Hi,

I have an island with 1,92 KWp, MPPT 150/35, Multiplus 2 48/3000, Venus GX and 3 Pylontech US2000.

In some cases, when the MP2 has to generate more then 2,5 KW, the MP2 is blinking red, which means overload.

Now i want to configure my system so, that it gets power from the grid only if MP2 has to generate more than 2 KW. But how ?

Thanks for your answers

Hi @Karli. This can be achieved using ESS. There are various ways to do it so have a good read of the below document.
