Very nice, i have done the same things for Circle K carwash machine for years but have no confidence to do it. After this, its a piece of cake. I recommend try to pry that terminal a few times with thin a flat head screwdriver to know which way it goes, be very gentle. The terminal will fully opened when the flat head stuck in the prying hole with a gentle push. Get the wires ferrules if you love the art of wiring. Thank you
Most straight forward example on the net. Thank you! If I was going to AC couple two SE7600 HD inverters to two SMA Sunny Island 6048 Hybrid inverters. Can I swap the AC disconnect 40 AMP breaker for a critical load panel and run my two Solaredges into a 40 AMP breaker in the critical load panel and in a separate breaker run my Sunny Island hybrid inverters that are already connected to a battery bank? The Sunny Islands would act as an automatic transfer switch if the grid goes down and I would activate Frequency Shift to not overcharge the batteries in the event of grid failure. I would also have an automatic transfer switch between the Sunny Island and the generator to turn off any generator grid connection if the grid were down. Thank you
Lots of complexity in this question. Just going off the top of my head (should really look these things up) - you are coupling two systems together, so you need to make sure they will work with each other. 1) Does the Sunny Island inverter send a signal that the SolarEdge would recognize as the grid, when the grid is down? 2) Is the Sunny Island sized large enough that the SolarEdge inverter does not overwhelm it if all power is directed from it to the battery-based inverter when the grid goes down? 3) As long as the entire system (SolarEdge and Sunny Island inverters) are disconnected from the grid during a power outage - sounds like it would work, but would need to see a diagram before committing myself (how's that for hedging my bets?)
John - we have a video on hooking into the service panel (ruclips.net/video/gLsU8tpeP1I/видео.html). From the AC disconnect you run directly to the service panel. Make sure to locate the solar connection as far away from the main on the busbar as possible.
This inverter (the regular SolarEdge) is not battery compatible. They have a version called the StoreEdge that can connect to batteries. Battery connections pretty straightforward (positive to positive and negative to negative). The inverter system also has to have a transfer switch (internal to the inverter or external) that disconnects from the grid when the batteries are engaged.
Probably too late to say this, but do not buy a Solaredge inverter. Mine just failed about 6 years. It was installed in a location without direct sunlight, to keep heat down. Still failed. Replacement labor will be $350. This will probably happen a few more times over the life of the unit. Wish I went with enphase.

Great video, I hadn't found a video that specifically showed how to wire inverters, very clear and informative. Thank you.

You’re the best
This is a great video, thank you very much!

I dont see a sim card in my se3800 its a 2022 verison no screen.
From the ac disconnect, how do you wire the ac into the electrical panel?

@@bluerockstation This is very helpful. It looks fairly easy to do. You are giving me the confidence to tackle this project by myself.
where do you hook the battery bank. The solar array comes into the inverter and the inverter connects and charges the battery bank?

Not many ppl know that you need a specific inverter for certain functions. Thank you
Isn’t the red wire L2? Why is it landed on L1?
red can either be L1 or L2 as long as you are consistent in the circuit.
