Plug-In Socket with Meter Installation Guide
Overview
The SolarEdge Smart Energy Management solutions allow increasing the self-consumption of a site. One
method used for this purpose is controlling the usage (consumption) of loads using Device Control
products.
The SolarEdge Device Control units divert power to an appliance (load) according to pre-configured
schedules, using the following modes:
Refer to Figure 2 for examples of the device modes of operation.
You can re-configure the schedules at any time and manually switch appliances on and off.
You can configure the Device Control products locally through the SolarEdge inverter or remotely, via
the SolarEdge monitoring portal.
The SolarEdge Plug-In Socket (referred to as "the device") is a ZigBee wireless AC switch with a built-in
energy and power-consumption meter that provides power measurements up to 2.5kW. Based on these
measurements and on the system configuration it switches the loads on and off.

Schedule - TThe device turns on and off at times set by the user for the user’s convenience, regardless of
available PV power.w
Smart Save - The device (typically a boiler or water pump) is controlled automatically to maximize self-
consumption. Grid power is used only if PV power is insufficient to meet the user’s “ready by” time. For
example, to heat water for 2 hours and have hot water by 18:00, set Total Time to 2 hours and Ready by to
The boiler may work before 16:00 if there is available PV power, but in any case you are guaranteed to .18:00
have hot water by 18:00.w

The following figure illustrates a typical example of device operation with Smart Save and Schedule
modes. Note that in Smart Save mode, the consumption is reduced by taking advantage of excess PV
earlier in the day.
Figure 2: Examples of device operation
To enable the Plug-in socket functionality, the following supporting devices must be installed:
lDevice Control ZigBee Module, installed inside the inverter. For physical installation refer to

Installation

CAUTION!
lThis product must be operated under the specified operating specifications, as described in
the latest technical specification datasheet.
lConfigure the product so that the load connected is not switched on or off more
frequently than specified by the load manufacturer.
lDo not connect loads that require a continuous current supply (e.g. fridge, freezer).
lDo not use the product if it is damaged or malfunctioning.
lNever connect loads that can cause injuries or fire if they are switched on unintentionally
(e.g. an iron).
lDo not let the product come into contact with water or other liquids.
lThe enclosed documentation is an integral part of this product. Keep the documentation
in a convenient place for future reference and observe all instructions contained therein.
Plug the device into a wall socket , at a maximum distance of 50 m from the inverter.

lManual - turns the device to ONor OFF, as described below
lAuto - allows setting two types of schedules for device control, as described in the next sections:
oSmart Save - set the device operation requirements (ready-by and duration values). This mode
is useful for maximizing self-consumption using excess PVpower: the device operates
autonomously based on configured settings.
oSchedule - set the device start and stop times regardless of available excess PVpower.
To set Manual mode:
1. Select Mode èManual
2. Select ON or OFFto turn the device on or off.

lLoad Rating - the appliance rated power (in kW)
lExport TH (threshold) - optional; the minimum power (in W) above which the excess PV power
will be diverted to the appliance. This value can be lower than the load rating. The default value is
5% above the Load Rating.
lImport TH (threshold) - optional; the maximum power (in W) purchased from the grid and
diverted to the appliance. The default value is 5% of the Load Rating.
NOTE
If changing the Export TH and Import TH default values, make sure they sum up to a
value that equals or greater than the appliance Load Rating value. Otherwise, the
device will turn off when there is insufficient power to divert to the appliance.
lMin ONTime - (optional); the minimum duration (in minutes) the appliance should remain ON
once switched on, even when no excess PVpower is available. The default value is 1 minute.e

oReady by - requested energy must be diverted to the load by this time (default: 00:00;
format:hours:minutes).
oDuration - minimum accumulated time the load must remain on (in minutes; default: 00).
oMax Duration - maximum accumulated time the load can be on throughout the day (in
minutes; default: 00).
If the value of Max Duration is longer than the value of Duration, the device will use up only
excess PV energy in the difference time. For example, if Max Duration = T1 and Duration =
T2, during (T1-T2) only excess PV power will be used.
oWeek Days (optional) - days to repeat the settings (default: every day).

S t a r t T i m e < 0 0 : 0 0 >
S t o p T i m e < 0 0 : 0 0 >
Week Days <1234567>
oStart/Stop Time - the time of day by which the Plug-in socket must start/complete its
task of delivering energy to the load (default: 00:00; format:hours:minutes). If these
values are not set, only the excess PV power is used.
oWeek Days (optional) - days to repeat the settings (default: every day).
NOTE
In Auto mode , if you configure overlapping time-frames between Schedule and Smart Save
options, Schedule mode takes precedence over the Smart Save mode.
Once the installation process is complete you can re-configure the device operation mode and schedules.
To Do this
Manually turn the load on or off Select the device from the Device Manager screen. Select
Mode èManual and set the device to either ON or OFF.
Modify the schedule configuration
Select the device from the Device Manager screen. Select
Mode èAuto and set the parameters of any menu: Smart
Save/Schedule.
Disable or delete a schedule Select Disable or Delete from the Schedule screen.
Disconnect the device(s) from the network Select Remove Device or Remove All from the device
screen.
