Install the Enphase IQ Battery system
To install the Enphase IQ Battery 3T or IQ Battery 10T system and the Enphase wall-mount bracket, read and follow all warnings and instructions in this
guide. Safety warnings are listed at the end of this guide. These instructions are not meant to be a complete explanation of how to design and install an energy
storage system. All installations must comply with national and local electrical codes and standards. Only qualified electricians shall install, troubleshoot, or
replace the IQ Battery 3T or IQ Battery 10T.
The IQ Battery system includes the Enphase IQ Batteries with integrated Enphase IQ Microinverters. The Enphase IQ Gateway measures PV production and
home energy consumption. The IQ Battery system senses when it is optimal to charge or discharge the battery so that energy is stored when it is abundant
and used when scarce. IQ Battery systems are capable of providing backup power when an Enphase IQ System Controller is installed at the site.
Five unique installation scenarios are shown:
1. Whole home backup with IQ System
Controller as service entrance and
PV combiner connected to IQ System
Controller. This is the preferred
configuration for back up of the entire
main load panel. This configuration
supports up to an 80 A breaker for the
PV circuit and an 80 A breaker for battery
storage.
NOTE:
1. For the M215/M250 connection to Enphase
Energy System, refer to the
tech brief.
2. M Series Microinverters require IQ Gateway.
2. Whole home backup with IQ System
Controller as service entrance and PV
combiner connected to main load panel.
This is the preferred configuration when
you back up the entire main load panel
and the size of the PV combiner circuit is
more than 80 A. In this configuration, the
PV combiner circuit connection space
in IQ System Controller is left vacant.
When existing PV combiner circuits are
connected to the main load panel, and
you want to add battery storage to the
system, you can keep the PV combiner
connected to the main load panel and
connect only the battery storage to IQ
System Controller.
3. Partial home backup with main load
panel as service entrance and PV
combiner connected to IQ System
Controller. When the PV circuit breaker
size is less than 80 A, this is the preferred
configuration for partial home backup
with a subpanel.
