Depending on the site-specific situation and local electrical compliance requirements, some if not all of
the following parts will be required:
•AC circuit breakers –Minimum four 32A circuit breaker is required next to the BESS system and
inside the main switchboard.Additional ones for extended distance away from
switchboard/distribution board
•AC cables (≥4mm2) –From powerbox to Switchboard/Distribution board & critical loads
•DC cables (≥25mm2)–From powercube to powerbox (2 to 5 metres)
•Ethernet/CAT5 cables –To extend the communication cable, distance between the powercube
and the powerbox. Or to extend the Energy meter communication cables.
•Conduits –20mm

1) Choose a proper position for the mounting bracket
on the wall and mark it
2) Use Φ10 drill template to drill holes on marked
position
3) Fix the expansion bolt into the hole
4) Fix wall bracket on the wall
5) Fix screw through bracket to expansion tube, adjust
the bracket position and screw in
6) Align with wall bracket, move Powerbox DC in
horizontal direction to proper position
7) Make the hook on wall bracket insert into the hole on
the Powerbox DC inverter
8) Slowly lower Inverter, ensure the inverter hang on the
hook of wall bracket
9) Check if Inverter is properly fixed on the wall

Powercube installation –PowerCube Mounting
Step 1: Remove the enclosure cover
Step 2: Remove the Circuit Breaker cover
Step 3: Use the cardboard template provided to do
wall-mount hole “marking” and drill holes accordingly
Step 4: Insert wall plug and drive the M8 bolts
Note: Place two anti-theft bolts in the middle hole
Step 5: Hook on the PowerCube enclosure before
securing & tightening the bolts.

Powercube installation –Battery packs
Once the Powercube enclosure have been secured
with bolts.
Step 1: Insert the packs into the mounted casing
Step 2: Turn the baffle to secure the battery packs

Powercube installation –BESS connections
Connecting the packs together
Step 1: Connect a master pack. The master should have the
breaker Negative cable connected to it. It should also have the
label “Master Mode”
Step 2: Connect rest of the negative cables
Step 3: Connect the positive cables.
Note: for better performance, connect the breaker positive cable to
the last battery pack.
Step 4: Connect the inverter comms cable (to Master only)
Step 5: Connect the comms cable between the battery packs
Step 6: Measure the required distance from powercube to
Powerbox & prepare a positive and negative DC cable and
connect to battery breaker
