Connecting To The Battery - SolarEdge StorEdge SE7600A-USS Installation Manual

Connecting to the Battery

4. Connect the DC wires from the PV installation to the DC+ and DC- terminal blocks, according to the
labels on the terminals:
a.
Insert the wire into the round opening and push to clamp the
b.
Check that the wire is fully inserted and cannot be pulled out easily.w
CAUTION!
Ensure that the Plus (+) wire is connected to the (+) terminal and that the Minus (-) wire is
connected to the Minus (-) terminal connector.
Veillez à ce que le câble Plus (+) soit connecté au terminal (+) et que le câble (-) soit connecté
au (-) terminal.
NOTE
For systems with three PV strings or more, fuses may need to be installed in
both the positive and negative conductors as required by NEC Article 690.9.
For more information, refer to the Technical Note "String Fusing
Requirements in SolarEdge Systems" at

Connecting to the Battery
To simplify the connection process it is advised to connect the battery to the inverter b efore mounting
the battery according to the manufacturer instructions.
Follow these guidelines:
For easy access to battery connectors, it is recommended to connect the cables to the battery and
l
to set all the battery DIP switches to their correct positions while the battery is still on the ground,
before mounting the battery according to the manufacturer instructions). The following procedure is
recommended:
a. Connect all the wires to the battery connection panel
b. Mount the battery
c. Assemble the conduit between the battery and the inverter
d. Connect to the StorEdge Connection Unit.
Measure the necessary length between the StorEdge Connection Unit and the battery for all cables.
l
The maximum distance between the battery and the inverter is 35 ft/ 10 m, when using 24 AWG/ 0.2
2
mm cables for battery control.
Tie and wrap the cables t o avoid pulling them out during mounting.
l
Be sure to adhere to all safety cautions and information in the battery documentation.
l
The battery c onnects to the DC side of the inverter. Since the inverter DC connections are on its left
l
side, it is recommended to position the battery t o the left of the inverter to simplify wiring.
NOTE
For Tesla PowerWall1 - Per NEC requirements, if the battery is more than 5ft/ 1.5m away from the
inverter, an additional external DC switch is required adjacent to the battery.
