Highlights
- 100% unbalanced output — each phase can independently supply up to 50% of rated power, ideal for AU homes with lopsided single-phase loads.
- 48 V transformer-isolation design with up to 240 A battery charge/discharge current.
- Up to 16 units in parallel for on-grid and off-grid operation.
- AC-coupling to retrofit existing PV, plus generator input support.
- Six charge/discharge time periods for time-of-use and VPP scheduling.
Good to know for AU installs
- Three-phase grid code AS/NZS 4777.2 — confirm the DNSP export limit and region profile at commissioning.
- The 10–12 kW models add a third PV string input (2/(2+1)) for larger arrays.
- Pairs with 48 V LFP storage (RW-F10.2, AI-W5.1-B and similar).
Figures are from Deye’s SUN-5/6/8/10/12K-SG04LP3-AU datasheet (25 July 2025 issue). The warranty is as listed in Deye’s SUN Series 10-year limited warranty for Australia and New Zealand (V2.17, July 2026, p.2), which lists SUN-5/6/8/10/12K-SG04LP3-AU. Confirm the exact model variant against the linked datasheet before quoting or commissioning.
