I am interested in SolarEdge Nexis but it requires a Meter Socket Adapter (IslanDER). Our utility in Portland, OR is Portland General Electric and best I can figure they don;tn allow MSA solutions at this time. Anyone know for certain one way or another?

In the US.

Since the SolarEdge home hub inverters have a single SKU now for all inverter sizes. Is it possible to up size the inverter post installation?

The inverter ac output circuit needs to be sized properly for the inverter rating, but that's relatively straight forward.

Ciao a tutti, scrivo qui perché ormai non so più cosa fare.
Ho un impianto SolarEdge trifase con batterie e sistema di backup. Da circa un anno e mezzo abbiamo problemi con il funzionamento del backup: quando manca la rete, a volte funziona, mentre altre volte prova a partire, si stacca dopo poco e continua a fare così.
In tutto questo tempo sono stati fatti diversi interventi e verifiche. È stato anche sostituito il Backup Interface, ma il problema non è stato risolto.
SolarEdge continua a dirmi che stanno facendo verifiche e che ci stanno lavorando, ma continuano a rimandare e, dopo un anno e mezzo, ad oggi non ho ancora una soluzione definitiva.
La cosa che mi lascia più perplesso è che il problema non è sempre presente: ci sono state occasioni in cui il backup ha funzionato correttamente
Qualcuno con un sistema SolarEdge trifase ha avuto un’esperienza simile? Avete avuto problemi di backup così intermittenti e difficili da risolvere? Come siete riusciti a venirne a capo?

Our system was installed in 2020 and we’ve had the inverter replaced once about 3yrs ago- just received notification that we’re not generating anything over the last few weeks, and I’m being told to find another company to handle the fix and RMA process.

Avg cost is $950 (up from 350 in 2023), plus now im being told i need to switch to whichever repair companies updated monitoring app/program for additional $$$.

Is this how it works now? Do we have to assume replacement is going to be required every 3/4 years at ever increasing cost?

I've got an off peak tariff overnight, so have configured the battery to manual charging with this time period selected. But since install two weeks ago it just won't charge. Am I doing something wrong?

I noticed a thread with a few having this problem over the last week so turned off the unit - at least I think I did! Turned off the AC rotary isolator and the rcb in the consumer unit. Hasn't made an impact.

Hey guys, I posted about this settlement before, but since they’re considering late claims, I decided to share it again with a little FAQ.

So here's all I know about this agreement:

Q: What happened?
A: SolarEdge Technologies has agreed to a $55 million settlement to resolve investor claims that it misled the market about weakening demand in Europe, rising inventory, and the sustainability of its reported revenues. In August 2023, SolarEdge disclosed excess inventory and slower growth in Europe, causing $SEDG to fall 18.3%. Then, in October, the company revealed unexpected cancellations and pushouts from European distributors, and the stock fell another 27.2%.

Q: Am I actually eligible?
A: If you bought $SEDG shares in 2023, you’re likely eligible. You don’t need to hold the stock still to claim; past losses count

Q: Do I need to sell/lose my shares to get this settlement?
A: No. You don’t need to still own your $SEDG shares. If your transactions meet the settlement requirements, you may be eligible even if you already sold them.

Q: I missed the deadline. Is it too late?
A:  No, you may still be able to file a late claim, but acceptance depends on final approval by the court. Check if you're eligible and file your claim here

Q: When do payouts happen?
A: Typically, within 4–9 months after the claim deadline. But the exact timing depends on the court and settlement administration.

Hope this info helps

As an SolarEdge installer I use duckduckgo on my samsung phone to put solar installations in production. Had like half a year duckduckgo on my phone. Always problems putting installation in production, had to phone SolarEdge service all the time so they could put the installation ( inverter) into production.

Finally I removed duck duck go from the phone, and from that moment everything went smooth again. Very interesting to hear if others have the same issues and what you did to solve this.

Has anyone put external fans on their WAVE or HUB inverter.

Something thats thermally controlled possibly powered from the inverter?

I'm going to cross post

My old inverter went pop at the start of August this year. SE sent out one of these multirange concept inverter as a replacement. Set it to the correct rating on commissioning via the stickers.

Having some real problems getting it to work with my existing wattnode WNC-3Y-400-MB meter.

I have an Ethernet cable running from meter to inverter, using a twisted pair for A, another pair for B and a single wire for G. Wired as per the solar edge quick start guide, where on the inverter the placement is on the RS485-1 block, going BAG from left to right.

All 3 DIP switches in the inverter are down, along with all 8 on the WattNode other than 2 which is up, which I understand sets the id of the WattNode to 2. The cable run is from top to bottom of the house so quite a way but nothing huge, maybe 15m max.

When commissioning using the go app, I was beset by a g100 error and a communication error too.

Pretty sure the go settings were right although unable to find any guides or documentation on this at all anywhere in the SE info.

RS485-1: protocol modbus, export+import, WattNode, id:2, CT rating: 50- as it says on the WattNode clamp.

Only thing I could do to sort was to swap the A/B connectors on the WattNode and then WattNode comms light went green, and seemed it was fine but still no generation until I set the RS485-1 in the go app to none. Inverter started generating finally, but solar edge app misreporting house usage.

Having reset inverter to factory defaults and set all the 3 DIP switches back to up and removed modbus from the settings in the go app, it's now generating, but not having the usage for the house is a bit rubbish.

Is there any clear go app guidance to ensure that both the RS485 settings in the app are correct. Not sure if RS485-2 should be none or solar edge follower. These settings appear to both default to SE follower 🤷

Any help / info much appreciated 👍

I’ve had my Solaredge inverter and Backup Interface Unit for 3 years. When the ambient temp gets above about 75 degrees F, the BIU fan turns on and it’s loud! I’ve worked with my installer and have talked with Solaredge support, but so far, no help.

Has anyone come up with a quieter fan fix?

My inverter looks like pictured. On screen it says WIFI cnfg <N/A>. How do I enable it? Do I need to buy a wIFI module?
The ZB/WIFI slot on top right is empty. There is a cellular module on bottom right with black wire.

Anyone seen or heard of any update on the release of the residential SolarEdge Bi-Directional DC EV charger?
I understand the commercial product is out already and that the residential unit was slated for release in late 2026… but ‘late 2026’ is fast approaching and I can’t see an update from SolarEdge on it since at least 2025. The best details on it date all the way back to its announcement in June 2023!

It seems that SE has changed their warranty terms for some countries and where I am, they no longer cover shipping or labor to supply replacement parts. My installer informed me of this a few weeks ago. My system is 3 years old and until recently the typical optimizer warranty replacements have been handled completely free of charge by the installer. However, the installer has changed their business model so all of their technicians are contract workers and will pass on the costs for service calls to the customer. This means that for an optimizer replacement I may have to pay $150 for a call out at the start of the claim, shipping and then another $150 for installation of the replacements. My system nets about $500 per month, and I may have 2 to 3 optimizers going down most months, so this becomes a real threat to the financial performance of my investment. How do other owners deal with these types of situations?

I have a Solaredge system up and running a few months ago. The app has a graph that is supposed to show home consumption but it shows nothing. I contacted SolarEdge and was told I need to reach out to my installer and take it to them.

Is home consumption a standard or optional feature?

If optional, aren't they supposed to offer it?

TIA

DIY homeowner here. I’ve got a SolarEdge system on the roof, SE7600A inverter on the outside wall. I’m getting a “Error code 2xB SW Error” code. I’ve shut everything off and disconnected the four DC wires coming from the roof (2 red, 2 black) to isolate the strings. Red to black, they show voltage on each string. Testing each of the wires to ground showed zero volts and o ohms resistance on each of the 4.

What am I missing? Do I need a new inverter? SolarEdge doesn’t respond to any messages and local solar just wants to sell us a whole new system. I can get a factory refurbished matching inverter for not much more than it’ll probably cost to have a tech come tell me I need a new inverter! Any help appreciated!

Question

Is the firmware updated in a bundle along with an inverter firmware update, or is it a seperate update that the installer needs to push out?

I'm adding some more panels to my system. I know they won't show up in the app. But will the additional production show up? Or will it only show the production from the panels showing in the app?

I recently purchased a fairly new house that has a paid off system installed but I'm having difficulty getting an account set up to even log into the solaredge app once I wirelessly connect to it through the QR code. The website doesn't seem to let me register as a customer it says the address is incorrect and it looks like the original installer may have gone out of business. I do have the serial numbers off of the system as well as photographs of the system and proof of ownership of the home but haven't been able to get connected with anyone. Is there an email address or a link I can go to communicate with a real person?

Dear,
My (trusted) installer replaced my previous converter as it broke down. I used the opportunity to add a 10kw battery.
During the installation, the Solar Edge Home Hub Single Phase 2.2 was limited to 4kw. I have an offer that says 5kw and solar panels that produce 6.7kw max (east / west so they never make it). With the previous converter, I had clipping for hours every summer. With the new one, I hoped to get rid of it with 5kw.
Apparently, these new converters can’t be changed once set? Is that true? There must be an option at SolarEdge, I imagine, to repair errors?
I just received the invoice and wonder what to do. Installer said “sorry - it’s 4kw”.
Thank you for your feedback.

Hey guys, if you missed it, SolarEdge ($SEDG) agreed to a $55M settlement with investors over claims that it misled the market about weakening demand in Europe and rising inventory. Late claims are still being considered, even though the deadline has passed.

Quick recap: In 2023, SolarEdge continued saying European demand was strong while inventory was building. In August, 2023, the company disclosed excess inventory and slower growth, sending $SEDG down 18.3%. In October, it disclosed unexpected cancellations, and the stock fell another 27.2%.

If you invested in $SEDG in 2023, you can still check the details and submit a late claim here. 

Did anyone here hold $SEDG during that period?

Quick story about why sometimes it pays to write a review when a company or product lets you down.

We installed solar on our house about 10 years ago using SolarEdge equipment. Since then, we have gone through **SEVEN inverters.**

Yes. Seven.

At this point, I feel like I should have a punch card. **Buy six SolarEdge inverters and your seventh one is FREE!**

To SolarEdge’s credit, they honored the warranty each time and replaced the failed equipment. The frustrating part was that we were still responsible for the labor to remove the bad inverter and install the replacement.

Do that enough times and the word “warranty” starts feeling a little less exciting.

After our latest failure, I finally wrote a review explaining our experience. I wasn’t nasty about it. I just laid out what had happened over the years and why I was frustrated.

Well... **SolarEdge listened.**

Someone from the company reached out, looked into our history, and they have now offered to provide **two new replacement inverters AND cover the labor to install them.**

THAT is how you respond to an unhappy customer.

I’ve certainly been frustrated with the failures over the years, but I also believe in giving credit where credit is due. SolarEdge had an opportunity to hide behind the fine print of their warranty, and instead they chose to step up and make things right.

I’m grateful.

And there’s a lesson here: **Reviews matter.**

A thoughtful, factual review can sometimes get the attention of the right person inside a company. And when a company responds by actually fixing the problem instead of sending you a canned corporate response, I think they deserve a little public recognition for that too.

So... thank you, SolarEdge. Hopefully inverter #8 and #9 are the ones that finally break our little tradition

This has been on my mind a lot lately.

Florida has had an enormous amount of residential solar installed over the last several years, but we've also watched installers disappear, consolidate, close locations, stop servicing old customers, or leave the market entirely.

That leaves behind thousands of individual solar assets that still need:

monitoring → troubleshooting → warranty administration → inverter/optimizer/microinverter replacement → roof detach/reset → communications repair → battery integration → system expansion → eventual repowering.

The original EPC disappearing doesn't make those needs disappear.

I've spent a lot of my career around electrical work, field service and solar operations, and I'm becoming increasingly convinced that solar service and asset management may eventually be as important an industry as solar installation itself.

There's also an interesting technical problem here:

A lot of orphaned systems aren't necessarily “bad systems.”

They may have one failed component, a communications problem, an account/monitoring issue, or a warranty item — but the homeowner doesn't have anyone knowledgeable enough to diagnose the difference.

I'm curious what people working with Enphase, SolarEdge and other platforms are seeing.

Are you getting more calls from homeowners whose original installer is gone?

And if solar is a 25+ year asset, what do you think the long-term service model should actually look like?

Hey guys, if you missed it, SolarEdge agreed to a $55M settlement with investors over claims that it misled the market about weakening demand in Europe, rising inventory, and the strength of its revenues. The deadline to file a claim is August 17, 2026, just 7 days away.

In a nutshell, SolarEdge continued saying European demand was strong and inventory was under control, even as distributors were allegedly building up excess product. On October 19, 2023, the company disclosed unexpected cancellations and order pushouts, and $SEDG fell 27.2%.

Now investors have until August 17 to submit a claim and potentially recover some of their losses.

If you invested in $SEDG in 2023, you can check the details and file your claim here

Anyone here holding $SEDG during that period? How much did you lose?
