What’s new

For all installers:

1. Enhancements to post-commissioning steps
    

   • The Enphase Installer App will collapse the commissioning steps after commissioning is complete, making the Monitor and Service menus more prominent.

     

2. Interactive demo guide 
    
   • The new App Demo card in the Support section provides access to an interactive guide that demonstrates the features and workflows of the Enphase Installer App.

   • This includes configuration-specific demos for different markets, helping installers learn the basic functions of the app.

     

3. Enhanced microinverter communication status
    

   • A near real-time (3-5 minutes) grid-voltage display for each microinverter is now provided to verify that the wiring is done correctly.

     

4. Automatic gateway software updates
    

   • A mandatory gateway software auto-download is triggered when logging into the Enphase Installer App. This ensures the latest gateway software is available for commissioning.

     

For installers in North America:

1. Support for Net Metering in Illinois
    
   • For installers commissioning sites in Illinois, the Enphase Installer App will allow them to Select Grid Connection Type.

   • Installers can access a guide that helps them select the correct grid connection type.

      

2. Mandatory gateway software upgrade for gateway replacement
    
   • The Enphase Installer App will suggest mandatory gateway software upgrades during the IQ Gateway replacement process if the replaced gateway is on a higher version than the new gateway.
3. Commissioning California 208 V sites with IQ Battery 5P 
    

   • In California, installers can now commission the IQ Battery 5P on sites with single-phase 208 V, i.e., 120 V L-N, 208 V L-L, and a 3-wire grid supply.

     Note: The IQ Battery 5P operates as a non-backup or grid-tied battery on single-phase 208 V supplies. It should not be mistaken for a three-phase 208Y/120 V 4-wire supply, as the IQ Battery 5P does not support 208Y/120 V 4-wire supplies.

4. Busbar Overload Control for Main Panel Upgrade Avoidance (MPUA)
    
   • Installers will now have an additional software option called Busbar Overload Control on the Main Panel Upgrade Avoidance page.

   • This control allows installers to accurately control the charge and discharge of the IQ Batteries based on the component size of the main panel.

     

5. IQ8P Microinverter (IQ8P-72-2-US) commissioning in Mexico 
    
   • The IQ8P Microinverter is incompatible with three-phase residential and commercial sites using 220Y/127 V 4-wire grid supply in Mexico. The Enphase Installer App will block the addition of IQ8P Microinverters for such systems.

For APAC and EMEA installers:

1. The Enphase Installer App will support connections with utility servers in South Australia and Victoria.

2. Automatically select the consumption phases in the consumption meter wizard when the installer chooses and activates the three-phase production meters.

   

For IQ EV Charger installations:

1. Improved EV charger integration
    
   • Installers can now integrate EV chargers in the Enphase Energy System and validate their functioning using the Enphase Installer App.
2. Main Breaker Trip Avoidance (MBTA)
    
   • Installers can now enable and configure dynamic load balancing and prevent the main breaker from tripping by limiting the IQ EV Charger capacity during usage.

What’s fixed

1. Improved battery readiness detection during functional validation.
2. Updated PLC noise measurement units for better accuracy.
3. Performance enhancements and stability fixes.

This release is being deployed via Google Play (Android) and App Store (iOS) upgrades.

2. Improved activation page and inventory management

   The Device Inventory and Select Grid Profile sections are now more intuitive. A clearer device count section has been added, ensuring easy adjustments for site setups. Grid profiles are also clickable, allowing for streamlined navigation.

    
   

3. Soft migration to New Activation Page

   To support a smoother transition to the New Activation Page, we’ve introduced a confirmation step for installers who choose to switch back to the Classic Activation view. This enhancement helps highlight the benefits of the new activation process while giving installers control over their preferred interface.

   Key updates:

   Confirmation pop-up for Classic Activation view

   • When installers attempt to switch to the Classic Activation view, they will now see the following confirmation message:

     

   • If installers choose to switch to the Classic Activation view, the system will remember this preference, ensuring that they continue using Classic Activation in future sessions.

4. Enhanced keyboard usability in the Details section

   Key updates:

   • When the Tab key is pressed, the cursor now automatically moves to the next field, making it easier to complete forms quickly.
   • When a drop-down menu is opened, the cursor will automatically move to the input field, allowing for faster selection and smoother navigation.

For installers in Australia:

1. Support for CSIP/IEEE 2030.5 compliance

   Installers now have the option to configure new sites for IEEE 2030.5 compliance, ensuring adherence to regional utility requirements.

   Key features:

   • IEEE 2030.5 interface selection for applicable regions

     For sites located in Queensland, South Australia, Victoria, or Western Australia, installers must now indicate if the site has an IEEE 2030.5 interface. This is a mandatory field to ensure compliance.

   • Region-specific utility provider selection

     If Yes is selected for Does the site have IEEE2030.5 Interface, a drop-down menu appears, allowing the installer to choose the appropriate utility provider based on the site’s region:

   

For installers in North America:

1. Confirmation for non-NEM 3.0 grid connection types

   To help installers avoid compliance issues, we’ve introduced a confirmation step for selecting non-NEM 3.0 grid connection types. This new feature prompts installers to verify grid connection dates, ensuring alignment with regulatory requirements.

   

For installers in Netherlands:

1. Microinverter quantity restrictions for IQ Combiner Lite gateways

   For sites in Netherlands using the Envoy S Standard EU (IQ Combiner Lite) gateway, there are now specific limits on the number of IQ Microinverters allowed per IQ Combiner Lite to ensure reliable performance.
