What is a Multi-Grid / Hybrid inverter ?A unique and revolutionary power management inverter that allows you to take power from your solar panels, feed to the home, batteries and optionally the grid.

When the sun goes down the batteries will automatically kick in to supply the load from the home.

The Richards-Stark Multi-Grid seamlessly manages the process without interruption.

You can monitor your homes power activity using the detailed LED Screen or the software and USB cable provided to link to your PC or Mac.

The Hybrid Home Taking a step off the grid

Becoming a Hybrid home couldn’t be easier.

Whether you have an existing solar installation or are considering a new one the Richards-Stark Multi-Grid / Hybrid inverter is a simple plug and play device that takes your home one step off the grid.

Instead of installing a traditional solar inverter the multi-grid allows connection directly to the home load, battery backup as well as the grid. For those wishing to have their solar installation work independently of the grid the Multi-grid can be configured to work only with the battery and load support.

The Multi-Grid is a highly advanced device that manages the power from your solar pv. It makes decisions based on the needs of your home.

Customisation

Every home is different and some have specific requirements. The Multi-Grid has advanced configuration options that allow your installer to make specific edits to your system, giving you and your home the most finely tuned system available.

2. The inverter detects the battery needs to be rechargedand feeds power to the batteries

3. The inverter detects there is power demand in the home. It feeds power to support the load

1. The sun is rising and power starts to flow from the panels to the inverter

4. There is an excess of power from the PV. This model is set to ‘Grid Feed’ and therefore sends excess back to the grid.

2. PV input (Solar panels)3. AC Input (Grid input)4. Battery capacity5. Total Energy per day

There is also a useful diagram andStatus indicator to show exactlywhat the inverter is doing and where your power is going.

This sample shows a Multi-Grid setas an Off-Grid inverter.

The Panels are providing 1.72kw, This is being fed to charge the battery and then the load fromthe home.
