SolarEdge SolarEdge Home Wave
Designed for residential solar installations, this string inverter from Israeli manufacturer SolarEdge delivers consistent 7600W AC power output with exceptional 99% maximum efficiency. The Home Wave model converts DC power from solar panels at up to 480V input voltage, producing clean 240V AC power with pure sine wave output that's ideal for household appliances and electronics.
Built to withstand harsh outdoor conditions, the inverter features NEMA 4X protection rating for superior weather resistance while maintaining a compact form factor at just 12 kg. Single-phase operation makes it perfect for standard residential electrical systems, while the advanced string inverter technology ensures optimal power conversion and system monitoring capabilities for homeowners seeking reliable solar energy solutions.

Frequently asked questions
How much power does the SolarEdge Home Wave deliver?
The SolarEdge Home Wave is recorded at 7600 W of nominal AC power with the same 7600 W as its maximum, so there is no AC overload margin. That output suits a large single-family roof array, and because nominal and maximum coincide, DC oversizing turns into clipping during the brightest hours rather than extra AC output.
What grid supply does the SolarEdge Home Wave connect to?
The SolarEdge Home Wave is a single-phase inverter with a 240 V AC output and a pure sine wave, so it connects to an ordinary residential single-phase service rather than a three-phase one. A pure sine output is what grid connection demands, and the 240 V figure places it on North American residential voltage, not a 230 V European supply.
What is the maximum DC input voltage of the SolarEdge Home Wave?
The SolarEdge Home Wave accepts a maximum DC input voltage of 480 V, far below the 1000 V ceiling common on commercial string inverters. String design therefore answers to a much lower limit, and voltage calculations carried over from a 1000 V inverter do not transfer: the array has to be laid out against the 480 V figure.
Is the SolarEdge Home Wave rated for outdoor installation?
SolarEdge publishes a NEMA 4X enclosure rating for the SolarEdge Home Wave rather than an IP code, and the two scales are not interchangeable or convertible. NEMA 4X covers windblown dust, rain, splashing water and hose-directed water, with added corrosion resistance, which in practice means the enclosure is intended for outdoor as well as indoor mounting.
How efficient is the SolarEdge Home Wave?
The SolarEdge Home Wave is listed at 99 percent maximum efficiency, a peak value reached at the most favourable combination of load and input voltage. No weighted efficiency, European or CEC, is recorded for the SolarEdge Home Wave, so that 99 percent should not be read as a yearly average for an inverter that runs mostly at part load.
How heavy is the SolarEdge Home Wave to install?
The SolarEdge Home Wave weighs 12 kg, light enough for one installer to lift onto its bracket unaided, which matters when the mounting point sits high on a garage or plant-room wall. For a 7600 W single-phase inverter that is a modest mass, and it keeps the wall fixing requirements straightforward.
