Unboxing
The Preferred Solution for Residential Solar Systems in the UK and Europe
The Solis S6-EH1P6K-L-PLUS is the go-to hybrid inverter for modern homes looking to reduce energy bills and gain energy independence. It complies fully with UK grid regulations and meets the MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) requirements. This means you’re eligible to export energy back to the grid and get paid by your electricity supplier. If you prefer full self-consumption, the system can be easily configured to inject 0W back to the public network, helping you retain full control of your solar energy.
Smart Charging with AC Timer – Save Money Automatically
With the built-in AC charging timer, you can programme the inverter to charge your lithium batteries or electric vehicle during low-tariff hours, such as overnight. This smart feature helps maximise savings by using grid power only when it's cheapest – ideal for homeowners on variable-rate energy plans.
Truly Multifunctional – Flexible Operation Modes
Whether you have batteries or not, the S6 Hybrid Inverter is built to adapt. It can run in on-grid mode, where it uses solar directly while drawing from the grid as needed, in hybrid mode to balance solar, battery, and grid input, or in full off-grid mode for remote applications. It also features an independent AC output port for backup loads, which remains powered even if the grid goes down – ensuring critical appliances like fridges, lighting, or internet routers keep running during outages.
