connected in this way, the two units can deliver up to 4,800W of power. To connect them,
please follow these steps:
1. Make sure both AC240 units are turned off.
2. Connect them using the parallel box and AC parallel charging cable.
3. Power on one AC240 unit, and the other unit will automatically turn on.
When you connect the Parallel System to a wall outlet, your device will be energized by
the grid or the system's power frame, depending on its power demand. If the load
demand is less than 4000W, the parallel system can tap into the grid and energize the
load. However, if the load demand is between 4000W and 4800W, the grid needs to be
removed to obtain a more stable output of energy to the load.
Note:
All the settings made on one AC240 unit will be synchronized to the other unit.
If you need to adjust the Max. Grid Input Current, please use the BLUETTI app and make
the necessary changes.
Charge the two AC240s using the Parallel Charging Cable(with parallel box in Optional
Accessories in parallel mode.
When the charging current exceeds 15A, be sure to check that the parallel charging
cable used is capable of carrying the maximum grid input current setting, otherwise
overheating of the charging cable may cause a fire.

Operation time = Battery Capacity (Wh) x DoD x η ÷ (Load Power + AC240
Self-consumption)
Note: DoD refers to the depth of discharge. AC240 works at 95% DoD for longer battery
life.
η is the conversion efficiency of the inverter, typically over 85% for AC240.
The self-consumption of AC240 is approximately 9W.
Please keep in mind that the estimated operation time provided is for reference
purposes and may vary based on actual usage conditions. Factors such as low temperature
and excessive loads can significantly affect the battery capacity, leading to a reduction in
