How the Sonnen ecoLinx Works

A

Solar Panels

Your solar panels turn sunlight into clean DC (direct current) electricity.

B

Solar Inverter

Your solar inverter converts solar generated DC electricity into AC (alternation current) electricity that can power your home.

C

Main Electrical Panel

AC electricity passes through your electrical panel to power devices in your home.

D

ecoLinx - Storage

Your Sonnen ecoLinx converts excess AC electricity to DC for storage in its battery modules. When you need it, the electricity is converted back to AC - day, night, or during a power outage.

E

ecoLinx - Energy Automation

Your ecoLinx complements your solar and/or home automation system to power other smart devices in your home. Together, they effectively manage and maximize how you use energy in your home without disrupting your lifestyle.

F

Protected Electrical Panel

A second breaker box is an additional electrical panel that distributes to critical devices in your home in an outage from your ecoLinx.

G

Energy Meter

Your meter monitors and measures electricity use by your home and excess solar power fed into the utility grid.

H

Utility Grid

Your utility keeps you connected to local electrical grid, ensuring you have access to grid power when you need it.
