Connection for self-consumption control

The inverter offers the option of connecting consumers to the inverter via an external load relay or directly to the switched outputs (e.g. OUT1).

If the PV or grid excess power is sufficiently high, the switched output is then switched on to access the PV energy that is currently being generated.

Connection options:

Check which connection method is required for the device. For more information, please refer to the manual of the device to be controlled.

For the electrical connection of the self-consumption control, proceed as follows:

INFO

Info

If loads need to be switched and require a higher load at the switched output than 24 V/100 mA, an external load relay must be installed between the inverter and the consumer. No consumers may be connected directly to the inverter.

In the case of loads or consumers that are controlled via a potential-free switching contact (e.g. SG-ready heat pump control or smart home systems), these consumers can be connected directly to the switched output.

Switched output load, potential-free:
Max. load: 100 mA
Max. voltage: 24 V (DC)

  1. De-energise the house grid.
  2. DANGER

    danger

    Risk of death due to electrical shock and discharge!

    De-energise device and secure against being switched on again. De-energising the inverter

  3. Connect the load relay professionally or connect the consumer to the self-consumption control terminal on the Smart Communication Board.
  4. INFO

    Info

    The signal cable is subject to the following requirements:

    Conductor cross-section from 0.2 to 1.5 mm2

    Length of stripped insulation 8 mm

  5. Properly install and connect the other components of self-consumption control.
  1. The electrical connection for self-consumption control has been made. Switch on the inverter.
