Dear Members,
My first post on the forum and I would be very grateful for any guidance/confirmation that can be provided.
We have just upgraded our boat and the biggest challenge and cost is going to be upgrading the electrical system onboard. I do have a 9.5kva generator and shore power when available. Battery bank is 12V and provides power for all “essential” operational equipment. I intend to provide all other consumers at 220V.
I’ve read that the Quattro’s are capable of parallel operation and intend to upgrade and install 2 x 5000W 12/220 units in parallel providing approximately the same power as the generator and more than normal shore power at 15/30A (I also get a little redundancy if/when issues arise).
Questions:
· Can I run shore power and split to both Quattro’s? I believe the answer is yes
· Can I run generator and split to both Quattro’s? I believe the answer is yes
· Can I take the 220V output from both Quattro’s and common them up before running the common power supply to my 220V distribution board? The point I need guidance on
Best regards
Paul
