Installation of an SP PRO Powerchain System
Introduction
This installation note will demonstrate how to install and configure SP PRO units in a Powerchain system,
either as a single phase, three phase or split phase system with up to three worker units per phase (four
SP PRO inverters per phase –one manager, with three worker units).
Preparation
•This document needs to be read in conjunction with the SP PRO Instruction Manual and SP LINK
instruction manual (both found in the SP LINK Help menu)
Powerchain Definitions
•System Manager –Must be connected to L1 –all configuration, control and interaction is via this
SP PRO
•Phase Manager –Main SP PRO on L2, L3 and/or Split(180°)
•Worker –any other SP PRO within system on any phase.
Summary of steps
The following is a summary of the steps required to complete the installation. Once the installation is
completed, use the outline below as a check list:

SP PRO Powerchain
Installation Note
Installation
The SP PROs must be installed as per the installation instructions in the user manual.
It is a good idea to place a label on the top right-hand corner of each SP PRO. This will help to identify
each inverter in the Powerchain system during system commissioning and testing.
AC Wiring
All Neutral connections from inverters must be connected together at the same common point as required.
The neutral conductor connecting to the loads must be maintained such that operation of any external
SP PRO isolators cannot sever the link between Neutral and Earth.
All of the AC wiring linking the Load L and N circuits between any particular phase manager and its
workers complies with the following:
1. The L and N cables either run in the same conduit or a twin cable is used. It is important that
the cable pairs run in parallel and do not separate.
2. Minimise the cable length between an SP PRO and the sub board where it is connected to the
other SP PROs on the same phase. The maximum allowable cable run is 10 metres from SP PRO
to sub board.
SINGLE PHASE TWO WORKERS EXTERNAL CONTACTOR (OPTION 1)
Figure 1 shows the SP PRO Single Phase Powerchain AC wiring schematic with two workers and an external
CT & AC source contactor.

SINGLE PHASE TWO WORKERS INTERNAL CONTACTOR (OPTION 2)
Figure 2 shows the Single Phase Powerchain AC wiring where no external contactor and CT is installed.
This configuration can be used when the AC source capacity is no more than 15kW per phase for the
SPMC models, or 30kW per phase for the SPLC models.
Figure 2: Single Phase AC Wiring Schematic with 2 Workers
AC Source Power < 15 kW for SPMC or 30 kW for SPLC models
THREE PHASE TWO WORKERS PER PHASE
Figure 3 (following page) shows a Three Phase Powerchain system with two workers per phase. An
external three phase AC source contactor is required with external CTs for each phase.
NOTE: A three phase Powerchain system with one or more workers per phase MUST have external CTs
and an external AC Source contactor fitted.
NOTE: Three phase circuits which have loads that cannot tolerate a phase failure must be protected by
a Phase Failure Relay (not supplied).

Main DC Wiring
The SP PRO Powerchain main DC wiring diagram is illustrated in Figure 4.
Battery protection must be a minimum of 630A per group. After the DC battery protection, the cables can
be split into one circuit per SP PRO, each supplied by minimum 70mm2V90HT cables. Each circuit is
protected by a 250A HRC fuse or DC circuit breaker.

Pre-charge and Midpoint Wiring
The SP PRO Powerchain DC pre-charge and midpoint wiring layout is shown in Figure 5.
The pre-charge wiring is wired as a bus arrangement and connected to the battery via a common
connection for all SP PROs. This will allow all SP PROs to be pre-charged together.
The Midpoint wiring need only be connected to the System Manager (L1). The System Manager carries
out the battery sense and midpoint readings for the system.
The pre-charge and midpoint wiring must be protected by suitable fuses or a three pole circuit breaker
rated at least 2A DC per SP PRO. For the system below (Fig. 5) the pre-charge circuit breaker rating is
18A or more.

SP PRO SYNC Interconnection
Every SP PRO in a Powerchain system must be interconnected via its SYNC interface. Connect every
SP PRO together via the SYNC-1 or SYNC-2 connection, using the supplied cat5 cables.
The SYNC-1 and SYNC-2 connection points are identical, so either may be used for each connection.
Each SP PRO can be connected together in any sequence, with the most logical sequence being
connections between adjacent SP PROs. Ensure that all SP PROs in the Powerchain system are linked into
one single SYNC chain.
Note: Termination connectors MUST be fitted to the two unused SYNC connectors.

Installation Note
Update Firmware and reset to factory defaults
Download the latest SP LINK (version 14.0 or higher) from the Selectronic web site. This will contain
the latest SP PRO firmware 14.00 or higher and the Communications Card firmware 4.00 or higher.
Apply DC power to all the SP PROs in the Powerchain system and wait until they start.
Connect the SP LINK PC to the USB port on the SP PRO that will be assigned as the System Manager
(the Manager on L1 phase).
Select Firmware Update from the Easy Start Guide and update all of the SP PROs in the Powerchain
system to latest version of firmware (Version 14.00 or higher and Comm Card version 4.00 or higher, if
not already updated). All SP PROs in the Powerchain system will be updated via the System Manager.
Each SP PRO is shipped with a factory default configuration. If any of the SP PROs in the Powerchain
have been configured then they must be set back to factory defaults before proceeding. If in doubt, it is
best to revert each unit to factory defaults.
To set an SP PRO to factory defaults: Apply battery power to the SP PRO and leave in Idle. Press and
Hold the Alarm and Generator buttons (B) then press the ON button (C) until all LEDs go green. Release
all buttons.
For more detailed instructions on how to update firmware and reset an SP PRO to factory defaults,
please refer to Appendix I on page 14.

SP PRO Configuration
The Site Configuration Wizard is used to create the configuration for the Powerchain system. All
communications and system configuration are carried out by connecting to the System Manager (L1).
Once the system is configured, communications to other SP PROs in the Powerchain system is via the
System Manager. The data communications ports on the other SP PROs are disabled.
1. Make sure the USB lead is connected between the System Manager and PC.
2. Make sure the DC power is present at all of the SP PROs.
Wait until the front panel LEDs are stable.
3. Start Selectronic SP LINK.
4. Select “Site Configuration Wizard” and step though the wizard to setup the system to suite the
Powerchain system application.
Hint: For information on how to use the “Site Configuration Wizard”, right click on the page in
SP LINK and a help guide will appear.
