F.A.Q
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is my rooftop solar system covered by warranty?
Yes it certainly is. Each panel type typically gets a 25 year performance warranty and at least a 10 year manufacturing warranty, depending on the panel chosen. Jinko panels offer a 10 year manufacturing warranty, QCells panels 12 years, and SunPower panels offer a 25 year manufacturing warranty (parts and labour).

I have single phase power, how much rooftop solar PV can I install on my roof?
If your house is single phase power, the amount of rooftop solar PV that you can install will depend on your electricity network provider, as each electricity network provider has different rules.
In almost all instances, you can install more inverter capacity than what the electricity network provider says, so long as you grid export limit your solar PV system. Note: Not all inverters have grid export limit capability.
Below is a table showing the allowed capacity (inverter capacity and your grid export limit), for each of the electricity network providers for single phase households:
SA Power Networks (SA) max 10kW inverter capacity, 5kW export limit Powercor (VIC) no inverter limit, 5kW export limit CitiPower (VIC) no inverter limit, 5kW export limit Ausnet Services (VIC) max 10kW inverter capacity, 5kW export limit United Energy (VIC) max 10kW inverter capacity, 10kW export limit Jemena (VIC) max 10kW inverter capacity, 10kW export limit Energex (QLD) max 10kW inverter capacity, 5kW export limit Ausgrid (NSW) max 10kW inverter capacity, 10kW export limit EVO Energy (ACT) max 10kW inverter capacity, 5kW export limit -
I have a two phase site (not SWER) and I am installing a single phase inverter on one of the phases. What smart meter do I use in this scenario and can I do export limiting?
If export limit needs to be done on this site across all the phases then a three phase smart meter will need to be used. If the DNSP doesn’t require export limitation on each of the individual phases then it’s better to use a three phase smart meter because it will export limit once considering the total consumption across all the phases added together.
Key Features
Single-phase hybrid inverter with 4 MPPTs
This inverter is designed for single-phase systems, typical in Australian homes. It features four Maximum Power Point Trackers (MPPTs), allowing it to optimise solar energy harvest across different roof orientations or shading conditions, improving overall system efficiency.
Battery-ready for future expansion
As a hybrid inverter, it supports both solar generation and battery storage. You can start with just solar panels and add a battery later without needing to upgrade the inverter—making it a cost-effective, future-proof solution.
Built-in EMS for advanced energy management
The integrated Energy Management System (EMS) provides intelligent, real-time control over your energy flows. It helps you prioritise self-consumption, manage grid interaction, and optimise your system for savings and performance.
Supports both grid-connected and off-grid setups
The inverter is compatible with both on-grid and off-grid applications. In the event of a grid outage, the system can continue supplying power from the battery or solar, ensuring uninterrupted energy supply.
Multi-source black start for backup reliability
This feature allows the inverter to restart the energy system independently after a complete shutdown by drawing power from solar panels, batteries, or other sources—without relying on the grid.
High DC/AC ratio (up to 2:1)
A high DC/AC ratio means you can install more solar panel capacity than the inverter's rated output. This allows greater energy production during peak sun hours, maximising efficiency and return on investment.
Durable IP66-rated enclosure
With an IP66 rating, the inverter is fully protected against dust and strong water jets, making it suitable for installation in both indoor and harsh outdoor environments.
10-year manufacturer warranty
The product comes with a 10-year warranty, reflecting the manufacturer’s confidence in its durability and offering long-term assurance for homeowners and installers alike.
