Solis Energy Storage 5kW 5G Hybrid Inverter with DC Switch
The Solis 5kW Hybrid 5G Inverter (S5-EH1P5K-L / RHI-5K-48ES-5G, part no. SOL-5K-RHI-48ES-5G-DC) is the mid-range model in the Solis single-phase hybrid series, delivering 5,000W rated AC output with a full 5kW backup port — the largest backup capacity in the RHI-5G range for single-phase installations. This makes it the preferred choice for homes with higher overnight consumption, EV charging, larger battery banks, or any property where power-cut resilience for critical loads above 3kW is required. Important: the 5kW output exceeds the G98 threshold of 3.68kW, so G99 DNO approval must be obtained before connection to the grid. Two independent 600V DC MPPT trackers, 97.5% peak efficiency, fanless passive cooling, IP65, 7-inch colour LCD, integrated DC switch, SolisCloud WiFi monitoring. 48V LFP battery compatible (Pylontech, Dyness, BYD and others). CE, UKCA, TÜV SÜD certified.
| Model | Rated output | Backup port | Max batt. current | DNO route | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3.6kW | 3,600W | 3,000W | 100A | G98 (notify within 28 days) | Most domestic; G98 simplicity |
| ★ 5kW (this product) | 5,000W | 5,000W | 100A | G99 (prior approval) | Larger homes; EV; max backup power |
| 6kW | 6,000W | 5,000W | 100A | G99 (prior approval) | Largest PV arrays; max generation |
The 5kW and 6kW share the same backup port rating (5,000W / 22A) and the same 100A battery charge/discharge capability. The only practical difference between them is rated grid output (5,000W vs 6,000W) and the PV array size they can accommodate.
