Monitors SolarEdge inverter, grid meter, and battery data via Modbus TCP.
Overview
This template connects a SolarEdge inverter to ModbusCloud via Modbus TCP. It reads DC power, AC power, exported and imported energy, and battery state of energy for up to two batteries. A connected grid meter is also supported.
Key readings
DC Power (RAW + SF)
AC Power (RAW + SF)
Exported Energy
Imported Energy
Battery 1/2 State of Energy
Battery 1/2 Instantaneous Power
Use cases
Monitor real-time DC and AC power production from a SolarEdge inverter on a live cloud dashboard.
Track exported and imported energy over time to verify grid feed-in and consumption patterns.
Create an alert when battery state of energy drops below a defined threshold during peak hours.
Generate monthly energy reports for residential or commercial PV customers showing production and self-consumption.
Compare instantaneous power of two batteries to detect imbalanced charge or discharge behaviour.
Verify grid meter readings remotely to support billing reconciliation or feed-in tariff compliance.
Installation
1Enable Modbus TCP on the SolarEdge inverter via its SetApp or LCD menu, and note the IP address assigned on the local network.
2Ensure the Modbus TCP port (default 1502 on SolarEdge) is accessible from the ModbusCloud gateway on the same LAN or VLAN.
3Connect your MCG or MLP series gateway to the local network and power it on.
4In the ModbusCloud portal, add a new device and select the SolarEdge Inverter template from the library.
5Enter the inverter IP address and Modbus TCP port in the gateway configuration, then confirm the unit ID matches the inverter setting.
6After importing the template, set up formula blocks to convert RAW and SF register pairs into proper floating point values as described in the template notes.
