SolarEdge StorEdge Interface SolarEdge StorEdge AC coupled inverter SolarEdge StorEdge 3-Phase Inverters SolarEdge Energy Meter with Modbus Connection Screened Twisted Pair Communication Cable LG Chem RESU H (High Voltage) 7 | 10 BYD Battery Box Premium LVS BYD Battery-Box Premium LVL/LVS BMU BYD Battery-Box Premium LVS ConnectorsSolarEdge’s StorEdge DC coupled storage solution can be used to increase energy independence for homeowners by utilising a battery to store and supply power as needed. To optimise self-consumption, the battery is automatically charged and discharged to meet consumption needs and reduce the amount of power purchased from the grid.
The solution is based on a single inverter for both PV and storage. Existing SolarEdge systems can be upgraded to the StorEdge solution.

SolarEdge Energy Meter with Modbus Connection
The SolarEdge Energy Meter with Modbus Connection measures production, consumption and feed-in to enable export control or limiting (supports G-100 in UK).
A wide range of CTs (current transformers) are available to support residential and commercial installations. Connection to the inverter or Control and Communication Gateway is achieved via RS485.
Highlights:
- High accuracy meter readings (up to 0.5%) for production/consumption readings
- Supplies meter readings to the inverter for Feed-in Limitation
- Suitable for residential, commercial and utility-size installations
- Small and easy to install
Safety Note: CTs must never be operated open-circuit (secondary coil wires disconnected) once installed, whilst on a current-carrying conductor, as dangerously high voltages may occur under these circumstances.

BYD Battery Box Premium LVS
The BYD Battery-Box Premium LVS is a modular lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery pack for use with an external inverter.
Between 1 and 6 battery modules can be used in a single stack to give 4.0 to 24.0 kWh usable capacity.
Alternatively, up to 16 Battery-Box LVS stacks consisting of between 1 and 4 battery modules can be connected in parallel to give a maximum capacity of 256 kWh. Additional LVS modules or parallel stacks can be added at any time to increase capacity.
1 PDU base and cover is required for each battery stack and 1 BMU per system/inverter
- Scalable from 4 kWh to 256 kWh
- Maximum flexibility for any application with up to 64 modules connected in parallel
- Compatible with market leading 1 and 3 Phase Inverters
- Cobalt Free Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) Battery: Maximum Safety, life cycle and power
- Capable of High-Powered Emergency-Backup and Off-Grid Function
- Patented Internal Plug Design Requires No Additional Wiring

Temperature derating: Like many lithium batteries temperature effects how fast the battery can change and discharge. These latest BYD batteries have a very wide operating temperature range and will work at their peak performance ratings most of the time in most installations. Discharging isn't effected much by temperature, charging is effected mostly: below 5°C charge rate will reduce to 0.3C, below -2°C 0.05C.
Note: Commissioning the battery requires a device capable of running the BYD Be Connect App - available for the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
