SolarEdge Home Backup Interface

SolarEdge Home Backup Interface — No backup without it — and it has to match the inverter's phase.

A battery cannot keep a house running through a power cut unless something first disconnects that house from the grid. On a SolarEdge Home Hub system that something is the Backup Interface.

Overview

About the SolarEdge Home Backup Interface

It sits between the incoming supply and the property, and when the grid fails it opens, islands the installation and lets the inverter and battery carry the load.

There are two versions and they are not interchangeable: one for single-phase Home Hub inverters and one for three-phase. Get the phase wrong and the part is no use at all.

Without it the system still stores and self-consumes — it just goes dark with everything else when the grid does.

Compatibility

What does this fit?

This is the device that islands a property so a SolarEdge Home Hub system can back it up.

The Backup Interface is what provides whole-home backup on a SolarEdge Home Hub system. Match the phase: the single-phase interface for a single-phase Home Hub inverter, the three-phase interface for a three-phase one.

For the installer

What the job needs

The details that decide whether this suits the system:

  • One per system, matched to the inverter's phase.
  • The single-phase interface is for single-phase Home Hub inverters; the three-phase interface is for three-phase Home Hub inverters.
  • Without a Backup Interface the system has no islanding and therefore no backup.
  • See the datasheet on this listing for the backup current the interface will carry and the wiring arrangement.
Applications

Where this earns its place

The interface is chosen by the phase of the inverter it serves.

Frequently asked questions

Questions we get asked about this inverter

Do I need one?

Only if the customer wants backup power. Without it the system still stores and self-consumes, but the property goes dark in an outage.

Which one do I order?

Match the phase of the Home Hub inverter: 1PH with 1PH, 3PH with 3PH. They are not interchangeable.

Can it be added later?

Yes, it can be fitted to an existing Home Hub installation.
