CSS-OD 197 to PCS050 Cable Kit (1 per battery inverter).
SolarEdge Commercial Storage cable kits — One per inverter, always — and a second kit only when two cabinets share one inverter.
A CSS site has two cabling questions and these are the answers to them, in the order they come up.
About the SolarEdge Commercial Storage cable kits
Every PCS050 battery inverter needs one CSS-OD 197 to PCS050 cable kit to reach its cabinet. That is one kit per inverter, without exception, and it is easy to leave off a schedule because the cabinet and the inverter are both complete products in themselves.
The second question only arises when a single PCS050 is carrying two battery cabinets, which is the maximum the inverter supports. That arrangement needs the cabling extension kit as well. At 1:1 it is not required, and the 204 kWh system package already includes it.
What does this fit?
This is the cabling between a CSS battery cabinet and its PCS050 inverter.
Two different kits, and they are not alternatives. One cable kit is needed per battery inverter, always. The extension kit is needed only where one PCS050 is connected to two battery cabinets.

What the job needs
The details that decide whether this suits the system:

- The cabling extension kit is required only where one PCS050 is connected to two battery cabinets.
- The 204.8 kWh system package already includes the extension kit — do not order it twice.
- Maintain a 1:1 or 2:1 cabinet-to-inverter ratio. Two cabinets is the maximum per inverter.
