Grid to grid ess

Hello I have a multiplusII with polytech batteries. I have dynamic prices that are different every hour. Also I have a second grid with a normal price plan. On this second grid I have cheaper prices sometimes then the first one with dynamic prices on some hours. Now I will charge the batteries with grid 2 and discharge then during peak hours on grid 1. Is it possible to put grid2 on AC1-out and grid1 on AC1-in and feed in from grid2 to grid1 ? This will prevent the losses for charging the batteries and vice versa. I found that you can connect AC1-out to an PV inverter of generator but grid2grid is nowhere discribed . Thanks for answering.

This is not possible with a Multiplus-II.
The quattro has 2 AC inputs as so it would be possible.
You can always have a second multiplus on the second grid connection.

NO! Never connect a grid to the AC Out! That can damage or destroy the MultiPlus!

@Matthias Lange - DE , thanks for your answer good to know that I do not have to try it.

@shaneyake , you mean the second multiplus connected to the second grid and charge the batteries with them while you discharge them with the first multiplus ?

Correct. Quattro would be able to switch between grids so you wouldn't have any of the AC->DC->AC losses for the loads but we have some grid connections where we do the AC->DC->AC and you only lose a few percent if you do it right.
