Section C - Wiring
Wire the input from
the IQBatteries
1. Use copper conductors sized to meet local code requirements and
voltage drop/rise considerations.
2. Bring in the wires from the IQBatteries.
3. Connect the ground (green or green/yellow) to the ground bar.
4. Connect L1 and L2 (usually one black and one red) from the
IQBattery to the circuit breaker(s). Observe the L1 and L2 polarity
marking at each breaker position.
5. When installing both the PV and IQBattery on the IQCombiner,
it would be easier to install the PV on the lower breaker slots and
IQBattery on the upper breaker slots.
6. Torque all connections as indicated in the table on the previous
page.
7. For IQ8 grid-forming installations (i.e., with an IQ System Controller
3/3G), hold-down kits must be used for the breakers for IQ Battery
circuits as per the NEC code. The IQ Combiner 5/5C SKU's (X-IQ-
AM1-240-5-HDK and X-IQ-AM1-240-5C-HDK) come pre-installed
with the hold down kit.
NOTE: Do not pass conductors from IQBattery5P branch circuits
through the Production CT. This will distort production readings.
