  • Bay Outlet Question

    Posted by gordon on January 29, 2021 at 6:59 pm

    Appreciate some advice on this as its not my field, i may be over thinking this but i am installing a 12v / AC fridge in my second bay, i have 110 v outlets in place, outlets are fed from the 2 Heart Inverters.

    Label on the fridge states that it should not be powered by a Generator or Inverter without AVR

    I understand the generator has an AVR and the Interior Fridge / Freezer, TV,s etc are fed by the inverters so i assume that the voltage supply is fairly stable, do inverters have AVR ?

    If im over thinking this please just say so !

    Thank You

    I don’t think AVR comes into play here, most inverters control high or low voltages through the setup menu and shut down if those parameters are exceeded.

    Thanks Tom

    After a bit of searching around on the Internet if my understanding is correct, Inverters somehow control voltage output digitally, once the preset value is reached they shut down.

    Going to power the fridge via the inverter fed outlets.

    you should be fine but some of the fancier fridges with lots of electronics sometimes don’t like the modified sine inverter output. Something to check before you buy
