A typical complete installation of the SunRise Home Battery will require the electrical connection of the following  
cables; 

1.

 

Install AC cables from the Main Switch Board (MSB) directly to the terminals inside the SunRise system (Grid 

and EPS/Essential load supplies). Either a single 3Core + Earth cable or two 2C+E cables of sufficient diamter 

for the distance can be used.  

2.

 

Install the supplied current monitor wire (from SunRise system to MSB) to monitor the grid feed-in level. A  

standard Cat5/6 cable can be used. 

3.

 

Connection of up to 2 arrays of PV solar panels to the DC Isolator in the SunRise system. It is important to 

connect the +ve and -ve cables of each string to the correct terminals in the DC Isolator (maximum of 

6.65kW of panels and maximum PV string voltage of 600VDC)  

4.

 

Optional – Cat5E internet cable (to provide more reliable comms for remote monitoring) WiFi is included in 

the system as default.  

 

In addition, the installer will need to 
program the Sungrow inverter for the 
customer’s specific requirements (e.g. 
level of grid-feed allowed by the utility) 
Use either the Sungrow iSolarCloud APP 
operating in local mode or via the 
display panel on the front of the inverter 
(remove the vent cover on the left side 
of the SunRise to access the inverter’s 
display panel)  

Finally, the installer should connect the 
SunRise to the customer’s internet if 
remote monitoring is required. (see 
OEM SunGrow documents included with 
the SunRise system for additional details) 

Note: The SunRise is not designed to act as the customers main switch board (MSB) as it does not include space for 

additional main & customer circuit breakers or RCDs.
