Sungrow Inverter Setup

Important

Before starting configuration - please check your device compatibility and supported configurations.

Data Delays

Sungrow data is delayed by about 6 to 11 minutes due to the performance of the Sungrow API. Unfortunately there is no way to improve this. Solar tracking should still work quite well despite the delays.

Step 1

Login to Sungrow iSolarCloud and select your site (aka "plant").

Step 2

Navigate to Plant Configuration -> Plant.

Scroll down to Channel / Partner.

Click Settings.

Step 3

Click Add.

Enter connect@chargehq.net in the Email field.

Leave Viewers selected.

Click Confirm.

This grants Charge HQ read-only permission to access your iSolarCloud data.

Step 4

Confirm the settings look like this.

Step 5

Copy the psId value from the browser URL bar. The value contains only numbers eg 123456.

Do not include the "=" or "&" characters.

Step 6

Using the Charge HQ webapp, click My Equipment -> Solar Data Source

Select Type: Sungrow iSolarCloud.

Paste your psId value from above and click Save.

You should see a success message if it works.

Charge HQ will now be receiving data from your Sungrow inverter, and the solar tracking settings should now be visible on the Charging Settings screen.

If you go back into My Hardware -> Solar Data Source it should now display your Sungrow devices, eg:
