Description
This DIY ESS bundle consists of your choice of Multiplus II GX inverter/charger and storage. Some items are required as part of the bundle offer, with customizable options to include e.g. a MK3 dongle, busbars or Lynx distributor or choose between an ET112 or current transformer. There are also other bundles to choose from. e.g. if you opt for a Multiplus-II or maybe even an all-in-one Easysolar system etc. If you cannot find what you need, please contact us for a custom solution.
So you have done your design, prepared a bill of materials and know what you want? Here you can build your own bundle, but firstly there are a number of important things worth mentioning before you proceed. Please don't hestitate to ask, as we are always only happy to help.
- Before ordering any system, always ensure the power generating equipment complies with the latest relevant EREC standards. Your DNO, the ENA register, manufacturer or installer are all sources that can be consulted on this. Ultimately the owner is responsible for ensuring the equipment they install are compliant.
- Our bundles for use in domestic installations consist of only fully type tested inverters to G99 standards.
- If you plan a system larger than 3.68kW aggregate per phase, you will first have to submit a G99 application to your DNO and obtain approval from them prior to installing any equipment or ordering it for that matter. We don't accept returns on the grounds that you did not get DNO approval.
- For a system of less than 3.68kW aggregate complying with G98, a notification to the DNO within 30 days after the installation is required.
- When choosing a storage system (batteries), you typically want to ensure the total usable battery capacity is at least a minimum of 2 x the inverter's continuous discharge rating. As example, if you have a 3 kVA (2400W) Multiplus-II GX, we recommend as a minimum either 2 x US2000C or 1 x US5000 battery, which is reflected in your choices.
- Sizing your inverter correctly will depend on having a clear view on your nominal and peak loads. For a grid tied ESS system, you may even consider a smaller inverter if you only very occasionally have high peak loads as the system will automatically use the max power the inverter can supply and then top up the shortfall from the grid.
- The bundles are designed to ensure you have everything you need to be up an running in no time. Please see our ESS system basics guide for the components required and their functions.
Our bundles include everything listed below, which you will need for your ESS, however if you require further customisation or want to add solar, please discuss your requirement with us before ordering for customized quotes.
The Victron's hybrid systems offer incredible design flexibility given the use of highly efficient DC coupled MPPT solar charge controllers that offer many system design and efficiency advantages over conventional grid tied AC coupled PV and storage systems.
