Frequently Asked Questions - SE4000HRWS00BNO4 SolarEdge

How to connect the LG Chem battery to the inverter?

Use a shielded twisted-pair cable with 3 pairs for RS485 connection (pins: CAN_H, CAN_L, EN_GND, ENABLE_H, RS485_H, RS485_L) and a 5-pair cable for Enable. Follow the connection diagram in the manual.

How to configure the DIP switches?

Set the left DIP switch of the inverter to OFF if a meter is connected, otherwise to ON to terminate the RS485 bus. The meter must have its DIP 2 set to ON.

How to perform a battery self-test?

In SetApp, go to Commissioning > Maintenance > Diagnostics > Self-test > Battery Self-test > Run test. Make sure the circuit breaker and ON/OFF/P switch are set to ON.

What to do if the self-test fails?

Check the power and communication cables between the battery and the inverter. If charging or discharging fails, or if communication is lost, tighten the connections.

How to configure maximum self-consumption (MSC)?

In SetApp, select Commissioning > Power Control > Energy Manager > Energy Control > Maximum Self-Consumption.

How to check the connection to the monitoring platform?

In SetApp, go to Commissioning > Status and verify that 'S_OK - Server Connected' appears in the main inverter section.

Which cables to use for the RS485 connection?

Use shielded twisted-pair cable with 3 pairs, cross-section 0.2-1 mm², 600V, CAT5.

How to disconnect the battery?

First turn off the circuit breaker, then the disconnect switch or auxiliary power switch of the LG Chem battery.

How to add an energy meter via SetApp?

In SetApp, go to Commissioning > Communication > RS485-1 > Add Modbus device > Meter. The meter is automatically identified.

What information to provide to SolarEdge technical support?

Provide the model and serial numbers of the inverter and optimizer, system configuration (modules, strings), and communication method.

Revision History

Revision 1.2 (December 2019) – Spanish translation added.

Overview

This document provides instructions for wiring and post-installation verification of a StorEdge system with the following components:

■ StorEdge Single Phase Inverter with HD-Wave Technology and SetApp Configuration
LG Chem RESU7H/RESU10H Battery
Energy Meter

For more details and additional system configurations, refer to the StorEdge Inverter Installation Guide supplied with the StorEdge Inverter.

CAUTION!

For proper battery performance, the LG Chem battery must remain connected to the StorEdge Interface and in charging mode. Extended battery disconnection may result in deep discharge and damage the battery.

Wiring the System

Powering off the Battery

WARNING!

The LG Chem battery must be powered off before wiring.

LG Chem batteries are available with one of the following powering mechanism types: With the disconnect switch With the auxiliary power swit

Circuit breaker Disconnect switch

Circuit breaker Auxiliary power switch

→ To power off the battery:

1. Turn off the circuit breaker.
2. Turn off the disconnect/auxiliary power switch.

→ To power on the battery:

1. Turn on the disconnect/auxiliary power switch.
2. Turn on the circuit breaker.

Connecting System Components

Connect the system components as shown in the diagram below.

Pay attention to:

Cable types
DIP switch setup

If no Energy Meter is connected, terminate the inverter's RS485 bus by switching the left DIP switch ON.

Post Installation Verification and Configuration

Use the checklist below to verify that the system is properly connected and configured.

Installation and Wiring

1. Make sure the distances between the system components are as specified in the installation guide.
2. Take a picture of each of the system components after wiring them and send the pictures to SolarEdge support.

Inverter
StorEdge Interface
Battery
Energy Meter

1. Make sure the battery splash cover is closed.
2. Make sure the DIP switches of all components are set as shown in the connection diagram.

3. Make sure all DC, communication and AC cabling connections are completed as follows:

4. Check the AC wiring and the AC circuit breaker on the AC distribution panel.

5. Check the string DC input voltage. Expect 1V per optimizer in a string.
   ■ Make sure all components are properly grounded.
6. Check the DC connections on the battery and StorEdge Interface.
7. Check the RS485 connection between the battery and inverter.

8. Check the CT, AC and RS485 connections to the Energy Meter.

9. Check connection to Monitoring Platform:

In SetApp, select Commissioning > Status.
- Check that S_OK - Server Connected appears in the main inverter section.

Configuring the Battery and Meter

1. Switch the inverter ON/OFF/P switch to OFF.
2. Access SetApp and select Commissioning > Communication.
3. From the Communication screen, select RS485-1 > Protocol > Modbus (Multi-Device).
4. Return to the previous screen and select Add Modbus Device > Battery.
5. Verify the battery information by selecting Battery 1 > Battery Information.
6. In the RS485-1 screen, select Add Modbus Device > Meter.
7. Set the meter's CT Rating according to the CT specifications. If the CT rating value returns to 0, check communication with the CT.
8. Select Meter 1 > Meter Function > Export+Import (E+I).

9. Run a battery self-test:

■ Make sure the battery's circuit breaker switch is ON.

- Switch the inverter ON/OFF/P switch to ON.

- Wait for all tests to complete and check the results in the summary table.

If any of the tests have failed, see the table below for possible solutions:

Test Results	Solution
Charge failed	Check that the power and communication cables between the battery and inverter are properly connected.
Discharge failed	Check that the power and communication cables between the battery and inverter are properly connected.
Communication	Check that the communication cables between the battery and inverter are properly connected.
Inverter switch is off	Switch the inverter ON/OFF/P switch to ON.

To show the last test results:

■ Select Commissioning > Maintenance > Diagnostics > Self-Test > Battery Self-Test > Show Last Results.

Setting up the Maximize Self-consumption (MSC)

1. Access SetApp and select Commissioning > Power Control.
