Planning and site preparations
The Pedestal Mount can be used to mount one IQ Battery 5P on a level
oor. This section provides guidelines on how to choose and prepare a oor
surface, and to determine the amount of space needed to meet spacing
requirements when installing IQ Battery 5P units on a Pedestal Mount. Follow
these instructions in addition to the site preparation instructions mentioned in
the IQ Battery 5P Quick Install Guide.
NOTE: In locations such as garages, local requirements may
✓
exist to additionally prevent damage to the equipment from
vehicles. Make sure to check local building codes for requirements.
* Only four M10 at washers are required for the installation. The remaining
four washers can be used to level uneven surfaces.
NOTE: The top shield provided with IQ Battery 5P is not required
✓
for installing the battery on a pedestal mount. Installers can
dispose it as per local guidelines.

SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This guide contains important instructions that you must follow during the installation and maintenance of the Enphase IQ Battery(ies). Failing to follow any of these instructions may void the warranty (enphase.com/warranty).
In Case of Fire or other Emergency
In all cases:
•
If safe to do so, switch o the AC breaker for the IQ Battery 5P circuit, and if an
isolator switch is present, switch o the AC isolator for the IQ Battery 5P circuit.
•
Contact the re department or other required emergency response team.
•
Evacuate the area.
•
Contact Enphase customer support at https://enphase.com/contact/support.
In case of re:
•
When safe, use a re extinguisher. Suitable types are A, B, and C dry chemical
re extinguishers. Additional extinguishing media include carbon dioxide or
alcohol-resistant foams.
In case of ooding:
• Stay out of the water if any part of the IQ Battery(ies) or wiring is submerged.
• If possible, protect the system by nding and stopping the source of the water,
and pumping it away.
• If water has contacted Enphase equipment, such as IQ Battery(ies), IQ
System Controller, IQ Combiner, or IQ Gateway, they should be replaced. Please
work with your installer to evaluate the next steps.
In case of unusual noise, smell, or smoke:
• Ensure nothing is in contact with the IQ Battery(ies) or in the venting area of the
IQ Battery(ies).
•
Ventilate the room.
In the event of an electrolyte leakage:
The Enphase IQ Battery 5P has a lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery that contains
organic electrolyte and is sealed in a protective case. Leaked electrolyte is toxic
and highly ammable. Leaked electrolyte is colorless and has a sweet odor. Electrolyte uid tends to evaporate quickly, leaving behind a white grainy substance. If an
odor is obvious, proceed to the following steps:
•
• Outside United States Territories and Canada: +01 (813) 248-0585
DANGER! DO NOT TOUCH OR INGEST ANY LIQUID SUSPECTED TO BE
BATTERY ELECROLYTE.
• Evacuate personnel to a safe area and keep unauthorized personnel away.
• Isolate the spill area to a minimum distance of 75 feet (25 meters).
• Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, sparks, ames, hot equipment) in the
immediate area around the spill.
• Do not touch or walk through spilled material.
• Avoid breathing vapors. Ensure adequate ventilation.
• Use personal protective equipment.
• Emergency Telephone Number (Chem Tel):
• Inside United States Territories and Canada: (800) 255-3924
