Step 1: Place the base against a wall,
leaving a gap of 10-25 mm between the
base and the wall. Adjust the position of
the holes using a level and mark them
with a felt-tip pen.
Step 2: To install the base, remove it, and
drill the holes using an impact drill with
an 8mm diameter bit, drilling to a depth
of 60-65 mm. Tighten the expansion
screws to firmly secure the base in place.
Step 3: Use a felt-tip pen to mark the
holes for attaching the battery modules
and inverters, following the dimensions
shown in the figure below.
Installing the modules:
Step 1: Align the first battery
module to the base.
Step 2: Install the connectors on
both sides and tighten the six
screws using a cross screwdriver.
Step 3: Install the remaining
battery modules and inverter from
bottom to top. (Before installing the
next module, ensure that the
screws on the side connectors of
the previous module are firmly
tightened).

1. INSTALLATION
Installing the support panel:
Step 1: Use an impact drill (φ 8mm,
depth 60-65 mm) to drill the holes.
Reposition and drill the holes in case of
significant deviation.
Step 2: Install support panel B on the
wall and fasten the expansion bolt.
Step 3: Adjust support panel A, making
sure that the holes on both panel A and B
are perfectly aligned.
Step 4: Connect and secure panel A and B
using M6*16 screws.
Installing the cover:
After ensuring the correctness and reliability of the electrical connections, install the outer protective cover
and secure it with the screws.

9.1 SETTING PHOTOVOLTAIC CHANNELS
To set the photovoltaic channels:
Basic settings → Channel configuration
When connecting strings in independent mode:
OInput channel 3 –PV Input 1
OInput channel 4 –PV Input 2
When connecting strings in parallel mode:
OInput channel 3 –PV Input 1
OInput channel 4 –PV Input 1
When shutting down the system, ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE AC VOLTAGE by opening the
designated switch. NEVER SWITCH OFF the batteries before disconnecting the AC voltage,
and therefore with the storage system connected to the AC grid.
Note: Make sure the cable connections are firmly established.
For systems with a capacity exceeding 15 kWh, the batteries are connected in two independent groups to the
inverter's battery input interface.
The battery capacity varies from 5 to 20 kWh (in the case of 4 batteries, it is necessary to purchase the
extension kit, code ZZT-ZBT5K-EXT-KIT).

POSITIONING OF CT SENSOR:
✓Positioned at the output of the import/export meter so that all incoming and outgoing power flows can be
read, it must include all phase cables entering or exiting the meter.
✓The direction of the CT is independent of the installation, and is recognised by the system during the first
start-up.
Connect negative and positive in the sensor respectively to inputs 19 and 18 of the COM connector
Use an 8-pin, category 6 STP cable as an EXTENSION CABLE; use all the coloured pins
(blue-orange-green-brown) to extend the positive cable of the CT and all the white/coloured pins
(white/blue-white/orange-white/green/brown) to extend the negative cable of the CT.
The shield must be grounded on one of the two sides.

10.2.5 CHECKING CORRECT DDSU METER READING
In order to check the correct reading of the meter on exchange, turn off the hybrid inverter and any other PV
production sources.
Switch on loads greater than 1 kW.
Stand in front of the meter and use the keys
“ “ to scroll through the items, make sure that:
Power P is:
•Greater than 1 kW.
•In line with home consumption.
•The sign in front of each negative value (–).
In the case of a meter for reading the production of existing photovoltaic systems, repeat the previous
steps:
1. This time the sign of the powers must be positive for P.
2. Switch on the Hybrid Inverter, leaving the DC-side PV switch in the OFF position, check that the total
external PV power value (Pt) is in line with the value shown on the inverter's display.
