Overview: Enphase IQ Combiner 6C with IQ Gateway Purpose:The IQ Combiner 6C consolidates multiple system functions into a single outdoor-rated enclosure, combining PV interconnection, metering, communications, load control, and breaker spaces for solar, battery, load, and EV charger circuits. It simplifies installation and centralizes control for residential Enphase Energy Systems. Key Capabilities: Integrated IQ Gateway: Provides system connectivity for monitoring and remote control—supports Wi-Fi, Ethernet, Bluetooth, and cellular via Enphase Mobile Connect. Revenue-Grade Metering: Built-in current transformers (CTs) measure PV production, battery flow, load consumption, and EV charging. Load Control: Onboard load controller with breaker space for heavy loads (e.g., HVAC, water heater) for optimized energy management. Rapid Shutdown Compliance: Pre-installed UL 489 certified Rapid Shutdown breaker meets NEC 690.12 safety requirements without extra hardware. Simplified Installation: Pre-wired components, multiple conduit entry options, and single stud mounting reduce field labor and complexity. Integration & System Compatibility Works with: Enphase IQ Series microinverters (IQ6, IQ7, IQ8) Enphase IQ Battery 10C (energy storage) IQ Meter Collar (for whole-home backup with automatic grid transfer) Supports external consumption/third-party PV monitoring and EV charger metering when properly configured. Breaker support (typical): Up to 5 PV branch breakers Up to 2 battery circuits 1 EV charger circuit Space for a load control breaker (configurable) Technical Highlights Voltage: 120/240 VAC, 60 Hz split-phase Current Ratings: PV: ~64–80 A continuous (aggregate) Battery: 2 × 59 A EV charger: ~48 A Load controller: ~48–80 A depending on breaker choice Enclosure: NEMA 3R outdoor rated Warranty: ~15 years (combiner hardware), ~5 years on cellular modem
