The Quattro was chosen because it can accept power from two AC sources &#8211; this allows the bus to plug in to the mains electricity where it&#8217;s available, or a generator, or both. The Quattro takes power from whichever source is active and will ensure an uninterrupted power supply from the battery bank if external power should fail.<\/p>\n<p>The Quattro also has two AC power outlets one of which shuts down when no external power is present. This allows the system to be configured so that non-essential loads will not be supplied if the external power source ceases &#8211; meaning that the batteries do not become depleted by supplying those non essential loads.<\/p>\n<p>Another useful feature of the Quattro takes care of those occasions when there is a short-term demand for high power &#8211; high enough to exceed the output of the connected generator (for example). The Quattro will automatically meet that demand by adding battery power to the AC source &#8211; keeping the generator below its rated limit. No need to buy a huge generator &#8211; and underuse it most of the time! These and many other functions of the Quattro ensure a continuous, worry free power supply to make sure the party doesn&#8217;t end early.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/4.LjubaDrago_Jon_\u017dagar_C.D_136151767-scaled.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-20489\" src=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/4.LjubaDrago_Jon_\u017dagar_C.D_136151767-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/4.LjubaDrago_Jon_\u017dagar_C.D_136151767-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/4.LjubaDrago_Jon_\u017dagar_C.D_136151767-1500x1000.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/4.LjubaDrago_Jon_\u017dagar_C.D_136151767-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/4.LjubaDrago_Jon_\u017dagar_C.D_136151767-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/4.LjubaDrago_Jon_\u017dagar_C.D_136151767-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/4.LjubaDrago_Jon_\u017dagar_C.D_136151767-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/4.LjubaDrago_Jon_\u017dagar_C.D_136151767-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The bus can provide both AC and DC power to consumers, and much care has been taken with the installation &#8211; tinned copper conductors inserted into protective sleeving allows all weather, low temperature, and chafe-protection to ensure that the bus provides years of trouble-free service.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/IMG_20191023_134301_136151833-scaled.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-20492\" src=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/IMG_20191023_134301_136151833-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/IMG_20191023_134301_136151833-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/IMG_20191023_134301_136151833-1500x2000.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/IMG_20191023_134301_136151833-750x1000.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/IMG_20191023_134301_136151833-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/IMG_20191023_134301_136151833-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/IMG_20191023_134301_136151833-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2020\/06\/IMG_20191023_134301_136151833-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The battery is protected with ANL Fuse and by a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.victronenergy.com\/battery_protect\/battery-protect\" target=\"_blank\">Battery Protect<\/a>\u00a0unit &#8211; ensuring that the battery never becomes too deeply drained &#8211; leading to long life, and maintaining their capacity.
