Installation Equipment List
Standard tools can be used during the installation of the SolarEdge system. The following
is a recommendation of the equipment needed for installation:
Allen screwdriver for 5mm screw type for the inverter cover, StorEdge Connection Unit c over (if

applicable), and inverter side screws
Allen screwdriver for M5/M6/M8 screw types

Standard flat-head screwdrivers set

Non-contact voltage detector

Cordless drill or screwdriver and bits suitable for the surface on which the inverter will be installed.

Use of an impact driver is not recommended.
Appropriate mounting hardware ( for example: stainless bolts, nuts, and washers) for attaching:

the mounting bracket to the mounting surface
o
the power optimizer to the racking (not required for smart modules)
o
MC4 crimper

Wire cutters

Wire strippers

Voltmeter

For installing the communication options, you may also need the following:
For Ethernet:

CAT5/6 twisted pair Ethernet cable with RJ45 connector.
o
If using a CAT5/6 cable spool: RJ45 plug and RJ45 crimper
o
For RS485:

Four- or six-wire shielded twisted pair cable.
o
Watchmaker precision screwdriver set
o

Inverter Transport and Storage

Transport the inverter in its original packaging, facing up and without exposing it to unnecessary shocks.
If the original package is no longer available, use a similar box that can withstand the weight of the
inverter (refer to the inverter weight in the specification datasheet provided with the unit), has a handle
system and can be closed fully.
Store the inverter in a dry place where ambient temperatures are -25°C - +65°C / -13°F - 149°F.
