CONNECTING THE BATTERY TO THE INVERTER Generation 2 battery only A DC MCB must be installed between the master battery and the inverter of Gen 1 batteries (not less than 100A), this will ensure the inverter can be safely disconnected during maintenance. When connecting a Gen 1 inverter to a Gen 2 battery (9.5kWh), a ring terminal to all in one Please note that a separate DC MCB is not required with Gen 2 batteries as they have one cable must be used.
CONNECTING MID APPROVED METER TO INVERTER COMMUNICATION CONNECTIONS In the system, a mid approved meter must be installed to ensure correct monitoring of the grid power. The Communication/network ports inverter uses this information to decide whether to charge or discharge the battery. The CT clamp that is connected to the mid approved meter must be installed around the live incoming supply to the property, with the arrow pointing in the direction of grid import, in order to monitor the complete consumption of the building.
