The Enpower Smart Switch
The Enphase Ensemble System includes the Enphase Enpower™ smart switch with Microgrid
Interconnection Device (MID) capability, which consolidates interconnection equipment into a single
enclosure and streamlines grid-independent capabilities of PV and storage installations by providing a
consistent, pre-wired solution for residential applications. Along with MID functions, it includes PV,
storage, and generator (reserved for future use¹) input circuits.
To install the Enphase Enpower™ smart switch and the Enphase Enpower wall-mount bracket, read and
