Frequently asked questions
What power ratings does the Deye SUN5-6-8-10-12K-SG04LP3 cover?
The designation covers five separate units and the entry for the Deye SUN5-6-8-10-12K-SG04LP3 records figures for all of them: nominal AC power of 5000, 6000, 8000, 10000 and 12000 W, with maximum AC power of 5500, 6600, 8800, 11000 and 13200 W respectively. Each rating is a distinct model, so the version has to be chosen before the array is sized.
How does the Deye SUN5-6-8-10-12K-SG04LP3 connect to the grid?
The Deye SUN5-6-8-10-12K-SG04LP3 is recorded with three phases and an AC output of 220/380 V or 230/400 V at 50 or 60 Hz. Each of those pairs is the phase-to-neutral and phase-to-phase voltage of a single four-wire configuration rather than two separate output options, so the installation needs a genuine three-phase supply with a neutral.
Are the two DC inputs of the Deye SUN5-6-8-10-12K-SG04LP3 the same?
No. The Deye SUN5-6-8-10-12K-SG04LP3 has two MPPT channels whose maximum DC input currents are recorded as 26 A and 34 A, so the two inputs are not interchangeable. The roof plane carrying more current, or a pair of parallel strings, belongs on the 34 A channel, leaving the 26 A input for the smaller array.
How should strings be sized for the Deye SUN5-6-8-10-12K-SG04LP3?
The Deye SUN5-6-8-10-12K-SG04LP3 tracks between 200 V and 650 V and withstands 800 V of maximum DC input voltage. Strings therefore have to stay below 800 V at the coldest expected temperature and still sit above 200 V once the modules are hot, a window wide enough for noticeably longer strings than a 500 V unit allows.
What does installing the Deye SUN5-6-8-10-12K-SG04LP3 involve?
At 38 kg the Deye SUN5-6-8-10-12K-SG04LP3 is a two-person lift and needs a wall able to carry that load safely. It is rated IP65 and specified from -40 to +60 degrees Celsius, so an outdoor wall position stays well inside its declared limits, though shading it from direct summer sun remains sensible practice.
What efficiency and output quality does the Deye SUN5-6-8-10-12K-SG04LP3 achieve?
The Deye SUN5-6-8-10-12K-SG04LP3 is recorded at 97.6 percent maximum efficiency and 97.0 percent European efficiency, and the European figure is the weighted one worth using for yield estimates. Total harmonic distortion is listed at 3 percent, which is the usual ceiling grid operators expect from a generator connected to a public low-voltage network.
