Quattro can do this, but you need a CCGX or Venus GX to do all the management. This will be an ESS system. Also the DC coupled PV will need to use a Victron MPPT so that it can be managed properly. AC coupled PV must not exceed the capacity of the Quattro, 1:1 rule.

Thanks W, so if I select pv on the CCGX it will give me a break down of export of multiple dc coupled mppts and the fronius or just the total.

You will get seperate production readings for the DC and Fronius AC PV in VRM.


I strongly suggest you read the ESS manual before undertaking this design. It should explain what the behaviour of the system, and the information that is provided.

You will also find a lot of useful information in the Fronius AC-coupled solar manual.
