Deye SUN-5K-SG05LP1-EU-AM2-P single-phase hybrid inverter

The Deye SUN-5K-SG05LP1-EU-AM2-P hybrid inverter: 5 kW versatile, multi-grid, excluding Belgium The Deye SUN-5K-SG05LP1-EU-AM2-P is a 5 kW 48V single-phase hybrid inverter from the SG05LP1 range, enhanced with the AM2-P suffix which indicates its ability to operate on multiple types of electricity grids. With 8,000 Wp of connectable panels, an exceptional battery charging current of 120 A and a maximum output power of 5,500 VA, it is one of the most powerful 5 kW hybrid inverters in its class. Important before purchasing: this inverter delivers a maximum AC output of 5,500 VA, which exceeds the regulatory limit of 5,000 VA imposed for single-phase installations in Belgium. It cannot be installed as a single-phase system in Belgium. It is designed for France, Luxembourg, Switzerland and any country without this regulatory restriction. For Belgium, please consider the [Deye SUN-5K-SG04LP1-BE Synergrid].

The AM2-P architecture: what does it mean?

The AM2-P suffix distinguishes this model from standard EU versions. It indicates compatibility with several electrical network architectures:

• Single-phase L/N/PE 220/230V — standard European residential grid (France, Luxembourg, Switzerland, etc.)
• Split-phase L1/L2/N(PE) 120/240V — North American grid and certain countries in Africa and Asia
• 2/3-phase 208V — North American light industrial network

This versatility makes it an ideal choice for installers working across multiple markets or on projects in areas with non-standard grid configurations.

8,000 Wp of connectable PV: the highest potential in the 5 kW range

This is the model’s number one technical advantage. With a maximum PV power of 8,000 Wp (compared to 6,000–7,500 Wp for other 5 kW inverters on the market), you can connect:

• 16 to 20 panels of 400–500 Wp across 2 independent MPPT channels
• An input current of 18+18 A (max ISC 27+27 A) — the highest in the SG05LP1 range
• The MPPT range of 150 to 425 V (max 500 V) allows for great flexibility in string wiring
• Overpanelling (PV oversizing) is made easier: you maximise output during periods of low sunlight (morning, evening, cloudy days) without the risk of overloading

120 A battery charging current: ultra-fast charging

With 120 A charge and discharge current, this model recharges your battery much faster than a standard inverter:

• A 5 kWh battery (100 Ah / 48V) recharges in around 50 minutes — a full battery first thing in the morning
• Capable of discharging up to 5,760 W from the battery (120 A × 48V) for peak consumption
• Overnight charging from the grid during off-peak hours is faster and therefore more cost-effective in Time of Use mode

What this inverter actually does

• It converts the energy from your solar panels into 230 V AC electricity with a maximum efficiency of 97.6% and MPPT efficiency exceeding 99%
• It stores the surplus in your 48V battery for use in the evening, at night or during a power cut — with an exceptional charging current of 120 A
• It feeds any surplus energy not stored back into the grid in accordance with local regulations (feed-in enabled)
• It automatically switches to the battery in the event of a power cut, with a peak power output equal to twice the rated power for 10 seconds

With 12 to 16 solar panels (6 to 8 kWp) and a 10 kWh battery, a 120 to 160 m² home can achieve 65 to 80% self-consumption, representing an estimated saving of between €900 and €1,400 per year.
