• When only using it to measure the PV generation power:
Connect the SunnyHomeManagerto the common connection point of all PV inverters in the household grid.
Information: To measure the grid exchange capacity, an SMAEnergyMeter must be installed at the point of
interconnection.
• When only using it to measure the grid exchange capacity:
connect the line conductor L1 and the neutral conductor to the screw terminals at the input of the
SunnyHomeManager. Open each screw terminal using a cross-head screwdriver, insert the conductor into the
contact terminal and tighten the screw (torque: 2.0Nm).
8.2.3 Connecting the Voltage Supply greater than 63A
Current transformers must be installed for a voltage supply >63A.

Figure 6: The following figure shows a connection example in TN and TT utility grids in the case of installation at the grid-connection point.
Additionally required material (not included in the scope of delivery):
☐ 3 x current transformer (recommendation: 5A secondary current, accuracy class at least 1)
☐ Connection cables for current transformers
Procedure:
1. Disconnect the connection point from voltage sources and make sure it cannot be reconnected.
