500VA MultiPlus?


But you may need a MultiPlus II in certain countries to legally connect to the Grid.

Theoretically you can use a MultiPlus 500VA for that, but as warwick wrote, in most countries you will need a additional anti-islanding-relay.
This will cost you 400-500€. That + the cost of the small Multi and you could just buy a MultiPlus-II 3000VA with an internal anti-islanding-relay.

Hallo Herr Lange :)

schönen Dank. Ich gebe das mal so weiter. Dass heisst: sämlich Multiplus haben einen Bidirectionalen AC-IN ? War mir nicht klar.


Ich denke Sie bekommen dann bald eine Bestellung. Einen MP2 5000 habe ich bei Ihnen schon gekauft !

Viele Grüße
