Install Timelapse - Shipping container full of Victron equipment to power a factory

[@110Griff]

blown away, what a super clean install, great work from the fitters.

Because it is action-packed without time-wasting fluff.

[@whirledpeaz5758]

This looks like something that could be marketed as a modular prebuilt. The Shipping container is inspired.

[@piskai]

around what money we talk about this prebuild can be?

[@jokerash]

@@piskai in Romania the price is anywhere between 900 to 1100 E per Kwp installed, multiply that with 130 Kwp of solar power installed, plus container, cabinets, DC fuses which costs a LOT . Probably we are talking here about 150 to 200k euros for this install

Glad to see businesses in my country are stepping up the game !

I’m an electrician, and I feel I’m being left behind with all the advanced tech coming out. It’s definitely a young mans game now. Great video.

[@hvacstudent967]

Simple subsystems to learn, complex only in whole system overviews. How do we eat an elephant?

[@user-dy9ux5dc6e]

I "identify" as an electrician. Why would I pay you some astronomically high rate to come play with my new gear?

[@bandido7994]

Never late to learn something new.

[@CollinBaillie]

Mark, check out Andy at the Off-grid garage. Plenty of learning available there and I can guarantee your existing skills will bolster your ability to pick it up with little effort, and bam! you're in the game.

American electricians do what the did the last 50 years. There is no progress in the US. drill nuts, 1 phase 120 V. Time to evolve.

[@xtremeownagedotcom]

That...... is beautiful. I would give away my left nut to have that setup..... Not- because I need that much power, or three phase, but, the workmanship is outstanding.

I’d give my right nut, it keeps swelling up and causing trouble anyway. I was a Chief Electrical Technician in the submarine service, and that is some fine work!

​@@VictronEnergyBV You're doing a great job so youtube recommends I guess :) I knew you're with Victron somehow but had no idea it's a long term thingy. They did good working with you. Keep up the good stuff and maybe we'll see you again on the boat? :)

[@drteletubby]

Absolutely incredible! I would love to get a solar system with some of Victron's gear at some point. This workmanship is amazing!

[@simmonslucas]

The cable management is impeccable.

[@JosephOster]

Very cool. In other words, the factory itself was contributing to the neighborhood grid failures and this fixed that too? Win-win.

[@MrDingaling007]

Wow impressive. I think victron are the best. Would love to work in that industry putting together such projects.

[@user-dy9ux5dc6e]

Victron does seem to be the best for modularity within large scale projects but I feel like something like an Outback Skybox is far more practice for the everyday jo like you and I.

[@MrDingaling007]

@@user-dy9ux5dc6e Genuinely curious. How so?

[@user-dy9ux5dc6e]

​@@MrDingaling007 I mean I could be wrong.. SkyBox all in one systems costs ~$3,200 though. For a comparable system under Victron you need. 2x MultiPlus-II 3000's ~$1,285 each At least 1 Autotransformer ~$675 Then you have shunt(s), MPPT'(s), sub panels, communication modules, and other accessories. I also feel for the electrician who installs all this. Couple hours for a Skybox vs a couple days for Victron. That's assuming the utility & municipality even approve the designs for such a complicated system in a residential setting. In a boat or an RV where you can DIY the install without worrying about code and permits then yeah Victron all day!

[@MrDingaling007]

@@user-dy9ux5dc6e Interesting thanks for sharing. Is the victron mutliplus the best comparison tho? I think there are some other Victron all in one options that could be a better comparison. Ill have to do some in-depth research.

[@ProjectCamper]

Stunning workmanship

[@markthompson4099]

Unusual to see such fine workmanship overseas, or over here in the US. You can never go wrong with branch fuses. Now look into rapid shut down systems like OUTBACK or Tigo a must to shut down all the power at the panels. This is what I do for a living.

[@hvacstudent967]

4:05 i like the LED Light hanging form the ceiling :D. But Victron Equipment is really a joy to work with. IMHO it has a perfect design, where no one cheaped out on components, so you get good reliablity and good efficiency, but it´s not "over the top" over engineered or to complex. Perfect Balance ;)..

[@luciangpl]

Just simple and functional :)
