Enphase IQ Battery 5P with FlexPhase – Powerful and Safe Home Battery
The Enphase IQ Battery 5P with FlexPhase is an advanced, all-in-one AC-coupled home battery with 5.0 kWh of usable energy capacity. Thanks to its unique FlexPhase technology, this battery can be used flexibly in both single-phase and three-phase installations – ideal for the Dutch market, where three-phase connections are the norm. The system comprises six integrated IQ8T-BAT microinverters and delivers up to 3.84 kVA of continuous power in a single-phase configuration, or 1.28 kVA per phase in a three-phase configuration.
Key features
- Versatile: Suitable for both single-phase and three-phase installations. Switching between modes is simple by removing the jumper block.
