WHERE TO PLACE THE BATTERY
A professional solar installer will mount the AC Battery on the wall and hardwire the unit into your electrical system. You
and your solar installer should keep the following things in mind when choosing a location to install your AC Battery(ies).
•
Choose an easily accessible, well-ventilated, and unoccupied indoor location, such as a garage. This location must
be out of direct sunlight, and ambient temperature must stay between -20° C to 45° C (-4° F to 113° F).
•
The AC Battery is not waterproof, so do not allow liquids to come into contact with the AC Battery. Choose a dry
location unlikely to be affected by rain, humidity, or ooding. Make sure that the area stays within the 5% to 95%
relative humidity, non-condensing range.
•
Ensure that the wall can sustain the weight of the AC Battery and mounting bracket (28kg or 60 lbs per battery).
•
Do not install the AC Battery in a way that will block the vents. The AC Battery must be installed at least 300mm (one
foot) above the ground and at least 300mm (one foot) below the ceiling.
•
Place the AC Battery away from moving objects such as cabinet doors, garage doors, or motor vehicles.
•
Ensure that there are no pipes or electrical wires where your installer plans to drill.

INTERNET CONNECTIVITY
The Enphase AC Battery is intended to operate with an internet connection. Maintaining an internet connection is
important, not only for updating software/rmware, but also for measuring the health of the battery. Failure to maintain
an internet connection may have an impact on the warranty. See enphase.com/warranty for full terms and services.
SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
There are a few safety considerations to keep in mind once the battery is installed. The AC Battery is not designed
to support additional weight, so never rest anything on top of the AC Battery. Even light objects such as drinks could
condense and drip liquids onto the battery. Other objects could block the vents and cause overheating. Do not store
ammable, sparking, or explosive objects near the AC Battery, and make sure there is a working smoke detector in the
room. Keep moving objects that could fall onto or collide with the unit away from the AC Battery.
