The Philippi Shore Power Unit LAE 234 LGK is a shore power unit for combi inverters with a shore/generator changeover switch (25 A) and integrated consumer isolation during inverter operation for boats with a 230 V onboard electrical system. It is compatible with the Series 200 circuit distribution panels and designed for AC generators up to 6 kW.
- Secure combination of shore power, generator, and inverter in one panel
- Automatic consumer isolation when switching to inverter operation
- Four separately fused 230 V circuits for various onboard consumers
- Monitoring of shore power and onboard voltage via integrated indicator lights and voltmeter
The LAE 234 LGK combines shore power connection, generator feed, and a combi inverter in one unit, automatically switching between the sources. The integrated shore/generator changeover switch (25 A) isolates defined consumers during inverter operation to prevent the inverter from being overloaded. An RCBO protective switch (32 A / 30 mA) protects the entire unit, while three AC mains indicator lights and a 230 V voltmeter display the status of the shore power. Four two-pole thermal circuit breakers (10 A, 230 V / 50 Hz) distribute power to individual consumer circuits.
Connection is via rear terminals; the electrical design is back-of-hand safe for protection against electric shock. The panel must be installed so that the rear is only accessible with tools and is covered. If the feed point is more than 3 m away, the supply line near it must be additionally protected with an MCB circuit breaker (e.g., Philippi LAE 205). The scope of delivery includes a labeling set SKZ for boats and black mounting screws; a set for vehicles (SKZ-MOBIL) is available on request.

The LAE 234 LGK is compatible with the Philippi Series 200 circuit distribution panels and can be supplemented with upstream MCB circuit breakers like the LAE 205 for longer supply lines.
What is the shore/generator changeover switch of the LAE 234 LGK needed for?
It switches between shore power and generator feed and provides integrated consumer isolation during inverter operation, allowing a combi inverter to be safely integrated.
What generator power is the LAE 234 LGK designed for?
The unit is suitable for AC generators up to 6 kW; a more powerful version is available on request.
Is additional protection necessary if the distance to the feed point is greater?
If the distance to the feed point is more than 3 m, the supply line near it must be additionally protected with an MCB circuit breaker (e.g., LAE 205).
How large must the installation cutout for the LAE 234 LGK be?
The installation cutout can be chosen 12 mm smaller per edge than the panel dimensions (W 210 x H 210 mm), i.e., 186 x 186 mm.
