General Information
About PWRcell Battery
The PWRcell battery is the storage component of the
PWRcell system. The battery can be used for grid-
connected solar applications, such as self-supply, rate
arbitrage and clean backup power. The battery is
designed to work seamlessly with PV Links and the
PWRcell inverter to form the PWRcell system for grid-tied
solar-plus-storage.
All PWRcell products use the REbus 380VDC nanogrid
to con
nect to each other. The REbus nanogrid automates
the flow of power to enable plug-and-play setup and
operation of PWRcell equipment.
In Figure 2-4, a REbus-compatible PWRcell inverter (E)
is dir
ectly connected to PV Link (B) and PWRcell battery
(C) on the DC (REbus) line (D). To the right of the inverter
are AC lines: 240VAC or 208VAC for grid and home
loads (G), and protected load (H) support up to 50A.

Communication
All communication between REbus devices takes place
over the REbus conductors using Power Line Carrier
(PLC) communication. No additional communication
wiring or equipment is required for communication
between a PWRcell Inverter, PV array, and/or other
REbus enabled batteries.
System Operational Modes
The PWRcell system has several operational modes
available for various installation configurations, markets,
and applications. Operational modes are selected
through the PWRcell inverter control panel. The inverter
prioritizes the distribution of power differently based on
the selected operational mode.
See the Generac PWRcell inverter installation and
o
peration manuals for complete instructions on
configuring the entire system for each operational mode.
Inverter Control Panel
See Figure 2-5. The battery is controlled through the
PWRcell inverter control panel. Use the inverter control
panel to enable or disable the battery, and to set the
operational mode for the system. See the Generac
PWRcell Inverter Owner’s Manual for more information
on settings and display screens.
