Connect SolarEdge’s single phase inverters* to a three phase site and enjoy:

Added energy production for reduced electricity bills

Superior safety features

Panel-level monitoring across all phases

With support for the StorEdgeTM backup solutionSingle Phase Solution for Three Phase Residential Sites

HOW DOES IT WORK? One or more SolarEdge single phase inverters are connected to the residential three phase power supply, supplying loads to the connected phase

SolarEdge’s Electricity Meter is uniquely designed to monitor consumption across all three phases

Using the utility net meter, solar production on one phase offsets consumption on the additional phases

Start enjoying lower electricity bills!

Net metering explained

Net metering enables reduced electricity bills by crediting any excess energy produced by the PV system and exported to the grid. The net meter records the imported grid energy consumed by the home as well as the excess energy exported back to the grid. You are paid a feed-in tariff for this excess energy, which helps to cut the electricity bill.

Check with your installer that:

Your local energy utility currently supports net metering, across all three phases of your power supply The size of the installed SolarEdge single phase inverter doesn’t exceed the 5kW phase imbalance limit (2.5kW in WA)

The 2kW of energy exported to the grid offsets the consumption on phases 2 & 3

The StorEdge inverter is connected to the first phase and supplies loads to that phase only, with loads to the other two phases supplied by the grid

The battery can also be discharged to meet the loads on all phases, in order to minimise energy imported from the grid

A SolarEdge meter is connected to all three phases and a three phase utility meter performs the net metering for each phase

THE SOLAREDGE SOLUTION

POWER OPTIMISER SINGLE PHASE INVERTER MONITORING PLATFORM ELECTRICITY METER

By connecting a SolarEdge power optimiser to a PV panel it becomes a smart panel: • Enables more energy to be

produced from each panel • Provides constant feedback on

the performance of each panel • Designed to reduce each panel

to safe 1V level for maximum safety in case of an emergency

A simple and reliable inverter: • Responsible only for DC to

AC conversion, as all other functions are handled separately for each panel by the power optimisers

• Extremely small, lightweight and easy to install

• Suitable for indoor and outdoor installations

The monitoring platform enables: • High level visibility of your

system’s performance • Easy access via mobile

devices • Free monitoring for system

lifetime

Used for production, consumption or feed-in monitoring

CONNECTING THE STOREDGE TM SOLUTION TO THREE PHASE HOMES For new installations, connect the single phase StorEdge inverter for increased self-consumption and backup power

For existing installations with a third-party three phase inverter, connect the single phase SolarEdge AC coupled inverter
