Install the PV CT sensor on the Solar PV AC breaker with the arrow-mark on the CT pointing in the direction of the
current flow (Solar -> Load). Screw in the M25 conduit adaptor supplied and run the CT cables through corrugated
conduit into the connection zone and insert the connector (RJ11) into port labelled CT PV.
Install the Grid CT sensor on the Utility Grid Mains AC breaker with the arrow-mark on the CT away from the utility
grid (or Grid -> Load). Screw in the M25 conduit adaptor supplied and run the CT cables through corrugated
conduit into the connection zone and insert the connector (RJ45) into port labelled CT GRID.

Cable length on supplied CT clamps is 10m, however, if you need to run a longer cable
the maximum allowable length is 100m.
WARNING! Any exposed CT Cables must be protected within an M25 Electrical
Medium Duty Conduit, to protect it from exposure to the environment.

Energizer Homepower HP- Series - Installation Manual
DRM Functions
For installations in Australia & NZ, The Energizer Homepower (HP-6M/HP-6S) supports a full suite of Demand
Response Management functions (DRMs 0 – 8) that control the inverter power output to comply with utility
regulations. The Main Unit (HP-6M) allows for the connection of a Demand Response Enabling Device (DRED)
from an external source (e.g. energy retailer or distributor) to the Inverter's dedicated DRM port (RJ45). The inverter
receives the MODBUS command & adjusts the power output as per the requirement. The system is compliant with
DRM functions described as per the AS4777 & AS4755 standards (including DRMs 0 – 8) and can be enabled by
Energizer Homepower upon request.

Step 8 – Communication Setup
The Energizer Homepower HP-6 Series uses an integrated communications module that supports 2.4G Wi-Fi, 4G/
LTE and/or Ethernet for internet connectivity and communication with the Energizer Homepower Cloud. When
selecting the method of communication, it is recommended to follow the order of preference where available.
1st 2nd
The HP-6M supports only one method of communication at any one time, ensure that an appropriate
method is selected (either 4G/LTE, Wi-Fi, or Ethernet) depending on the site conditions.
4G/LTE
Activate the 4G/LTE using the Energizer Homepower Installer App.
With the gold contacts of the SIM card facing down, and the notch facing out, insert until a click is felt to ensure it
is locked into place. To remove the SIM, press further into the slot until a click is felt and eject it.
