AEA 5000 - Self-consumption cabinet with storage 1.8 Identification of the AEA 5000 To identify the AEA 5000, a label with a barcode is attached to the inside of the cabinet door. The serial number (SN) is shown in the third row of the table.
AEA 5000 - Self-consumption cabinet with storage 1.9 Operating principle Energy from the renewable source is used for consumption as a priority. If there is excess energy production, it is stored in the battery. If the battery reaches a full charge level, the power of the panel will be limited so as not to send power to the grid (in case of sale to the grid, refer to paragraph 2.4)

2.3 Option: Hot water tank management 2.3.1 Control of the domestic hot water tank The AEA 5000 offers the possibility of controlling a resistive DHW tank in order to optimise the use of photovoltaic energy. If the option is activated, the heating of the hot water tank will take priority over the charging of the batteries.
2.5 Option: Backup output 2.5.1 Management of the backed-up output The AEA 5000 has a back-up output, which provides a temporary source of power in the event of a power failure, voluntary or otherwise. This output is powered when the system is powered up and remains powered if the mains input is cut off.
