The current settings (AC current limitation and charging current) are multiplied by the
number of devices. However, the AC current limitation setting when using a remote
panel will always correspond to the value indicated on the panel and is not multiplied
by the number of devices.
Example: 9kVA parallel system
- If an AC input current limit of 20A is set on the master and the system consists of three devices,
then the effective system current limit will be equal to 3 x 20 = 60A.
- If a 30A panel is connected to the master, the system current limit is adjustable to a maximum of
30A, regardless of the number of devices.
- If the charging current on the master is set to 100% (70A for a MultiPlus 24/3000/70) and the
system consists of three devices, then the effective system charging current is equal to 3 x 70 =
210A.
The settings according to this example (9kVA parallel system with 30A Multi Control Panel) are as
follows:
