Description
The Enphase IQ8H 208V Microinverter is a high powered, smart power source for 208V single phase applications. The IQ8H microinverters are designed to operate in grid-tied or off-grid modes to provide the highest efficiency for systems with 60-cell, 120 half-cell, 72-cell, and 144 half-cell modules. When installed with the Enphase Encharge battery and IQ System Controller, the IQ8H microinverter operates off-grid to power the house or charge the batteries when the sun is shining. The Enphase IQ8 Microinverters are microgrid-forming to power your property when the utility grid is down. Part of the Enphase Energy system, the Enphase IQ8H microinverters integrate with the Enphase IQ Controller Smart Switch, Enphase Encharge lithium battery, Enphase IQ Gateway, and the Enphase App for monitoring and analysis software. Enphase microinverters dramatically simplify the installation process. Connect PV modules quickly and easily to IQ8H Microinverters using the included Q-DCC-2 adapter cable with plug-n-play MC4 connectors.
The IQ8 Microinverter series extends the reliability standards set forth by previous generations. After undergoing over a million cumulative hours of power-on testing, enabling Enphase to provide industry-leading quality and a limited-warranty of up to 25 years.
