Here is a the guide I followed, the reverse feed wiring instructions from Charles (circled in red), and a diagram I created. I see 235v on 208v shore power.
Hope this helps!
EDIT - My mistake, I have the 93-IXFMR12I-A. Different model.
7A circulating current, at what voltage? Where will this value be measured from?
I believe the 32A and 100A Victron Autotransformers have the same windings, with a different main breaker rating. So conceivably this effect will be replicated equally on both models.
Hopefully this thread will...
Thank you!
This makes total sense to me now, and corresponds with the 2 wiring options for 240vac generator output from my OP.
The newer wiring diagrams (for the newer model) from Northern Lights confirm this a little more clearly.
I'd like to complete this with option 2, central bonding. I failed to show the neutral bus on my drawing.
The boat has single pole 120v breakers, and all of the neutral conductors run to a neutral bus bar(s). The ground wires from those circuits run to a ground bus bar. (pic attached)

Thanks TT, really appreciate your considerable knowledge and time to respond.
There are no loads connected before the inverter, which has a 50A transfer switch for when shore/generator power is available. I have to manually manage loads while inverting to keep below 2400W continuous.
The...
Thanks for this.
I was concerned that the ground wire which is still connected to V1 (and jumped to U2) would be considered a bonding location. I've pulled the G-N jumper from the Iso transformer and want to be certain that the generator is also wired correctly since my bond is now after the...
Hello TF members,
I'm almost finished a split phase electrical upgrade on my trawler and I'm looking to confirm the correct 240v generator wiring for my system.
12kva Northern Lights genset> 240v 60Hz Multiplus> 100A Autotransformer > Main AC Distribution Panel.
The generator has 2 wiring...
For a booster only, take a look at the Smoothtalker X6 model line.
They are made in Canada and Industry Canada approved.
Had the mobile RV X6 55dB on my previous boat and I can attest that some anchorages went from 0 bars to 1 bar - which is a massive increase.
First post on TF!
Echoing Twistedtree's recommendation as I just completed the 'boost' function wiring on my boat by reverse-feeding the existing Charles Iso-transformer. This was required because of the transformer splitting 208v shore power into 2x 104v circuits. Not good for my 120v...
