Emission Compliance

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits applied by the

local regulations.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference

in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio

frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,

may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no

guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment

does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be

determined by turning the equipment off and on, you are encouraged to try to correct

the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

Disclaimers 2

HANDLING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

During installation, testing and inspection, adherence to all the handling and safety

instructions is mandatory. Failure to do so may result in injury or loss of life and

damage to the equipment.

Safety Symbols Information

The following safety symbols are used in this document. Familiarize yourself with the

symbols and their meaning before installing or operating the system.

WARNING!

Denotes a hazard. It calls attention to a procedure that, if not correctly

performed or adhered to, could result in injury or loss of life. Do not proceed

beyond a warning note until the indicated conditions are fully understood and

met.

CAUTION!

Denotes a hazard. It calls attention to a procedure that, if not correctly

performed or adhered to, could result in damage or destruction of the

product. Do not proceed beyond a caution sign until the indicated conditions

are fully understood and met.

NOTE

Denotes additional information about the current subject.

IMPORTANTSAFETYFEATURE

Denotes information about safety issues.

Disposal requirements under the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)

regulations:

NOTE

Discard this product according to local regulations or send it back to SolarEdge.

IMPORTANT SAFETYINSTRUCTIONS

SAVETHESEINSTRUCTIONS



WARNING!

The inverter cover must be opened only after shutting off the inverter ON/OFF

switch located at the bottom of the inverter. This disables the DC voltage inside

the inverter. Wait five minutes before opening the cover. Otherwise, there is a

risk of electric shock from energy stored in the capacitors.

5 HANDLING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!

Do not remove the StorEdge Interface cover before five minutes have elapsed

after disconnecting all sources of power, and shutting OFFthe inverter and the

StorEdge Interface.

WARNING!

Before operating the system, ensure that the power cable and wall outlet have

been grounded properly.

WARNING!

When handling the battery, adhere to all manufacturer safety instructions.

WARNING!

The battery must be powered off before and during wiring.

To power off the battery:

1. Turn off the circuit breaker.

2. Turn off the disconnect/auxiliary power switch.

To power the battery back on:

1. Turn on the disconnect/auxiliary power switch.

2. Turn on the circuit breaker.

For details, see

Powering the LG Chem Battery Off and On

on page 24.

CAUTION!

This unit must be operated under the specified operating conditions as

described in the technical specifications supplied with the unit.

NOTE

The battery used must be NRTL certified.

NOTE

For battery decommissioning and disposal, follow the manufacturer

requirements and instructions.

NOTE

The StorEdge Interface is IP65 rated. Unused connectors and glands should be

sealed with the provided seals.

NOTE

The symbol appears at grounding points on the SolarEdge equipment. This

symbol may also be used in this manual.

StorEdge Interface Installation Guide MAN-01-00621-1.1

Chapter 1: Overview

SolarEdge’s StorEdge™ solution for Smart Energy Management uses the StorEdge

Interface to connect the battery to the inverter.

Power is stored in the battery and can be used for various applications such as

maximized self-consumption and time of use profile programming. For backup power,

an inverter specifically designed for backup applications is required; this inverter is not

in the scope of this document.

The StorEdge Solution Components

The Inverter - manages the battery and system energy, in addition to its traditional

functionality as a DC-optimized PV inverter.

The Energy Meter - is used by the inverter for export, import, production and

consumption readings, and for Smart Energy Management applications, such as:

export limitation and maximizing self-consumption.

The StorEdge Interface - The StorEdge Interface connects the battery to the

inverter through fuses, and supplies control and monitoring signals to the battery

for operation.

One battery - a DC-coupled battery designed to work with the SolarEdge system.

Figure 1: StorEdge system components

NOTE

Additional SolarEdge inverters (without batteries) can be connected over

RS485. The inverters will participate in export limitation and Smart Energy

Management.

PV modules connected to power optimizers are not mandatory for charge/

discharge profile programming.

Additional References

This document describes basic system connection and configuration - PVsystem

(power optimizer strings), one inverter, one battery, and one meter.

For additional configuration options refer to the StorEdge Solution Applications -

Connection and Configuration Guide, available at:



If your inverter has an LCDdisplay (it is not SetApp configurable), refer to

this guide for StorEdge Interface installation and configuration:

installation_with_LG_and_HD_wave.pdf

Installation Workflow

When installing the StorEdge system, follow this workflow to ensure all the components

are connected and functioning correctly.

Plan the StorEdge system layout:

The battery and StorEdge Interface will connect to the DC side of the inverter.

Since the inverter DC connections are on its left side, it is recommended to

position the battery and interface to the left of the inverter to simplify wiring.

The total distance between the battery and the inverter, including StorEdge

Interface, should not exceed the maximum distance shown in the figure below:
