The IQ System Controller connects the home to grid power, the IQ Battery system, and solar PV. It provides microgrid interconnect device (MID) functionality by automatically detecting and seamlessly transitioning the home energy system from grid power to backup power in the event of a grid failure. It consolidates interconnection equipment into a single enclosure and streamlines grid-independent capabilities of PV and storage installations by providing a consistent, pre-wired solution for residential applications.
