    2. EP760 Energy Storage System 2.1 Introduction The BLUETTI EP760 is a formidable home energy storage system (ESS) built to provide a robust power solution for your household and light commercial needs. With a remarkable output of 7,600W, the EP760 offers a substantial power supply that can be further customized by connecting LiFePO4 batteries, allowing you to tailor its capacity according to your specific requirements.
  • Page 19: Working Mode

    • Mode 1 If there is already a grid-connected PV system, combine it with the EP760 ESS by means of AC coupling. This setup prioritizes PV power for the load, charges the batteries with excess power, and feeds surplus energy back to the grid.
  • Page 20 In the absence of a PV system, the load is powered by the backup battery. When the battery charge is depleted, the system automatically switches to grid power to continue supplying the load.
