    106 kPa. The xStorage Home 3P system must be used at a maximum altitude above sea level of 3000 m (9750 feet). For altitudes above 2000 m, due to the rarefaction of the air, specific conditions may occur which must be considered when choosing the place of installation.

  • Page 13: General Description

    4.1 xStorage Home 3P high voltage hybrid inverter The xStorage Home 3P High Voltage (HV) hybrid inverter (see Figure 1) is a DC - AC solar inverter, designed for use in indoor environments. It has been designed to be used in combination with PV panels and connected to the electricity grid and a high voltage (HV) storage battery to optimize self-consumption.
  • Page 14 This operating mode is mainly indicated in installations where local regulations require a limitation on the energy that is injected in to the grid. Figure 6. Eaton xStorage Home 3P feed in control mode during the day xStorage 1. Pmax In the presence of sunshine, the energy from the photovoltaic system is used primarily to supply the domestic loads and secondly to charge the battery.
  • Page 15 Figure 8. Eaton xStorage Home 3P battery manager mode during the day xStorage In the presence of sunshine, the energy from the photovoltaic system is used primarily to supply the domestic loads and secondly to charge the battery starting from the set charge start time.
  • Page 16 The total power of the loads connected to the EPS output must be within the range specified in the technical data. If the total load is higher, the xStorage Home 3P will enter in protection mode, disabling the output power and signaling the overload event.
