Frequently Asked Questions
How do I connect a hybrid inverter to MAXBAR+?
Hide ShowWhere there is a hybrid inverter with DC coupled battery, connect AC circuit to solar position on the MAXBAR+.
In this instance, the battery position on MAXBAR+ can be used for the second solar system or sub board.
Please ensure to affix the appropriate sticker, provided in the New Energy Protection Kit, to MAXBAR+ and the enclosure.
Can the battery & solar MCB's from the New Energy Protection kits be replaced for different current ratings?
Hide ShowYes, solar & battery MCB's can be replaced for higher or lower current ratings as long the combined potential current from solar and battery does not exceed 100A.
What are the most suitable enclosures for MAXBAR+?
Hide ShowThe most suitable enclosure for MAXBAR+ busbars are Clipsal MAX9 Type 3 plastic enclosures due to 150mm spacing between din rails.
For comprehensive list of suitable Clipsal enclosures, refer to MAXBAR+ Complementary Technical Guide.
What makes MAXBAR+ different to other busbars?
Hide ShowMAXBAR+ is specifically designed to help protect switchboards against overloading from multiple energy sources including grid, solar, battery & in the future EV to grid.
MAXBAR+ groups all energy sources on to one busbar then distributes outgoing energy via the dedicated home circuit.
MAXBAR+ comes with predefined positions for circuit protection devices to ensure that current flowing on the busbar does not accumulate from multiple energy sources & therefore protect against overloading.
Can the EV charging RCBO be replaced with a different current rating?
Hide ShowYes, the EV charging RCBO can be replaced with lower current rating if required.
Clipsal recommends 40A circuits with appropriately sized cable to avoid any potential nuisance tripping.
Can circuit protection devices in New Energy Protection Kits be repositioned on MAXBAR+?
Hide ShowMAXBAR+ comes with predefined positions for circuit protection devices to ensure that current flowing on the busbar does not accumulate from multiple energy sources & therefore protect against overloading, aided by pictograms
MAXBAR+ is intended to future-proof switch boards for new energy sources like solar, battery & EV to grid.
Is MAXBAR+ cuttable?
Hide ShowNo, MAXBAR+ is specifically designed not to be cut.
MAXBAR+ is intended to future-proof switch boards for new energy sources like solar, battery & EV to grid.
Where space in existing switch boards is limited, Clipsal recommends the use of an appropriate sub board.
Can you bottom feed MAXBAR+?
Hide ShowNo, MAXBAR+ is designed to be fitted to top side of Clipsal MAX9 circuit protection devices.
How do I connect two solar invertors to MAXBAR+?
Hide ShowWhere there are two solar inverters, connect the second inverter to the battery position on the MAXBAR+.
Please ensure to affix spare solar sticker, provided in the New Energy Protection Kit, to MAXBAR+ and the enclosure.
Is Clipsal MAXBAR+ compatible with all battery backup systems?
Hide ShowIssue:
I am adding MAXBAR+ to a house with existing battery backup system
Resolution:
MAXBAR+ is compatible with most battery systems currently on the market, however some systems use a separate backup interface/gateway which may have built in metering.
Using MAXBAR+ in these instances could cause issues with the battery systems app as the metering could be bypassed.
Is it possible to connect a second sub board to MAXBAR+?
Hide ShowIssue:
I am adding MAXBAR+ to a house with 2 sub boards
Resolution:
Where there is just one inverter, then a second sub board can be connected to battery position on MAXBAR+.
Please ensure to affix spare sub board sticker to MAXBAR+ & enclosure provided in New Energy Protection Kit.
Are the teeth covers the same for MAXBAR & ResiMAX busbar?
Hide ShowIssue:
Instead of throwing out teeth covers, can they be reused on other busbars
Resolution:
Yes, they are the same MAXBAR & ResiMAX busbars - RMXPT120 (set of 20).
How to enable/disable C-Bus power supply for 5516RVF
Hide ShowThe integrated C-Bus Power Supply can be enabled or disabled via the front panel by performing a short press on the top right channel button whilst holding down the top left channel button to toggle the enabled state.
By default, the integrated 200 mA C-Bus Power supply is disabled.
The enabled status of the integrated C-Bus power supply is shown on the Unit indicator.
(Green - Enable, Yellow - Disable).

|
Dear SpaceLogic C-Bus Community, We want to notify you about a critical security update for the Wiser 2 app. This update will affect users as the app will no longer support the unsecured Remote Connection feature, which allows connection to the mobile app from outside the home. Users of the Wiser 2 app will receive a push notification about this update in early January 2024, and the new app with the security update will be available for download in February 2024. This update impacts Wiser 1, Wiser 1.5, Wiser MK II, and SpaceLogic C-Bus Home Controller users, with actions varying depending on the controller installed in the system. The push notification that will be sent to Wiser 2 app users in early January, will guide them to a non-indexable web page for details based on the controller they have in their installations. Please refer to the following link for more information: https://www.clipsal.com/wiser-customer-support/wiser-c-bus-security-update We kindly request that you disseminate this information to your customer support teams. Thank you, |
