The Enphase three-phase Q-Relay is an essential protection and decoupling device that ensures your solar installation complies with grid standards. This smart relay acts as a safety circuit breaker, capable of instantly isolating your microinverters from the electrical grid in the event of a voltage or frequency anomaly, thus ensuring optimal protection for equipment and people.
A true centrepiece of the Enphase Energy ecosystem, the Q-Relay (3P) is designed to work in harmony with the Envoy-S or IQ Gateway. It continuously monitors the three phases of the system and controls automatic reconnection once grid conditions have stabilised. This module is essential for the proper functioning of IQ7 and IQ8 microinverters, ensuring the safety of your solar panels while simplifying the wiring in your electrical panel.
The technical advantages of the three-phase Q-Relay include:
- Integrated protection against frequency and voltage variations (VDE standard).
- Simplified installation on DIN rail for time savings during assembly.
- Intelligent disconnection management on all three phases for total safety.
Installation of a Q-Relay is mandatory to validate the Enphase warranty and ensure reliable and compliant energy production over the long term.

Enphase three-phase Q relay - Intelligent decoupling protection
The Enphase 3-Phase Q-Relay (Q-RELAY-3P-INT ) is an intelligent 4-pole decoupling protection device designed for photovoltaic installations with Enphase IQ7 and IQ8 series microinverters. It continuously monitors the grid and automatically disconnects the microinverters in the event of a grid fault, in accordance with strict European regulations.
This relay is essential for Enphase three-phase installations to ensure compliance with grid safety standards and to enable automatic reconnection when normal conditions are restored.
Grid safety and compliance
The four-pole Q Relay monitors power system parameters in real time and reacts instantly to faults:
- Voltage monitoring: Automatic detection of overvoltage and undervoltage on each phase (L1, L2, L3)
- Frequency monitoring: Protection against frequency variations (min f / max f)
- DC injection detection: Continuous measurement of DC injection to protect the network
- Four-pole isolation: Physical disconnection of all phases (L1, L2, L3) and neutral (N)
- Automatic reconnection: Automatic re-establishment of connection when normal network conditions return
Regulatory compliance: The Q Relay meets the strict requirements of the European decoupling protection standards for grid-connected photovoltaic installations (IEC 61010, EN 61010-1).
Intelligent operation with Envoy-S
The Q Relay works in perfect synergy with the Enphase Envoy-S gateway for centralised, intelligent management:
- Communication via Envoy-S: The relay receives its commands and transmits its status via the Envoy-S gateway.
- Remote software updates: Relay firmware can be updated via the Enphase cloud
- Flexible configuration: The relay can be configured to monitor 1, 2 or 3 phases depending on your installation
- Real-time monitoring: View relay status via the Enphase Enlighten application
Quick and easy installation
Designed to facilitate the work of installers, the three-phase Q Relay stands out for its ease of installation:
- Standard 35mm DIN rail mounting: Quick installation in any electrical panel
- Compact and lightweight: Only 107mm wide (approx. 6 DIN modules)
- Clear terminal blocks: Easy identification of inputs (L1, L2, L3, N) and outputs
- Integrated diagnostic LEDs: 4 red/green LEDs for instantaneous display of the status of each phase and tripping conditions
