Hi Guys,
This seems like a reasonable post to ask this question.
If I have a victron multiplus 5000kVA 48V that has never been configured, (other than factory defaults), can I plug a generator into the AC side and use it in charger only mode to charge my 48V lead acid batteries. I need to give them a boost to prevent the self discharge getting too low (2V cells are currently at 1.95V after 18months of storage, this is down from 2.5V when new.
Alternatively I will need to remove & split into 2no 24V arrays & use a standard 24V battery charger to restore voltage.
thanks guys
Quick answer, yes you can do that.
Longer answer (for if you have troubles with maybe genny capacity issues or suchlike) is best asked for by starting your own thread. No disrespect, but that's the preferred method here, so as not to sully the other answers to the original poster.
