- 1. To work with IQ Batteries, M Series Microinverters require an Envoy S Metered gateway. Envoy S Metered gateways are not IEEE 1547:2018 compliant. If the utility insists on IEEE 1547:2018 compliance, replacement with IQ7 or IQ8 Series Microinverters will be required.
- 2. To make the IQ Combiner 5/5C or IQ Combiner 5/5C HDK compatible with 2nd-generation batteries, the COMMS-KIT-02 must be replaced with the COMMS-KIT-01.Refer to the installation guide for more information.
- 3. At least one IQ Load Controller is mandatory to commission a Sunlight Backup site. Refer to the documentation center for more information.
