Set up self-consumption control for wallbox

The inverter allows a compatible wallbox connected to the switched output to be controlled. This is a simple and cost-effective solution to increase PV self-consumption by using a wallbox.

Using the switching signal, the inverter can give the wallbox approval for charging or change the charging current specification. For further information on activation, please refer to the wallbox manual.

The period during which the output can be activated can be set based on a 24h period for each day of the week. Charging the electric vehicle is permitted during the set time periods.

With the help of an AND or OR link, the approval to charge the electric vehicle can additionally be combined with the PV power or grid excess power.

This makes it possible to charge an electric vehicle directly from PV. Charging the connected battery is given secondary priority. This means that the electric vehicle is charged first via the wallbox and only then is the storage system charged.

It is not possible to use the storage system connected to the inverter when the output is active.

Parameter

Explanation

Allow vehicle charging during the following periods

The table allows configuration of the time periods in which the electric vehicle may generally be charged. The time periods can be set via mouse click/tap.

The first click sets the start time and the second the end time. Then select the function (active/inactive).

Link

Select No/AND/OR linkage.

If No linkage is selected, the lower switching settings based on power and the wallbox enable are greyed out.

Switch output based on

Grid excess: There is excess available at the grid connection point.

PV power: Excess PV is available.

Wallbox enable if power [W] >=

Activated when the power is greater than the set value.

Minimum run time [min]

The switched output remains active at most until the set time has been reached.
