Hey just download the latest version! Google Play or the App Store. Enjoy!

1. IQ Batteries do have an ambient operating temperature range of -20 degC to +55 Deg C. In terms of the actual temperature generated, this is not a data point supplied in the product information. However, having worked with, (and living with!) many IQ Batteries, these have no detectable temperature gain. 2. There is no sound produced by the IQ Batteries. This is because there are no moving parts in an IQ battery (many products have fans, and the IQ Batteries do not require cooling fans). I also suggest talking to your installer for their recommendations for a suitable location. For example, installations here in Australia, no battery can be installed within habitable areas of a house.

Thankyou for the feedback, this is a great suggestion. I will put this on my radar and I will see what I can do I do to build an improved version of this video with more detailed close-ups! Thanks for watching!

Hi Ken , Enphase IQ Batteries can be used to offset consumption for any appliance in the home. Enphase IQ Batteries can reduce the cost of purchasing electricity by using them to power your home's energy consumption for all three phases when the main AC, grid is available. The key to getting the design correct for your requirements is having enough solar to cover your daytime loads, as well as enough solar excess generated by your solar panels to charge the number of IQ batteries you have installed in the home. I recommend talking to the installer of your original Enphase system to get a system design undertaken for IQ Batteries.

Hi Allan, That's correct - the Enphase IQ Battery 5P is IP55 rated. Anything higher than IP44 is suited for outdoor use. Products like IQ Microinverters are IP67 rated as they are permanently enclosed by a double insulated, corrosion-resistant polymer housing. There are 6 x IQ8BAT Microinverters factory fitted inside the IQ Battery 5P. The IQ Battery 5P is designed to be serviceable on the side of your home, so the cover can be removed by your solar installer in the event of an unlikely fault. You can learn more about the IP ratings here: clarionuk.com/resources/ip-ratings/

Hi John, due to the way microinverters work, you will get more output from your solar array every day. The IQ7X Microinverters are a perfect choice for your REC 420-watt panels. Enphase recommends this combination. The recently released REC Alpha Pure-RX solar panels have a higher power rating, and therefore we recommend IQ8X Microinverters.

@@enphase_anz Thanks for your reply. The REC 420AA Pure-R have a max output of 420Watts. The IQ7X have a peak power output of 320VA. The IQ8 have a peak power output of 384VA, which I was initially quoted, allow more output. Unfortunately, just prior to installation, the installation company discovered that you do not supply to IQ8 to Australia to match the REC higher wattage panels. If I had known beforehand, I would have changed my solar panels to match.

There are many ways to install batteries into your home. As you have a lot of flexibility with products, Enphase recommends speaking you the original installer of your solar system. If you don’t know the installer you can also use the Enphase find an installer tool here on the website: enphase.com/en-au/installer-locator

@@enphase_anzam i allowed to use other brands?

It is possible. Depends how good you are with computers. Home Assistant is a home automation setup which can extract the data from the Envoy and from there you can set up triggers for various actions. I have setup a Raspberry Pi running a programme called EnphaseCollector, which gives a webpage interface that can be accessed from anywhere on your network, e.g. continuously on a tablet. It has a useful dial format showing production and consumption. It can also be run on a Mac. Unfortunately there is no integration with Google Home or Alexa. There is a way to extract the data yourself from the envoy, but requires programming skills with python or similar.

Hi Thomas, It sounds like you are located in North America. To get support for your specific question, (as your equipment requirements are different than those of ANZ) I recommend contacting Enphase in your region. This link should help get you to North American support for your questions: enphase.com/support

Hi, Could you explain what is not working in the array tab? If the array hasn't been mapped by your installer they can contact Enphase support for assistance in loading for you. Alliteratively, you can contact Enphase support directly for assistance in getting this rectified. 1800 006 374 (AU) | 09 887 0421 (NZ)

Hi Kevin, Enphase supplies 1phase (Q-RELAY-1P-INT), and also 3phase IQ Relays (Q-RELAY-3P-INT) for installation in microinverter circuits for solar grid connected installations. Either of these products can be used in 1phase or multiphase applications. However, we do recommend using the 3P IQ Relays in three phase sites , as these manage the microinverters across phases, and enable compliance to AS/NZS4777.2 for multiphase site requirements.

You can find this data on the Enphase App. From the homepage, click Menu, System, Devices, then click Battery, click the 'Limited Warranty' link. There it will tell you the discharge cycle count. If you have more than one IQ Battery 5P, you can check for each individual with the same method.

Products that are grid connected and backup the home must be approved and tested to AS/NZS regulations. In the IQ Battery System with IQ System Controller, there is a certified approved smart contactor that opens and therefore disconnects the house from the AC main grid, so that the Enphase System can continue to backup the home with 230V AC power. This certifed protection is called the Microgrid Interconnect Device (MID).

Please contact Enphase Philippines for further information about compatible products: enphase.com/en-ph email: +63 1800 132 00138

IQ8D-Bat are the microinverters integral to the IQ Battery 5P. There are six of these pre-installed in the IQ Battery 5P. These micrinverters create the AC grid, for backup operation of the Enphase Energy System. Please refer to addtitional information here on the Enphase Website: enphase.com/en-au/homeowners/home-solar-batteries

Hi Les, There are different Enphase products for different countries around the globe. The Envoy-S Standard is not a product used in ANZ. Please refer to the North American KZbin Chanel for further information kzbin.info

I think in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6LUgKaIgMeSnqs he says you need to use 2x single phase relays

@@coconutpalm1631 Thanks for your reply, I ended up with 3 solarpanel groups and I used 3x the 1-fase Q-Relay, works great :)

I cant login as it wants UK but UK is not selectable! Sort it out please.

The Q-Relay is a mechanical disconnection requirement for installations using IQ microinverters for ANZ. If you have earlier versions of microinverters: S-series or M-series, then this Q-relay is not required.

@@duncanmacgregor1961 Thank you for the response, much appreciated. For those considering Enphase, I would highly recommend. I've had my S270 based system running flawlessly for 4 years now. 115 panels and inverters, not one issue.
