Device network of KOSTAL inverters

Up to 10 KOSTAL inverters can be used as a device network in the same house grid.

Note that

• there may be a maximum of one battery storage unit in the device network.
• This must be connected to a PLENTICORE plus or PLENTICORE BI.
• If an ENECTOR is connected to the KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter, a PIKO MP plus cannot be integrated into the system as a PV inverter.

The KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter is required for power monitoring or dynamic limitation of the feed-in capacity (e.g. to 70 %) at the grid connection point. This is installed at the grid connection point in the house grid as shown in the illustrations on the following pages.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Nature and source of hazard

If a battery storage unit is being used in the system, the feed-in capacity can be limited to up to 50%. Note this when configuring the settings in the Webserver menu of the KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter.

INFO

In this variant, the KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter runs as a master and transmits data to all KOSTAL inverters in the house grid.

In a device network comprising multiple inverters, the data is merged in the portal. Correct and complete visualisation can only be found in the KOSTAL Solar Portal and in the KOSTAL Solar App and not in the individual inverter. Please add all KOSTAL inverters and the KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter to the same PV system in the KOSTAL Solar Portal.

You have these options

The wiring can be structured as follows:

1. Device network comprising PV inverters and a hybrid or battery inverter.
2. Device network comprising PV inverters.
