8. Savant
System Wiring
1.
Provide power to the Host or Director using a UPS.
2. Connect all Savant devices to the network. Example ethernet wiring
is described to the right.
NOTE:
All devices must be on the same subnet.
3.
SEM ONLY:
Wire CT and VT connections to the loads to be
monitored.
The diagram to the right shows the basic Savant wiring for the
Savant Power System.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
–
For deployments with multiple inverters, multiple controllers
may be needed. However only a single Host is supported.
–
For deployments without a panel bridge controller and using
a Director, the Power Modules are paired to the Director using
the Power & Light app. For more information, see the
Savant
Power & Light Deployment Guide
.
Communication Cable
1. Plug the male end of the
Inverter Communication Cable (Sol-Ark)
into the
CANBUS
port of inverter.
2. Use CAT5 ethernet cable to connect the CANBUS port of the Inverter
Communication Cable (Sol-Ark) to the HomeGrid Battery Stack.
3.
SSC-002485 Only:
Plug in the RS232 Phoenix connector to the relay
ports of the SSC-002485.
4. Connect the RS232 port of the
Inverter Communication Cable (Sol-
Ark)
to the RS232 port of the Savant Controller. To the right is an
example wiring configuration.
5. Parallel Inverters: Connect the male end of each adapter cable to each
subordinate inverter.
6. Connect the female end of each adapter cable to additional Savant
Controller RS232 ports.
NOTE:
For systems that require custom wiring considerations, see
Appendix D: Custom V2 Y Cable
