Installation

The installation section will take you step by step through the process of installing an ESS Power Case.
NOTE! Ferroamp does not take responsibility for damages on the product caused by incorrect or careless installation.
NOTE! We recommend that you use end terminals for all connection points that have multi-threaded conductors.
Do not work alone. In an emergency, someone else’s presence may be necessary!
The electrical installation must comply with national / local laws and regulations,  appropriate standards and applicable requirements from recognized organizations.
The electrical installation must be carried out by a qualified installer and in accordance with the applicable electrical standard.
Ensure that the location of the ESS Power Case never is an obstacle to an emergency evacuation path. In accordance with national and local laws.
2.1 Placement
NOTE! Ferroamp does not take responsibility for installations where the following stated criteria are not met.
NOTE! Make sure that the ESS Power Case and the ESS Battery are positioned close enough for the premade battery cables to reach.
Make sure that the chosen location for installation is in line with the following criteria:

• Indoor environment is protected from rain and direct sunlight.
• Ambient temperatures must not fall below 0 °C and not exceed 45 °C.
• The environment must be non-condensing, relative humidity below 95%.
• Have free space around the ESS Power Case according to the following figures:

2.1.1 To remove the front cover by first unscrewing the two side thumbscrews (1 & 2), slide the front up (3) and lift it off (4). Finish with unscrewing the PE-cable from the baseplate (5). 2.1.2To access the distribution panel, unscrew the two slotted screws in the bottom front (2) and the top (3) then lift of the poke protection:

2.1.3 Mount the base plate on the wall, see dimensions for position of mounting holes (mm):

2.2 ESS Battery connection
2.2.1 Remove the ring terminals from the pre-made battery cables included with the ESS Battery Controller by cutting them off.
2.2.2 Poke holes in the multi grommets and feed Bat+, Bat- and PE cables through the smaller grommets. 2.2.3 Attach isolated ferrules and connect to the cables to the following terminals:

2.2.4 Make sure that all terminals are tightened to 2.5 Nm, use a torque wrench.
2.2.5 Remove the cable grommet for the RJ45 cable, poke a hole, cut it open along one side and attach it around the communication cable. Connect the communication cable from the ESS Battery to the outer port, “CAN 2”: The ESS Battery is now connected!
2.3 Connection of SSO:s (1-3)
If you do not have any SSOs you can skip this section.
NOTE! To calculate correct cable dimensions you can use Ferroamp’s online cable calculator, available at www.ferroamp.com under the support section.
2.3.1 Feed the SSO cable through one of the larger grommets: 2.3.2 Feed through ~40 cm of cable for and peel of ~35 cm of isolation.

2.3.3 Connect to the following terminals:

Make sure that all terminals are tightened to 2.5 Nm, use a torque wrench.
If you have 2 or 3 SSOs just repeat the steps above for each SSO.
2.4 DC nanogrid connection
NOTE! To calculate correct cable dimensions you can use Ferroamp’s online cable calculator, available at www.ferroamp.com under the support section.
2.4.1 Depending on the cable diameter used for the DC link, feed the cable through the M32 cable gland or one of the larger grommets.
2.4.2 Peel of the cable isolation according to instruction in section 2.2.
2.4.3 Connect the DC nanogrid cable (L+, L- & PE) to the following terminals. 2.4.4 Make sure that all terminals are tightened to 2.5 Nm, use a torque wrench.
Make sure that the DC nanogrid is connected to correct terminals.
2.5 Connection overview
2.5.1 Verify the correct polarity of all connected cables.
2.5.2 Control that all terminals are fastened with 2.5 Nm.

2.5.3 The key holes seen in the image below can be used to secure the cables with extra cable ties if needed.

2.6 Install ESO Modules
The ESS Power Case can be configured with either 1 or 2 ESO Modules depending on the power configuration of the ESS System.
2.6.1 Align the ESO module against the back plate. Look from the side to ensure that the connectors are aligned. When alignment of the connector is good gently lower the ESO module in place, one module at the time:
a. 1 x ESO Module: Secure the ESO Modules with the mounting bracket as seen in the images above.
2.7 Assembly finish
2.7.1 Mount the poke protection and re-attach the PE-cable to the base plate.

2.7.2 Attach the warning sticker on the poke protection.
2.7.3 Commission the system, see section 3.
2.7.4 Re-attach the PE cable to the baseplate before mounting the front cover.

Commissioning – Start up

NOTE! If this is the first time starting up the EnergyHub system you need to follow the commissioning guide included with the EnergyHub (available at www.ferroamp.com ).

1. Turn on the EnergyHub.
2. Close the breaker on the ESS Power Case.
3. Close the breaker on the ESS Battery and press the start button for 5 seconds until it rings.
4. When the system is on the battery will calibrate during the  first 24 hours. During this time, you should set the charge reference to 1 kW in the system configuration (www.portal.ferroamp.com).
5. After the calibration has finished you can configure the battery in the system configuration after you desired use case.
