 Steps to mounting the unit 2.3.2 Lithium Battery Connection
Step1. Use the wall-mounting bracket as the template to mark the position of the 4 holes, then drill 8 mm
holes and make sure the depth of the holes is deeper than 50mm. If choosing lithium battery for SNA5000 WPV, please make sure the battery BMS is compatible with
Luxpower inverter. Please check the compatible list in the Luxpower website.
Step2. Install the expansion tubes into the holes and tight them, then use the expansion screws (packaged
together with the expansion tubes) to install and fix the wall-mounting bracket on the wall. Please follow below steps to implement lithium battery connection:

Step3. Install the inverter on the wall-mounting bracket and lock the inverter using the security screws. 1. Connect power cable between inverter and battery
180 mm 2. Connect the CAN or RS485 communication cable between inverter and battery. If you do not get
the communication cable from inverter manufacturer or battery manufacturer, please make the cable
according to the PIN definition

3. Lithium battery configuration, in order to communicate with battery BMS, you should set the battery

Please refer to the connection diagram to determine the correct position of the Grid CT and securely
attach it to the L wire at the service entry point in the main service panel. The arrow on the CT should
point towards the inverter. (*** Incorrect installation of the CT may result in the display showing
incorrect information, and the inverter features may not function properly.) If the CT is installed in the GRID
wrong direction, you can change the CT direction on your inverter by selecting "CT Direction Reversed"
in the Advanced Tab. There is no need to make any physical changes.

CAUTION!!
- There are two terminal blocks with “IN” and “OUT” markings. Please do NOT mis-connect input and
output connectors.
- Be sure to connect AC wires with correct polarity. If L and N wires are connected reversely, it may
cause utility short-circuited when these inverters are worked in parallel operation.

Please follow below steps to implement AC input/output connection:

1. Before making AC input/output connection, be sure to open DC protector or disconnected first.

2. Remove insulation sleeve 10mm for six conductors. And shorten phase L and neutral conductor N 3 mm.
