4.4.3 Parallel Connection
The inverters can be connected in parallel with several identical devices. To this end, a
connection is established between the devices by means of standard RJ45 UTP cables. The
system (one or more inverters plus optional control panel) will require subsequent
configuration (see Section 5).
In the event of connecting inverters in parallel, the following requirements must be met:
- A maximum of six units connected in parallel.
- Only identical devices may be connected in parallel.
- The DC connection cables to the devices must be of equal length and cross-section.
- If a positive and a negative DC distribution point is used, the cross-section of the connection between the
batteries and the DC distribution point must at least equal the sum of the required cross-sections of the
connections between the distribution point and the inverters.
- Place the inverters close to each other, but allow at least 10 cm for ventilation purposes under, above and
beside the units.
- UTP cables must be connected directly from one unit to the other (and to the remote panel).
Connection/splitter boxes are not permitted.
- Only one remote control means (panel or switch) can be connected to the system.
4.4.4 Three-phase operation
The Phoenix Inverter can also be used in 3-phase configuration. To this end, a connection
between the devices is made by means of standard RJ45 UTP cables (the same as for
parallel operation). The system (Inverters plus an optional control panel) will require
subsequently configuration (see Section 5).
Pre-requisites: see Section 4.4.3.
