Configuring StorEdge Application

Configuring StorEdge Application
This section describes the StorEdge applications and how to configure the system.

Backup Power Applications

The produced power is stored in the battery to be used during power outages. The StorEdge inverter
senses the grid voltage, and when it is down it automatically switches to Backup mode, disconnecting
from the grid and supplying p ower to the backed-up loads. This application requires connection to the
SolarEdge Auto-transformer and a backed-up loads panel.
This application can be used in one of two ways:
Backup-only – energy stored in the battery is discharged for backup power only
l
Backup with Smart Energy Management– use some of the battery energy for backup
l
power and the rest for maximize self-consumption(MSC) or charge/discharge profile
programming ( for time of use arbitrage) applications. Configuration for backup+MSC
is described herein; for backup + profile programming, refer to
http://www.solaredge.com/sites/default/files/storedge_charge_discharge_profile_
programming.pdf
For more information, refer to the r efer to the StorEdge Applications Connection and Configuration
Guide available at h ttp://www.solaredge.com/sites/default/files/storedge_applications_connection_
and_configuration_guide.pdf.
The Backup application can be used whether or not PV modules are installed at the site.
The backup function is disabled by default and can be enabled for on- grid only
application, if backup is not needed.

System Basic Configuration

To enable Backup functionality:
1. Enter Setup mode to display the main menu:
C o u n t r y
L a n g u a g e
C o m m u n i c a t i o n
P o w e r
B a c k u p
D i s p l a y
M a i n t e n a n c e
I n f o r m a t i o n
2. From the main menu select Backup Conf.
B a c k u p
If disabled (no backup), the function is similar to on-grid (no voltage source, loads are connected to
the main distribution panel) .
3. Select Backup è Enable.
