I think in ESS the “Settings>System Setup>AC input1” with option none/net/generator.. is new.
Can this option be used to easy switch from the net to a generator on a Multiplus?
Normally a different Grid-Code/ Weak AC Input/ Current Limit…. has to be set.
Does this option does all of this (in background)? This would be great.
Or only for visualization…?
Is there some security, not to feed in on a generator, when selected accidentally?
Thanks, Markus
This is where documentation is your friend. I would suggest doing the training.
That is GX settings, not ESS.
Those have always been there and it is where you tell the system what is connected to what input so everything displays, behaves and reports correctly, it makes no physical changes.
The second input isn't present on a multi but will still be shown on the GX.
Thanks.
It's a pity, it would have been too nice.
Technically it would certainly be possible to change the grid code... temporarily for a generator.
Could you please explain a use case for having a generator in an ESS installation.
Normal ESS system and I like to use the generator in case of longer power outage.
