So if I plug into standard outlet your saying 12 amp is technically what I should set setting ac1 input current limit. How about if I plug into 30a shore power I should set that setting to like 20 amp input current limit?

Snoobler, this helped me start to get an idea but I have some questions. 1. My shore power is standard 30 amp however the battery spec for standard charge current on this setup is 60amp and this is what I am supposed to put for the charge current under charge settings in victron connect. Isn't...
