ENPHASE IQ8HC MICROINVERTER
IQ8HC-72-M-US
Enphase IQ8HC Microinverter
384 VA Peak Output | 240V Split-Phase | Made in the USA
The Enphase IQ8HC is part of the groundbreaking IQ8 Series—the industry’s first microgrid-forming, software-defined microinverters with split-phase AC power conversion. Powered by Enphase’s proprietary application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), the IQ8HC operates efficiently in both grid-tied and off-grid modes (with System Controller 2), offering unmatched flexibility, reliability, and performance.
Designed to work seamlessly with Enphase's IQ Battery, IQ Gateway, and Enphase App, the IQ8HC brings next-level intelligence and energy independence to your solar system. Built to handle modern high-powered PV modules, this microinverter is UL listed for PV rapid shutdown and meets the latest grid compliance standards.
