Thanks for the reply! Glad to hear its quieter than the MP. Will have to do some more research as having these in the cabin and not having to build a shed would save me a ton of money and time.I have the 100a AT doing load balancing for two MP 3000s in split phase configuration. The AT is much quieter than the MPs (which are fairly noisy), but I don't know if when using it to step down 230v to 120v it would behave differently than my application.
Kind of what I am thinking as well. Thinking of using insulation in the closet with a layer of another soundproofing material, or even having just the autotransformer outside.Insulated cabinet perhaps?
Out of pure curiosity, why do you have the AT? Don't want to thread jack, so a pm is appropriate if you feel like it.I have the 100a AT doing load balancing for two MP 3000s in split phase configuration.

Pretty sure different applications and loads will induce different VAs on the AT. Even in balancing config if you connect the common neutral of inverters to the midpoint of the AT there will be different VAs since the neutral current will be split between the AT and the inverters. Vs 100% carried by the ATwhen using it to step down 230v to 120v it would behave differently than my application.
When you use an AT on the output of two stacked inverters it will allow some power from one inverter to be sent to the leg being served by the other inverter. The amount of power that can be transferred is dependent on the VA rating. It also provides 120/240 if one inverter fails. With some rewiring.Out of pure curiosity, why do you have the AT?

I'm new to the victron world and I am doing up an RV with 50amp service.

How does the setup handle shore power? IE avoid putting the neutral output of AT in parallel with the grid power which will not have exactly the same neutral to line voltageExactly, a microwave and rv ac unit. Might have turned the toaster oven on too, I was doing my best to test the system.
I'm not sure, I'm totally off grid, but there were some people discussing that subject in the thread I linked above.How does the setup handle shore power? IE avoid putting the neutral output of AT in parallel with the grid power which will not have exactly the same neutral to line voltage
