader range of AC frequencies from the grid. When turned on, your inverter will consider all incoming AC power with frequencies between 45Hz and 65Hz as acceptable, which can be beneficial in areas with less stable grid frequencies.
-
UPS function: The Uninterruptible Power Supply function enables the inverter to quickly switch to battery power when grid power fails or is disconnected, ensuring no interruption to the connected loads. This might need to be disabled when using generators as the power source to prevent unnecessary switching due to generator fluctuations.
-
AC low voltage disconnect: This setting defines the voltage level at which the inverter will disconnect from the grid to protect your system from undervoltage situations. In this case, if the grid voltage drops below this voltage, the inverter will stop drawing power to prevent potential damage to your equipment.
-
AC low voltage connect: After a low voltage disconnect, this setting determines the voltage at which the inverter will resume connection to the grid.
-
AC high voltage connect: Similar to the low voltage settings, this parameter sets the voltage level at which the inverter will connect to the grid in high voltage scenarios. If the grid voltage stabilizes to this set voltage, after a high voltage disconnect, the inverter will reconnect.
-
AC high voltage disconnect: This protects your system from overvoltage by defining a threshold at which the inverter will disconnect from the grid to prevent equipment damage.
-
Country / grid code standard: Although not configurable within VictronConnect, this setting relates to specific regional standards for grid-connected systems. To adjust this, you would need to use the VEConfigure software, which offers a more detailed setup for compliance with local grid codes.
By properly configuring these settings, you can ensure that your inverter/charger works in harmony with the grid, protecting your equipment from voltage irregularities and providing seamless power backup when needed.
I’m looking at the ‘Inverter’ settings section in the VictronConnect app for my MultiPlus inverter and would like to understand each setting and feature. Can you explain what each option does?
