Library to interface Sunsynk Hybrid Inverters

Project description

Sunsynk Inverters

This repo enables access to Sunsynk Hybrid Inverter through a Python 3 library. It also provides an Add-On that can be installed in the Home Assistant OS.

See https://www.sunsynk.org/ for more information on Sunsynk inverters.

This code was developed on a Sunsynk 5.5 kWh

DISCLAIMER: Use at your own risk! Especially when writing any settings.

Sunsynk Python Library

codecov

The Python library is available through pip:

pip install sunsynk

Home Assistant Sunsynk Add-On

For the Add-On you require Home Assistant OS and a RS-485 adaptor to connect to your Sunsynk inverter. Sensors are read using the Modbus protocol and sent to a MQTT server. Below an example of the HomeAssistant Energy management dashboard using sensors from the Sunsynk.

Hardware

I used a RS485 adaptor sourced from Banggood, very similar to this

Mine is wired to the Sunsynk BMS 485 port (top left). I also have a RS485 port (bottom right) but this did not work.

The wiring and Ethernet color code to an RJ-45 plug crimped according to TI-568A. RJ45 requires a twisted pair, but you can use either TI-568A or TI-568B
