Energy Hub with Prism Technology F.A.Q.s
SolarEdge Technologies | www.solaredge.com
Q: Since Energy Hub comes with integrated production and
consumption meters are CTs required?
A: External CTs are required only for partial home backup. For whole
home backup, you can use the CTs already installed inside the Backup
Interface.
Q: How far from the utility meter can the inverter be installed?
A: This is driven by code and AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) –
SolarEdge does not have a technical limit.
Q: Is the inverter UL 1741SA certified?
A: Yes.
Q: Will the Energy Hub inverter continue to function and enable grid
outage microgrid islanding even if there is no Internet
communication?
A: Yes, it will go into backup mode without internet.
Q: Will the Backup Interface allow PV, battery and generator to be
used simultaneously, or just battery and generator?
A: Yes. They can all be used at the same time.
Q: Can Smart Energy Hot Water be used to capture energy that would
otherwise be clipped?
A: Yes. Excess solar energy can be redirected to Smart Energy Hot Water
and limit export in the afternoon so you don't use that electricity when
PV is not available.
Q: Can more than one Backup Interface be installed, for example, on
split 400A main panel with two separate 200A main breakers?
A: Yes. One Backup Interface can be used for each 200A sub-panel.
