    Growatt servers not showing data? This fixed it for me.

    Any luck with this? Currently experiencing the same issue.

    My Victron 24V MultiPlus-II 2x120v arrived today

    Did you notice that you're missing the negative pads for the battery cables? I just received 2 of these units and both are missing the pads.

    Multiplus-II and Onan QG 5500 design questions/validation

    How old is your generator and does it only happen when running on the generator? I'm not exactly sure what's going on but my last guess would be the ground neutral bond on the generator. You'll have to consult ONAN for exact location and configuration but the ground and neutral should be bonded...

    If you are reading 120v and 60hz in the cerbo than the multiplus has connected to the generator. Is it not charging?

    When you are monitoring the inverter how are you determining that its the inverter not accepting the power? In the cerbo do you have a voltage reading on the inputs?

    What are you using to monitor your inverter? BT dongle or Cerbo?

    Multiplus-II and Onan QG 5500 design questions/validation

    Please excuse the over zealous safety warning, Dexter's reply was completely wrong and I have seen people get one reply to there question and just do it... I would suggest increasing your AC in disconnect to 106v and connect to 110, disable UPS, enabling dynamic current limiter, and lowering...

    Ok Dave, let me just start with DO NOT COMBINE L1 AND L2 ON YOUR GENERATOR! Now that that is out of the way. Most likely your settings are incorrect. Could you please upload some screen shots or the actual veConfig file for your system?

    If you have voltage between L1 and L2 of 240v than the Multiplus II will handle the power directly. Single phase is technically 240v and your generator has a center tap giving you split phase. Which is the input that the multiplus II is rated for.

    NO!!! If you have 240volts between L1 and L2 on the generator output than the lines should NOT be combined EVER.

    Multiplus-II and Onan QG 5500 design questions/validation

    Apparently it works for people but Onan have repeatedly told me that these units are Non-recombinable. Meaning you can't do exactly what is mentioned in the video however I assume nothing bad has happened with it for him to post a video. The only thing I can think of, would be that the...

    I wonder why Onan labels these generators as non-recombinable.

    The 2400 rpm generators have 3 physical poles. So the formula for frequency, Generator Frequency (f) = Number of revolutions per minute of the engine (N) * Number of magnetic poles (P) / 120. 2400*3= 7200/120=60

    And just to confirm, L1 and L2 have no potential/no voltage between them.
