The Fronius battery combo is already in place, I was thinking of the Victron as an add on, to supplement and recover instead of feed back to the grid, some of the extra energy I am producing. But I have to have the Fronius on the Acin do you think that this is possible ?

The whole thing works as follows: 1. Direct consumption which means that evwr is produced is first allocate to the loads 2. Battery charge, the surplus that is not consumed from the loads is allocated to charge the battery 3. If battery is full the surplus from the load goes to the grid...

Net Metering in Greece does not work with Tariffs but with power credit. the system sends extra power to the grid as a credit and at a later time if Battery reaches minimum SOC I can tap of that credit. However I am always paying the back and forth of power. This is what you save through...

Good question, however the requirement is not just Back up (which is indeed cheaper going with Fronius) but also to better utilize the existing infrastructure. I am trying to consume as much power as I can during the day (direct consumption) but still there is on average 5kwh to 10kwh going to...

@1201 thank you, I will talk to my local installer based on your recommendations. I really appreciate everybody's feedback. I am located in Athens Greece. Indeed the power rarely goes down I just want to better utilise the power production from my investment in the Net Metering system. As I said...

for some reason the posts where not visible to me and just saw them. In a nutshell I understand that I can only combine the fronius on the Ac out. Of course mine is the GEN24 Plus which I am not sure if it operates as the rest of the Fronius. If this is really the case then I can't use the...

I see what you mean, however this can't be an option since the management and cutoff of power must be regulated by fronius. This is the basis of the permit I received from the grid management company. When grid is down PV point on the fronius is activated so I will still get power to the...

can I have all my loads in the AC Output for critical loads, meaning treating the entire electrical panel as a critical load? This will mean that everything will be treated as critical. Of course I understand that there are limitations depending on the type of load, but if I have a 10000va...

If the PV inverter, which in my case has also a battery, is connected along with the grid on ACIn1 of the quattro and the Fronius PV point is connected in the ACIn2 wouldn't I achieve the same result of having power in a blackout? Stating the obvious, the Fronius PV point provides power, either...

I am not sure I understand the problem, so apologies if the question sounds stupid. Right now I have a small victron multiplus 800va connected to an outlet of the house to work as UPS. As I said the house is connected to the Grid and to a Fronius inverter. The Multiplus 800va has a battery and...

@1201 Thank you, I will go through it and revert back in the thread with questions :)

I wanted to have a switch but you will need to be very careful when changing destinations. 1. You have to disconnect the PV 2. Change the flow of energy to your other system. 3. Reconnect the PV and again all of this if done on full sunshine may affect the lifecycle of your products...

Thanks, of course in my case the Fronius takes care of the back feed for the NEt MEtering and also charges the BYD battery. But I want to emphasize on another question that I didn't rase in my original post. Can I synchronize the charging from e.g. a Quattro and smartsolar? The quattro will...

To provide some clarity. The cable providing power to my house will be connected to the AC Out of the Quattro. In the ACIn1 I will connect a cable connected to the panel that the fronius and grid power are connected. There will be no Back feed from Victron and Fronius will continue to regulate...

Hi all, Recently my NET METERING system went online. It comprises of the following equipment: 1. Fronius 5KW GEN24Plus 2. Fronius Meter 3. 12 Sharp 410w giving a total 4920kwp 4. BYD HVM 11.04kwh Currently there is no back up mode which means that is the grid goes down the only power available...
