 MODEL AND 

MINIMUM

 BATTERY CAPACITY

 

The minimum battery capacity that must be connected to the SP PRO inverter varies depending 
on SP PRO model, an overriding minimum battery capacity and the combined maximum generic 
AC Output.  The following table defines the minimum battery capacity for each SP PRO model.

Table 2: Minimum battery capacity per SP PRO model and Total generic AC power 

Note 1: Shaded cells = minimum battery capacity

 

Note 2: – = n/a, maximum power exceeded for that SP PRO model. 

Note 3: Battery capacity is C10 rating. 

Note 4: Round battery capacity up as appropriate to available battery sizes.

 

 
Ensure that the system meets these minimum battery capacity requirements.  Any battery 

combinations larger than the minimum are suitable.
