Connecting The Battery (Optional) - SolarEdge Energy Bank Installation Manual

Connecting the Battery (Optional)

When installing a battery, connect the DC cables from the battery and from Power
Optimisers to an external combiner box, compliant with local regulation. Then, connect
the cables from the combiner box to the DC terminals inside the inverter's Connection
Unit.We recommend using the SolarEdge combiner box. For installation and connection
instructions see: https://www.solaredge.com/sites/default/files/se-combiner-box-
installation-guide-aus.pdf
For setting up communication between the SolarEdge Home Battery and the inverter,
SolarEdge strongly recommends using SolarEdge Home Network.
Use the following cable types:
DC - two pairs of DC cables - 6 mm
Communication - 0.25 mm
To connect DC cables:
1. Connect one pair of DC cables to the battery, as explained in the installation guide
that comes with the battery.
2. Connect the other ends of the DC cables to the battery input terminals in the
combiner box.
3. Take the second pair of DC cables and connect them to the inverter output
terminals in the combiner box.
4. Connect the other ends of the DC cables to the DC terminals in the Connection Unit.
WARNING!
Make sure to connect the cables at correct polarity. Connecting the cables at
reverse polarity may result in damage to the inverter or battery.
