enphase IQ Battery - User Manual

QUICK INSTALL GUIDE
(Models ENCHARGE-3-1P-NA and ENCHARGE-10-1P-NA)
Install the Enphase IQ Battery
To install the Enphase IQ Battery 3 or IQ Battery 10 and the Enphase wall-mount bracket, read and follow all warnings and instructions in this guide. Safety
warnings are listed at the end of the guide. These instructions are not meant to completely explain how to design and install an energy storage system. All
installations must comply with the national and local electrical codes and standards. Only qualied electricians shall install, troubleshoot, or replace the
IQ Battery 3 or IQ Battery 10.
The IQ Battery includes the Enphase IQ Battery(ies) with integrated Enphase IQ Microinverters. The Enphase IQ Gateway communication gateway measures
PV production and home energy consumption. The IQ Battery senses when it is optimal to charge or discharge the battery so that energy is stored when it is
abundant and used when scarce. IQ Batteries are capable of providing power backup when an Enphase IQ System Controller is installed at the site.
Five unique installation
scenarios are shown below:
Whole home backup with the
IQ System Controller as service
entrance and PV combiner connected
to IQ System Controller. This is the
preferred conguration for back-up
of the entire main load panel. This
conguration supports up to an 80 A
breaker for the PV circuit and an 80 A
breaker for battery storage.
Whole home backup with the
IQ System Controller as service
entrance and PV combiner connected
to main load panel. This is the
preferred conguration when you back
up the entire main load panel and the
size of the PV combiner circuit is more
than 80 A. In this conguration, the
PV combiner circuit connection space
in the IQ System Controller is left
vacant. When existing PV combiner
circuits are connected to the main
load panel, and you want to add
battery storage to the system, you can
keep the PV combiner connected to
the main load panel and connect only
the battery storage system to
the IQ System Controller.
Partial home backup with main load
panel as service entrance and PV
combiner connected to the
IQ System Controller. When the PV
circuit breaker size is less than 80 A,
this is the preferred conguration for
partial home backup with a subpanel.
