Grid feed-in not working

Hi guys, I’m having an issue with my MultiPlus II.

This is my setup:

  • Multiplus connected to the grid via AC-in.
  • GerboGX.
  • 2x 200Ah 48v batteries with built-in BMS - connected and communicating with MultiPlus.
  • Homey connected to the system with intention to control the setup and adjust feed-in/charging based on electricity cost.

Charging works, and I’m also able to see that the Homey connection works.

ESS is configured, but I’m in no luck feeding back to the grid. :(

Any suggestions on what I have done wrong?

You need a compliant grid code set for ESS to work properly.

That easy? :P

Do you have any idea on which grid code to choose for Norway?

Solved: For some reason, the system will not feed back to grid when the cable between the MK3 USB adapter and the inverter is connected. After pulling the cable, feed-in worked like charm. :)

Yes, you can’t have that and a gx connected simultaneously. It is documented, would have been a good point to mention as we’d have got to the bottom a lot quicker.

Hi! What sort of grid type did you choose for the ESS for Norway? Denmark? And if so: which of them?
