HMS Field Connector Plug&Play Connection Cable

The Hoymiles HMS connection cable is designed for the AC-side connection of a compatible HMS microinverter. It consists of an HMS Field Connector, an AC cable, and an AC plug. Various cable lengths are available for this complete system. The term “Plug&Play” refers to the cable itself and does not mean that the entire solar system can be put into operation independently via a household outlet.

For an inverter with a rated output of 2,000 VA, the intended connection type, the wiring sizing, and the suitability of all connection components must be verified by a qualified electrician. Connection to the home electrical system and commissioning must be performed exclusively by a qualified professional in accordance with applicable regulations.

Installation and Grid Connection in Germany

The Solar-Direct PV system has a nominal PV power output of 1,800 Wp and a nominal inverter output of 2,000 VA. This exceeds the 800 VA inverter power limit applicable to simplified plug-in solar devices, and the system must therefore be installed as a grid-connected photovoltaic system in accordance with applicable technical regulations and connection requirements.

Connection to the home electrical system and commissioning must be performed by a qualified electrician. The electrician will inspect the existing electrical installation and ensure a suitable, standards-compliant connection solution. This system is not designed for self-commissioning via a standard household outlet.

The system must be reported or registered in accordance with applicable legal requirements and the requirements of the responsible grid operator. This includes, in particular, registration in the Federal Network Agency’s market master data registry.
