00 Title
4.1 xStorage Home 3P Hight Voltage Hybrid Inverter
The xStorage Home 3P High Voltage (HV) hybrid inverter (see Figure 1) is a DC - AC solar inverter,
designed for use in indoor environments. It has been designed to be used in combination with PV panels
and connected to the electricity grid and a high voltage (HV) storage battery to optimize self-consumption.
In the event of a temporary or permanent power outage, the xStorage Home 3P automatically enables
the off-grid operation on the EPS port supplying, with the backup energy, the part of the home system
connected to it.
All adjustment and control operations can be performed on the LCD (touch screen) located on the front of
the xStorage Home 3P.
4.2 Operating modes
The xStorage Home 3P HV hybrid inverter can operate in different operating modes in order to meet the
specific needs of the user.
4.2.1 “SELF-CONSUMPTION” Mode
This operating mode is mainly indicated in installations with a low tariff for the energy fed into the grid
and a high cost for the energy purchased from the distributor.
Figure 20. Eaton xStorage Home 3P self-consumption mode during the day
In the presence of sunshine, the energy from the
photovoltaic field is used primarily to supply the
domestic loads and secondly to charge the battery.
Further energy in excess is transferred to the grid.
If the energy required by the loads is high and the
available energy from photovoltaic field and battery
is not enough, the remaining part is taken from the
grid.
