Grand Design Solar Install - Part 2

This is part 2 of our installation of the victron system to our Grand Design Reflection. It is a 2021 model bunk house. We had the previous year model and it was great but we traded it in for the bunk house due to room and we liked the layout better. This is our take on the Victron Multiplus 2 installation, we also used CHINS 300 amp hour batteries. I have all of the solar equipment we used in our Amazon Storefront so please check those out below:

That Victron unit was designed to be placed in a vertical orientation. You need to shear off a few inches of the cover at the top to allow for more airflow in that orientation.

Hey, yes Sir we found out about the orientation issue we spoke with an installer afterwards and he showed us another way to arrange things. We have since changed our system in the underpinning completely to provide ample room for air flow. Thanks!

would have liked to see the floor being cut out. Thanks for the video.

[@greenecreekfarms]

Thanks, sorry we tried to video it but the space was so small it was difficult to video it in the crawl space.

What did you do with the red and black cable that went to the old inverter and also the brown wire

[@greenecreekfarms]

The red and black cable we pulled out and ran new as this cable wasn’t big enough to handle the amperage we were putting out. As for the brown wire I apologize it I don’t remember lol, I’ll look back at my footage and try to jog my memory on what we did there.
