2 mfsu outputting in a network

[Shenzo]

Hi,i made 2 mfsu because my machines need more than 512 eu/t but when i hooked the second the first one stop outputting not solving any problem.
Both are connected to the same cable and each is receiving 300 eu/t from my generators
How can i increase the output?

You need to generate more than 512 EU/t in order for the MFSU to constantly be in use.

MFSU can output 512 each, so if you need a constant 1024 EU/t output, then you need to generate at least 1024 EU/t.

If the demand is not constant you can generate less than 1024 EU/t and the MFSU's will store energy in low demand and supply their full output in peak demand (likely losing stored energy as they do it).

2 MFSU's don't actually output 1024eu/t combined, they output 1024eu/p, henceforth mv transformers don't blow.

I don't see why you have more than one MFSU if the output of one MFSU is greater than the energy input of your entire EU network.

Your MFSUs aren't gonna meet the demand if one or both of them are constantly empty. You can't supply 512 eu/t to all of your machines because you don't have 512 eu/t being generated. Fix that problem first.

Overall, I think you need a better understanding of how EU works.

Sorry i think i didn't explain very well...
i'm generating 600eu/t(300eu/t each) and they are usually full.
the problem is that the machine of Greg Tech keep reseting because there's no constant supply of power and wasting more energy while one mfsu is full and never outputs nothing.
they only start draining when my frame bore is working.
IF it ran out of power it stays 2 minutes charging and then start sending power again

2 MFSU's don't actually output 1024eu/t combined, they output 1024eu/p, henceforth mv transformers don't blow.

wait,so it will output 2 packets of 512eu per tick right?

hoppefully i didn't made any mistake now,
english is my second language.

You need tro upgrade your energy network to handle the increased throughput.

Since you are feeding GregTech machinery, I am assuming you have a MV transformer turning the 512 EU/p from the MFSUs into 4x 128 EU/p, to feed blast furnaces and electrolyzers. And depending on which machines, you might further have a LV-transformer going 128 EU/p -> 4x 32 EU/p.

However, transformers are throughput chokes. They can only perform one transformation per tick. Either they can accept four small packets and make one large, or they can accept one large and send four small. The result is that no MV-transformer will let through more than 512 EU/t per tick, no matter how many sources you have connected and what packet sizes they are sending or what direction you are transforming. The same goes for the LV-transformer, which is limited to 128 EU/t, and the HV-transformer, which is limited to 2048 EU/t.

Your second MFSU is not outputting because the first one is fully satisfying the needs of your single MV-transformer. Build a second one in parallel to the first, and you'll see both MFSU's output.

THANK YOU
so the problem is on the transformers...
i'm really stupid ¬¬

You've got the effect correct, but the reason wrong. They do output 1024eu/T, in 512EU packets each MFSU. Your transformers don't blow because they're able to accept 512EU packets.

Per tick doesn't matter to the wire. Packet size is what matters.
