Safety Switch on "Remote on-off"

Hi everyone,


Can we use a safety switch connected on the remote on-off bridge of a Quattro/ Multi ?

I know there's an assistant for that but it's hard to use in big three-phases system:

And it cannot be used on BMS controlled batteries:

Why not wiring it this way:

This way, all the Master remote on-off could be parallelized. Am I missing something about the electrical safety rules ?


Best regards

Hi @Danakil

What kind of system are you running? you cannot use the remote on/off when connected to a Venus device or Remote Control Panel.

Hi @Daniël Boekel (Victron Energy Staff),

Thanks for your feedback !

It's to be used instead of a MN or MX voltage release. Where can I find this information about the Venus devices ?

Hi @Danakil
Pleas note that when the Multi is in 'safety switch' mode, it still draws (quite a bit of) current from the batteries.

I suspect you don't want this?
(still no information from you about the system configuration)
