Hi all

first job with enphase system all registered ok see real time data put in scoket of pv board to envoy so
on same circuit board.
put in a addon NHP2010 with HP200, NHP2010 plugged in & envoy input to this unit, HP200 at router
end plugged in, put in extra socket from consumer unit on same RCD & breaker as the router is plugged into
on domestic down stairs ring circuit, no comms over line!.
any help would be apprecaited?
work around i used 10meter patch lead & plugged envoy into router got IP address & real time data
built array issued all micro inverter serial numbers all ok just when i try wirless comms.
can you use usb on envoy?

Call Enphase They have a good technical team that will help. Could be interference from another device in the home

We install a PV dedicated consumer unit supplied from a Henley block and then hard wire the Envoy into a dp fused spur with a 5A fuse. We then run a cat5 cable back to the router. A little extra work but good comms every time and no revisits.

hi Matt M
all sorted now found problem addon unit required a little set up, turn of wifi, re-set IP address,
although this was a plug & play unit & papper work was saying different.
still it works well, would like hard wired but other side of house for Cat5, i think customer would not be happy.
all units now talking to each other looks good, installed A/C isolator & small consumer unit to power for envoy unit & ran in cable to old board to ensure homeplug was on the same circuit as down stairs sockets.
MCS on wednesday, just seems to be endless papperwork trying but think i will have a few no conformities.
