Hi @Herve RV Nizard,

There is a data sheet comparison document on the difference between the recent MultiPlus, and MultiPlus-II revisions here:

https://www.victronenergy.com/upload/documents/MultiPlus-II-to-MultiGrid-and-MultiPlus-comparison-EN.pdf

@Murray van Graan - is correct in that for most people the biggest functional difference is the additional relay, allowing additional grid code compliance.

I also recently gave some other (less documented) differences in answer to another post - https://community.victronenergy.com/questions/62898/why-is-the-multiplus-ii-cheaper-than-the-old-one.html

@Guy Stewart (Victron Community Manager) I would like to ask you a question but i havent been able to send you a PM. I want to know if there is some way of allowing the use of one AC output ONLY when batteries are full. I am planning to buy the MPII with cerbo and Pylontech batteries. I want to use this solar power exceedance to allow a water heater to work, but only when that condition is accomplished. Thanks a lot.

It's far better to open a new question for the community, than try and ask me directly. Yes, it is possible. A good place to start would be to watch the MultiPlus Assistants course in Victron Online Training Program. Specifically Chapter 10 Relay and Chapter 11 - General Flag.

Thank you very much for replying @Guy Stewart (Victron Community Manager)

I opened a new question but no one could help me in this regard: https://community.victronenergy.com/questions/63203/how-to-deviate-the-solar-exceedance-in-an-off-grid.html


I will read this, very interesting!

Hi @Herve RV Nizard. The Multiplus ll is the same as a normal Multiplus, with the exception that a Multiplus ll has dual ac input disconnect relays that makes it compliant with many grid code standards for feeding back to the grid. That being said, if you never plan to feed back to the grid there would be no difference between the two
