Installation Guide
Installation Procedure
The following is the procedure for installing and setting up a new SolarEdge site. Many
of these also apply to modification of an existing site.
1. Connecting Power Optimizers in Strings, page 27.
2. Recording power optimizer serial numbers (optional), page 46.
3. Mounting the inverter, Page 33.
4. Connecting the AC and the Strings to the Connection Unit, page38.
5. Commissioning and activating the installation, page 41.
6. Connecting the inverter to the monitoring platform, page 47.
7. Configuring the inverter, page 49.
8. Installing the EVCharger Cable - Refer to the installation guide supplied with the
product. The cable and holder can be installed at the same time as the inverter or
