Great idea Howie. This client is very hands off and the original installer did nothing in the way of educating them to the do's and don'ts. I've only been there once and when I was there the SCP basically had all of the default values. Oddly, I'm actually looking forward to returning. Christopher

Chris, Had your client tried running the problematic appliances using generator direct, that is avoiding the xw entirely. That will at least tell you if it is something to do with the generator output or with the interaction of the generator with the xw that is causing the problem. Howie Michaelso

Just a couple add-on comments I’d lower the AC2 breaker size setting to around 40A each inverter. Double check the generator actually goes to AC2 terminals. But, the better setting would be to change the charge percent on the Charger setting for both inverters, maybe dedicate up to 5kW to batt

After doing some additional reading of the manual and with everyone's great insight I'm leaning towards the AC2 breaker sizing setting within the SCP. Given that default is 60 amps and that there are two inverters that would tell me that both charging and loads could draw as much as 120 amps. Given

Hi Chris, I recommend enabling Gen support mode and lowering the gen support level until the generator sounds good. I suspect that the generator can't handle full battery charging and loads simultaneously. You may also want to turn down the AC2 In breaker size for the Gen Input, this will determ

Chris: I have little Schneider experience but I will describe a problem with an Outback system that might be relevant: When the Outback Radian inverters would charge from the generator, in certain modes (there are a several generator utilization settings) the charging circuits would inject lar
