How to avoid that solar inverters switch off at too high grid voltage?

At least here, in the Netherlands, we have issues in some areas with a too high grid voltage, when there is a over production of solar power. When the standard 230V grid voltage increases to +10% (>253V) a solar inverter must shut down. That means a loss in energy production.

Will this work?:

If a solar inverter is connected to the AC OUT 1 of a Multiplus II, will this avoid that the solar inverter switch off when the grid voltage becomes higher than 253V?

Or is there another solution with Victron combined with AC solar inverters that avoids that the solar inverter switches off?

Victron inverters synchronise with the grid, so output voltage will match input voltage, until you disconnect the grid input, or it exceeds the input limits and it defaults to the configured inverter output voltage.

Thank you. Are the input limits adjustable or is it a pre-programmed value? Where can I find this?
